Unexpected events, errors and application crashes during a run session can disrupt your run session and distort results. This is a problem particularly when tests run unattended - the test pauses until you perform the operation needed to recover. To handle such situation, QTP enables you to create recovery scenarios and associate them with specific tests.
If you can predict that a certain event may happen at a specific point in your test, it is highly recommended to handle that event directly within your test by adding steps such as if statements or optional steps, rather than depending on a recovery scenario. By default, recovery scenario operation are activated only after a step returns an error.
