Selenium test library for Robot Framework

Introduction

SeleniumLibrary is a test library for Robot Framework that enables testing of web applications. As the name suggests, it uses Selenium via Selenium-RC internally. Currently, not all features of Selenium are implemented in SeleniumLibrary, but most of them are quite trivial to implement when someone needs them.

Usage

To run tests with Robot Framework and SeleniumLibrary following things must be done

• SeleniumLibrary must be taken into use in Robot test data. See Robot Framework user guide__ for more information.
• Selenium server must be started with command java -jar [path_to_server]/selenium_server.jar, where [path_to_server] depends on platform. On Windows it will be '[PythonDir]\Lib\site-packages\SeleniumLibrary\lib' and on Linux it is '/usr/lib/python[version]/site-packages/SeleniumLibrary/lib'
