Regarding PhantomJS

[JaYa]

I am exploring headless browser automation using robot framework.

Followed steps from https://github.com/datakurre/phantomrobot

when i execute sample script which has below coding:

    Open Browser    https://calendar.google.com/calendar/render?pli=1#settings-general_11    phantomjs

Getting below error:

Starting test: Test Example.Test_gmail

20161109 13:39:11.610 :  INFO : Opening browser 'phantomjs' to base url 'https://calendar.google.com/calendar/render?pli=1#settings-general_11'

20161109 13:39:11.636 :  FAIL : No browser is open

20161109 13:39:11.639 :  WARN : Keyword 'Capture Page Screenshot' could not be run on failure: No browser is open

20161109 13:39:11.640 :  FAIL : 

WebDriverException: Message: 'phantomjs' executable needs to be in PATH

Does anyone worked on headless browser automation using phantomJS+ Robot Framework?

Please redirect me to the correct steps to be followed and if you any web page links which are self explanatory

Hi,

Take a look at the Ghostdriver . I am using it for my headless tests

You just have to use Selenium2Library using Open Browser     URL     browser=phantomjs.

(Sometimes is better to use Create Webdriver)

His problem was 

WebDriverException: Message: 'phantomjs' executable needs to be in PATH

And I believe it is because he did not install phantomjs

Thanks all, i worked for me.

My next exercise is to execute all test cases which are coded in robot framework using PhantomJs.

My script after login checks title of page using robot keyword " Wait Until Page Contains".

When i execute the test cases its getting failed with below error:

20161110 11:49:56.212 :  INFO : Opening browser 'phantomjs' to base url “URL of our site'

20161110 11:51:08.202 :  INFO : </td></tr><tr><td colspan="3"><a href="selenium-screenshot-1.png"><img src="selenium-screenshot-1.png" width="800px"></a>

20161110 11:51:08.203 :  FAIL : Text ’Title of OUR Site' did not appear in

Could any one let me know, for executing robot test cases with phantomjs , do we need to do any modification( apart from browser name as 'phantomjs' in Open Browser keyword)

Followed below steps for creating symlink.
