create driver in python and call in robot framework

[damodha...@gmail.com]

Hi all,

Can anyone help me to create driver instance in python and proceed with robot framework.

I have created browser instance in python but in robot getting issue "No browser is open"

Thanks

Robot Framework doesn't talk to web browsers directly, it uses a library, so I'll guess you are using SeleniumLibrary? not BrowserLibrary? please don't leave people guessing in future mention which libraries you are using and you'll get better answers.

If you are using SeleniumLibrary you need to install the web driver for your browser, I have found the easiest way is to install webdrivermanager and use that to manage your web drivers:

1) pip install webdrivermanager

Then for each browser you want to use:
webdrivermanager <browser>

e.g.

webdrivermanager chrome

webdrivermanager firefox

webdrivermanager edge

Hope that helps,

Dave.

This can be a useful resource. 

While doing the Selenium automation common challenge is that we have to run whole test after fix from script failover.

 

I am sharing a good video to overcome the same and automate the test step by step instead.

Hello, 

Please help to understand more on webdrivermanager. I have installed webdrivermanager (installed version - 0.10.0) and I called the library in the Test Suite but the library is not supported for opening the browsers. 

Library    webdrivermanager   

webdrivermanager   chrome

Thanks,

Tina

Hi Tina,

No it's not a library you include in your test case, you just run the "webdrivermanager chrome" command before you run your test and it will install the selenium driver for the version of chrome you have. you might need to run it again if chrome auto-updates to a newer version.

Dave.
