Comment 3 for bug 1471737

Ok, I just reverified this.

1. std.javascript indeed raises ActionException if we throw it via script itself
2. ActionException leads to ERROR in action, then it leads to ERROR in with-items and fail the whole workflow execution.

See example:

Have the following workflow:

---
version: "2.0"

name: test_js

workflows:
  js_test:
    type: direct

    tasks:
      task1:
        with-items: num in <% list(range(1, 10)) %>
        action: std.javascript
        input:
          script: |
            if ($.num % 2 == 0) {
              throw 'JS exception'
            }
            else {
              return $.num
            }
          context: <% $ %>

And here is the result:

workflow-execution:
