How to pass multiple variables to robot.run()

[Mohan R]

I have a test runner script which imports robot and calls robot.run()

It was working fine, until I tried to pass in multiple variables using variable=

robot.run(...,  variable='var1:value1', variable='var2:value2', ...)

I get the following error: SyntaxError: keyword argument repeated

Googling around I guess this error is something new since python 2.6 and it is a python specific error rather than a robot specific one.

Regardless, I would like to know how to pass multiple variables to robot.run()

PS:

* When running directly from the command line, I am able to pass in multiple variables to run.py

* I can run robot only through my test runner due to various needs.

Hi!

From running help(robot.run)
....
Options that can be given on the command line multiple times can be
passed as lists like `include=['tag1', 'tag2']`.
...
