Robot Framework in action

Robot Framework is a generic and open source test automation framework for acceptance testing and acceptance test-driven development (ATDD). It has an easy-to-use tabular test data syntax and it utilizes a keyword-driven testing approach. Its testing capabilities can be extended by test libraries implemented either with Python or Java, and users can create new higher-level keywords from existing ones using the same syntax that is used for creating test cases.

During this workshop you will learn how to setup the testing environment for web-testing using Robot Framework. We start with the high level test case description and go all the way to the technical implementation.

Key learnings:

  • Good test case design
  • How to structure your automated test cases
  • How to create keywords with Robot Framework
  • How to take external libraries into use
  • Basics of web testing with Robot Framework
  • Good test automation practices

Participants need a laptop and python 2.7.9 < or 3.6.5 < installed on those.
