This is my robot framework playground :)

Robotframework training

#-------------------------------

• few important commands
  • use this command to install robotframework :
  • pip install robotframework
  • pip install robotframework-seleniumlibrary
  • to see all the installed packages on pip use : pip list
  • few commands to run your tests using terminal or CMD :
  • to run specific test file:
  • robot test/testfilename.robot
  • to generate results report:
  • robot -d results test/testfilename.robot
  • to run the test with specific browser:
  • robot -d results -v BROWSER:chrome tests
  • to run all the test files in tests folder:
  • robot -d results tests
  • to run specific tags:
  • robot -d results -i smoke tests/testcasename.robot
  • to give a title to the test execution report:
  • robot -d results -N"REGRESSION RUN" tests/testcasename.robot
  • to show the debug logs either sending the log level in cmd
  • or in the script itself -> Set Log Level Debug
  • robot -d results -L debug tests
  • robot -d results --l debug tests
  • pass environment and browser variables in cmd
  • robot -d results -v BROWSER:firefox -v ENVIRONMENT:formy Tests/01__registration_tests/01__User_register.robot
  • use the following command if you want to run specific test suites
  • robot -d results --suite api_tests --suite registration_tests --suite login_tests tests

The default structure of the robotframework project should be as below:

#------------------------------- ###ProjectBase - /Tests -> test scripts * UserRegister.robot * UserLogin.robot * searchForProduct.robot * addProductToCart.robot - /Resources * Common.robot -> setup and tearDown keywords * Register.robot * login.robot * search.robot * /PO-PageObjects * HomePage.robot * LoginPage.robot * SearchResultsPage.robot * ProductsPage.robot * CartPage.robot - /Results

#Variables Scope #-------------------------------

• Global-accessible from all tests & keywords
• Suite-accessible to tests in the suite only
• Test case-accessible within the test case only
• keyword-only accessible within the keyword
• Precedence
  • Command > script > keyword
• Naming Convention
  • Global- @{UPPER_CASE}
  • testcase/keyword- @{lower_case}

#Architectural Vision #-------------------------------

• Script
  • Common
  • App Keywords PageObject1 PageObject2
• Selenium Library
• Selenium Web drivers

#BUILT-IN library

• log/Comment
• Conversions
• "Run Keyword(s)"Options
• Repeat keyword
• set variable (test, suit, global)
• Should (Contain | be equal) / should not
• sleep
• wait until keyword succeeds (!)

#Folder Structure in robot framework

• if i have my tests in a sub folder in tests folder
• use : ../../Resources/Common.robot
• if the tests are in the tests folder and not a sub folder
• use : ../Resources/Common.robot #Jenkins
• after downloading the jenkins.war file
• go to cmd and run these 2 commands
• D:
• cd D:\Study materials and projects\Automation practices\Jenkins
• java -Dhudson.model.DirectoryBrowserSupport.CSP= -jar jenkins.war
• go to localhost:8080 and enter the password you get from the cmd
