Support for Seleniumlibrary and other external libs #4

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create test with selenium library keyword
2. Run

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Selenium test should run.
Instead, I get:
"Suite setup failed:
No keyword with name 'Start Selenium Server' found.

Also suite teardown failed:
No keyword with name 'Stop Selenium Server' found."
Obviously the selenium library cannot be found. 

Is there a way to provide it automatically without manual installation of the 
selenium library?
I would also require other libraries, such as the database library. How can I 
do this?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.0.1
Windows

Please provide any additional information below.

There is a similar issue here, but it is a general problem: How to get needed 
libraries during a maven build:
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework-seleniumlibrary/issues/detail?id=132

Can we use easy_install somehow.

Or maybe -XBootclasspath? See

How about --pythonpath support?

I've managed to package the seleniumlibrary with rf, following the description 
by Laurent Carbonneaux 
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework-seleniumlibrary/issues/detail?id=132#c6,
 now I can call the selenium tests with server startup and shutdown like this: 

\src\test\resources>java -cp robotframework-selenium-2.5.6.jar 
org.robotframework.RobotFramework <suitefolder>

For this setup, selenium-server.jar has to be in resources/lib, but need not be 
in the rf+selenium jar (although Laurent says you should only add the py files, 
he lists the selenium-server.jar as content file of the combined rf+sel jar, 
which seems not to work)

So far so good, however, what about other libs? I wonder if the rf commandline 
option -P might be helpful and why it is not supported by the jybot goal. Are 
there any known issues with the --pythonPath option?

Having Selenium library included in this plugin would be absolutely fantastic.

I tried bundling Selenium Library into the Maven plugin using Mr 
Carbonneaux’s instructions and it seemed to work perfectly, so that works as 
an intermediate solution. Of course, it’d be even better if Selenium library 
were included in the standard distribution of the plugin.

As far as I can see, the Selenium server doesn’t necessarily need to be 
included, either, because you can use the Selenium Maven Plugin 
(http://mojo.codehaus.org/selenium-maven-plugin/) to start the server in the 
pre-integration-test phase, run your Robot test cases in the integration-test 
phase, and stop the server in post-integration-test phase.

Either way, many thanks for creating the plugin; I’m already finding it 
extremely useful!

didn't put python path flag as I haven't personally tested it. will check it 
out if it works. otherwise, i'll try to put a hook somewhere so that other 
libraries could be used.

i'm targeting 1.1 release within the week. hopefully this should make it

I created some instructions to make this work on trunk version:

http://code.google.com/p/robotframework-maven-plugin/wiki/UseWithSeleniumLibrary

If someone can verify that this works for them, I'll considering releaseing 
this ASAP.

I tried it, but it didn't work for me: there seems to be something wrong with 
the variableFile property. It worked for me in 1.0.1, but 1.1-SNAPSHOT isn't 
reading the file defined in the variableFile property at all: it complains 
about unrecognized variables. I didn't change any of the settings related to 
that, either.

When I reverted to 1.0.1 (and my custom version of the plugin that includes 
Selenium library), the variableFile property started working again.

oops sorry, variableFile is now variableFiles in 1.1-SNAPSHOT in order to 
accommodate maven convention:

<variableFiles>
  <variableFile>filehere</variableFile>
</variableFiles>

btw, all parameters that are Lists are now pluralized except for:

metadata

All right, I switched to the correct variableFiles element syntax, and from 
what I can tell, everything seems to be working perfectly. Thanks!

awesome. thanx! i've been doing some testing as well and seems to be doing 
fine. will probably do a release within the week once i'm confident

It works for me as well. I tried with Franz See's DatabaseLibrary combined with 
JayDeBeApi and the Oracle Driver. If you need to add jar dependencies, you can 
do it by adding it as dependency to the robotframework plugin. Simple!

I tested the libdoc goal, too. It works as designed. 

From my point of view, please release as soon as you can. 

Can we bump up the rf version to robotframework 2.5.6?

Concerning libdoc: it is a bit difficult to use if you keep resources and tests 
in the same folder, which seems to be a common practice. Libdoc cannot handle 
test cases, only resources. A future improvement might be to have a fileset 
with includes and excludes which runs against the default tests folder. I'll 
write an issue for that and see if I can come up with something.

thanx!

when you say add dependency, did you mean something like this:

     <plugin>
        <groupId>com.googlecode</groupId>
        <artifactId>robotframework-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>1.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
        <executions>
          <execution>
            <goals>
              <goal>run</goal>
            </goals>
          </execution>
        </executions>
        <dependencies>
          <dependency>
            <groupId>group</groupId>
            <artifactId>artifact</artifactId>
            <version>1</version>
          </dependency>
        </dependencies>
      </plugin>

yup i'm planning on upgrading it to 2.5.6. if the maven central repo still 
doesn't host it, might as well provide a make shift version here. 

these are actually stuff i want to be part of 1.1. as well as the libdoc issue 
you mentioned above. i already have some idea. i'll file an issue. please 
comment there.

Precisely. Here is my classpath dependency extension which allows to use the 
oracle driver with jaydebeapi and Python DatabaseLibrary:

<plugin>
    <groupId>com.googlecode</groupId>
    <artifactId>robotframework-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>1.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <phase>integration-test</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>run</goal>
            </goals>
        </execution>
    </executions>
    </configuration>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.oracle</groupId>
            <artifactId>ojdbc14</artifactId>
            <scope>test</scope>
            <version>10.2.0.3.0</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</plugin>
