What are you going to test here?

Dynamic properties of the decision form?
That simulation do not loop endlessly?
How many "goto step 7" do you expect?
Is the number of iterations arbitrary or fixed?

My advise is to try everything you can to avoid
conditional logic in tests.
(as opposed to putting a lot of effort in making
conditional logic possible)
