Getting a list of failed asserts in the Gauge report every time one fails

Question

I am using Gauge from Thoughtworks to Automate my UI Tests. Every time that an assert fails in my tests it lists the message indicated in the assert.

For example when this code fails from Scenario #1

Assert.True(listsMatch, "There are differences between the Test Dropdown List on the Report Template Editor page and the reference list");

This message goes to the Gauge Automation report in Scenario #1 report

There are differences between the Test Dropdown List on the Report Template Editor page and the reference list

  Expected: True

  But was:  False

The issue comes when the next assert fails (in the next scenario) that all of the messages for the previous assert failures are all listed (for both of the failed scenarios) instead of just the new one (for the second failed scenario). For example the output would look like this, with the previously failed asserts message from scenario #1 listed below as "2)", and the currently failed asserts message from scenario #2 listed below as "1)"

Multiple failures or warnings in test:

  1)   The OK button was not visible to click on after 6 seconds

  Expected: True

  But was:  False



  2)   There are differences between the Test Dropdown List on the Report Template Editor page and the reference list

  Expected: True

  But was:  False

How do I only get the new assert message to be output to the report? Is there a way to do this?

I haven't been able to see any possible solutions for this

What I would expect is that for any given assert only the message related to that assert would be output to the Gauge Automation report instead of having a list of every failure in all tests run.

One additional detail that I thought of is that the asserts are in different scenarios.

Requested code examples (Note this is example code to illustrate the distributed nature of the Asserts. I think that I've caught most minor issues in making the example, but if I've missed defining a variable or something minor realize this is just an example, not the actual code I run): '''c#
