The calculation of progress is only an estimate - these are the steps FinalBuilder makes to estimate the run progress:1.

  1. When a project first starts, the progress is set to zero and the progress bar total is calculated.

  1. If there was no last successful run, then FinalBuilder calculates how many actions are in your project and uses that as the total.

For some projects, the above methods to calculate the progress may not be adequate.  For example, a project may have two modes (eg. Full and BugFix).  The two different modes may have very different progress totals, and using the last successful run action count method will only work some of the time.  You can override the estimated total using a either the script method "SetEstimatedProgressTotal", or by using the Set Build Status Message action.
