about ending sessions without starting them

I thought you could just do [Session_End:-Name='mySessionName'] to
end a session - WITHOUT first starting the session. BUT, that doesn't seem to work. It looks like you must start the session before you can end it. Can someone else try the code below and let me know if that's what they see? Do Test 1 before Test 2 and see if Test 2 ends the session and creates a new one (it doesn't for me). You'll see the same sessionID at the bottom of Test 2 (instead of a brand new session ID). Thanks.

You are using the same session name between the two tests and
probably the same browser. If you either use different browsers for each test, or use different names for the sessions in the test files, then you should get the expected results. --steve On 10/23/09 at 7:08 PM, lasso@...

I have run into this too and can confirm your experience. From my tests you do have to first do a session_start before issuing a session_end. It took me almost an entire day at work to troubleshoot an issue I was having with sessions before I discovered this. (With help from the wonderful people on this list.
