I’m testing my workflow with an existing contact and running through all the various scenarios by selecting the different branches. I randomly get the error below. It’s random and different branches, different scenarios and sometimes I get this error, but still receive the correct test error.

**We couldn’t get the test results.**

**Something went wrong, please try again.**

It’s hard to test when this is happening, does anyone know what may be causing this error?

Thanks for your post @VRaguso!  
That is an interesting one given how erratic it is. I wonder if it is due to the frequency/amount of tests you are running. To confirm, have you gotten this error consistently/repeatedly with any specific branch or scenario?

Best,

I am experiencing this error as well. This only seems to occur when I check the box to have the emails in the workflow sent to me.

My workflow is a re-engagement style campaign. Contacts enter the workflow once the first email in the series is delivered. There are 4 subsequent messages.

If the following one of the following goals is met they are unenrolled from the sequence:

- reply to any of the emails within the sequence
- use the meeting scheduler link to book a meeting
- or after a call from our Acct Manager assigned to this list meeting is scheduled

they remain enrolled in the sequence if the following criteria occur:

- they do nothing
- they open emails but take no additional action

All contacts who finish the workflow (essentially without taking any action) will be dumped into a static list so that we can pull them from our marketing contacts.

When I test - I receive all of the emails but I also get the same error above. Not sure how to get around this. I am going to publish this workflow and kick it off with the trigger.

We will see what happens - but I would like to know why it’s occuring.
