How to test if a string contains one value of theses values

[Cyril H]

Hi,

Having a string value, how to test if it contains one value of a list?

Here's what I'm trying to test :

*** Variables ***

@{list}    value1    value2

*** Test Cases ***

(...)

${mystring} = Get Table Cell tableId 1 1

Should Contain ${mystring} @{list}

==> I want this line failed if ${mystring} doesn't contain value1 or value 2

Any idea???

Thanks a lot

Ugh

Have looked Collections library keyword: List Should Contain Value keyword[1]

Thank you for your reply Tatu.

Yes,  I already looked collection library. It doesn't help.  

Keyword like "List Should Contain" looks for value in list. In my case, I don't want to match my entire string with my collection. 

Example: Value1 and Value2 don't have to match string1 (List should contain's fonctionality). 

I want to know if string 1 contains Value1 or Value2. If it doesn't, my test fail.

exactly this in the new Robot version 2.8.6:

Collections: New keywords for matching list items using glob/regexp patterns optionally case/space sensitively

RF does not have a Contains keyword - only assertions like Should Contain. In this case you are better writing your own keyword for this. Building a regexp based on an unknown number and content of a list is just too painful in RF syntax. So just using evaluate to do in a user keyword what the Python keyword does. FYI namespace arg to Evaluate not available until 2.8.4, and may show in red in RIDE.

def should_contain_one_of_these_substrings(value, *substrings):

    if not any(substring in value for substring in substrings):

        raise AssertionError("'%s' does not contain one of: %s" % (value, substrings))

Should Contain One Of These Substrings

    [Arguments]    ${value}    @{substrings}

    ${ns}=    Create Dictionary    substrings    ${substrings}    value    ${value}

    ${contains}=    Evaluate    any(substring in value for substring in substrings)    namespace=${ns}

    Run Keyword Unless    ${contains}    Fail    '${value}' does not contain one of: ${substrings}

Test

    Should Contain One Of These Substrings    abcde    bc

    Should Contain One Of These Substrings    abcde    zz    de

    Run Keyword And Expect Error    *    Should Contain One Of These Substrings    abcde    bb

    Run Keyword And Expect Error    *    Should Contain One Of These Substrings    asdf

You can try to convert your list to string and then use Call Method

${myList}  Convert To String @{list}

${isFound} Call Method ${myList} find ${mystring}

Return From Keyword If ${isFound}>=0 True

Kevin,

That is very, very interesting ! 

This is the solution!!!
