RobotFW_KT

Follow these Steps for Getting Started:

1. Download Python

2. Download Pycharm

3. Create new Project and select Python interpreter on your machine (not new Venv)

4. Install the following Libraries:

  1. Selenium
  2. Robotframework-SeleniumLibrary
  3. Robotframework-DatabaseLibrary
  4. Robot Framework
  5.robotframework-pabot

Then install the following plugins:

  1. Robotframework support
  2. Run Robotframework
  3. Intellibot patched SeleniumLibrary

Then restart pycharm after installing plugins and Libs Download Chrome driver or/and Gecko Driver and add it to Path variable or to the same location project created at. For Running Project easily; I added Drivers in Project Path

Test Automation Framework Project for Robot Framework which contains the following layers:

1. POM (Page Object Model) Which contains Keywords for each and every element will be used in each Page for AUT (Application Under Test) Each Keyword usually should contains of: 1. Locator Identifier using ExplicitWaits of Selenium Library 2. Action for the Element like "Click, Input, Select, ..etc"

2. Keywords Which contains Keyword for each Step details needed combined in One Keword. Guys coming from Java or Python this layer like Step definition to get your code organized

3. TestSuites Which contains Test Cases calling Kewords of Keyword level which contains:

   1. Test Setup/ Suite Setup This is used to be executed before Test Steps executed for each Test Cases in Test Case/Suite
   2. Test /Suite Teardown This is used to executed once at the end of Test Case/ suite execution
   3. Test Case Title Which should matches Test Case Titles
   4. [Tags] Which could contains Test Case Tags, IDs in Test Management Tools as well as Smoke-Test, Functionality, ..etc
   5. [Arguments] Which contains Test Arguments as a Parameters to pass Test Data
   6. Test Steps Which calls Keword Name Levels

For Execution use following Command

  robot TestSuites\Login_TestSuite.robot

This command will export by default three types of Reports(log.html, report.html, output.xml "Which we will use later for Test Execution on Test Tools like JIRA")

Project going to be updated Weekly basis and Readme going be modified. Feel Free to Clone, Contribute and Enjoy!

1. Adding Database_Queries.robot
   1. Connection to MySql Database using PyMySQL python client API Library for MySql
   2. Use query keyword for select retrieve values from created DB
   3. Retrive values from query results in @{result_array}
   4. Calling Database_Queries.robot in Keyword common layer Keywords_Login.robot
2. Use --outputdir Flag for generate output.xml, log.html and report.html in different directory. The expected param is relative path directory: robot --outputdir ResultsAndReports/ TestSuites/Login_TestSuite.robot
3. Use -T Flag for generate Reports in a timestamp format. This can be useful to avoid overriding results of cases in parallel execution robot -T --outputdir ResultsAndReports/ TestSuites/Login_TestSuite.robot
