How to use YAML file with robot.

[SIDHARTH RAJ]

Hi All,

can we acess the value of array of objects(key-value pair) from YAML to our Robot testsuite?

.yaml look like :

  DeviceList:

  - Meter: xyz 3PSM
    EPLan: 67.03.03.ad
  - Meter: abc 1PSM
    EPLan: 67.03.03.ac

if yes , than how ?

Thanks !

If it's an imported variable file you would access it just like a list.

in your testsuite only access to variable:

*** Settings ***

Variables     <path of your yaml>     #it's optional, if you want to change with each execution then when you run robot command, send in next parameter: --variableFile <path>  the path of your yaml file.

*** Test Cases ***

Test 1

    Log    message=Variable: ${DeviceList.Meter}

Your yaml file:

  DeviceList:

  - Meter: xyz 3PSM

  - EPLan: 67.03.03.ad

In other yaml file:

  DeviceList:
  - Meter: abc 1PSM
  - EPLan: 67.03.03.ac

Saludos cordiales
