Robot Framework with Selenium - Web Automation

In this session we will go through detailed step by step installation of Robot Framework on Windows platform. We will install Python and Robot framework .

In this session, We will continue where we left of with the installation, We will go ahead and configure Robot framework to use  Selenium libraries.

In this session we will learn how to install and configure Pycharm IDE for development of test cases using Robot Framework. We will make use of intellibot plugin and configure to build Robot Scripts.

In this session we will write our first test case and see how to execute the first robot script through Pycharm

In this session we will write the first test case using Web application. This is a simple UI example. we will build the script and execute and see how the script interacts with UI Components.

In this session we will continue to build the test case which we started off in the earlier session by adding few more keywords. This is a complete test case in itself.

In this session we will go through types of variables (scalar variable to be specific) which can be used within the test suite.

We will also see how to pass in the arguments using Argument tag to the keywords (i.e function)

In this session we will continue with variables where we will see how to use List and Dictionary variables. Here we will see how to define and use the list and dictionary variable elements. Earlier session we have seen how to use Scalar variable.

In this session we will see what are conditions and how to use If-Else condition with an example.

In this session we will see how to use loop i.e. For loop with an example

In this session we will see how to use test template settings, which will make the robot test case data driven. A Simple login UI example which is a data driven test case. We will see Positive and Negative test cases with this data driven example.

In this session we will learn how to use Suite Setup and Suite tear down which gets run whenever we run a particular suite. This keyword will have some common functionality which will be run with every suite.

In this session  we will see how we can use resource file to add difference resource, a particular suite uses and also maintaining the variables using variable file and how to access these within the Suite which is the primary entity in building a sustainable framework.

In this session we will learn how to use synchronization techniques within robot framework. Synchronization is an important concept when we deal with Web Automation. Wait Until or keywords starting with Until , Set Selenium timeout and Set Selenium Speed are the three items which we will see and what their significance in terms of web ui synchronization.

In this session we will learn how to work with some of the common Web Elements and how to interact with them using selenium library keywords.

In this session we will see how to use tags where certain test cases can be tagged as functional, sanity and regression tests. These tags will help us to categorize certain test cases or group of test cases/test suites.

In this session we will take a look at what validations are, why they are important in deciding the result of a test case and which keywords can be used for this validation.

In this video we will go through how to integrate robot tests with CI tool which is Jenkins and how to run them through Jenkins. This video works through step by step process of configuring Jenkins to run robot tests using Jenkins and collect the results of the tests on Jenkins server so that the results can be viewed within Jenkins url. We will see how to  Trigger robot tests manually using Jenkins.
