A sequence contains a series of steps and can consist of the following components:

• Setup step group
• Main step group
• Cleanup step group
• Sequence local variables
• Sequence file global variables
• Sequence parameters
• Callback sequences

The following figure illustrates the structure of a sequence file.

Built-In Sequence Properties

Sequences include built-in properties you can specify using the Sequence Properties dialog box. For example, you can specify that the flow of execution jumps to the Cleanup step group whenever a step sets the status of the sequence to Failed.
