If not could you please let me konw how to do that?

Can you explain how you want to use this information? It is possible to use a Robot Framework Listener to track and publish the start and end events from a particular test case/test suite.

Is this what you're looking for? 

Kind regards,

Anne

As Anne pointed out the elapsed time of the test case can be accessed in a Robot Framework Listener.  The Listener method end_test(...) has this in it attrs var passed to it.

Here is a code snippet from my Listener for integrating to TestRail to record executed test cases:

    def end_test(self, name, attrs):

        # set TR Result data from RF attrs

        result_id = self.result_status_ids[attrs['status']]

        msg = attrs['message'] if attrs['message'] else None

        elapsed_secs = attrs['elapsedtime'] / 1000

        duration = '{}s'.format(elapsed_secs) if elapsed_secs > 0 else '1s'

The end_test 'attrs' argument has a number of data on the just-executed test:

elapsed_secs = attrs['elapsedtime'] / 1000
