Problem with robotframework on ubuntu

[bialek-luk]

After recent ubuntu updates i get Android keywords stopped wroking:

AndroidLibrary.Screen should contain text

results in

FAIL    TypeError: 'instancemethod' object has no attribute '__getitem__'

and by the way

AndroidLibrary.Capture Screenshot

FAIL    ConnectionError: HTTPConnectionPool(host='localhost', port=34777): Max retries exceeded with url: /screenshot (Caused by <class 'httplib.BadStatusLine'>: '')

I have python2.7.3 installed and about 2 weeks ago everything worked ok, but i think some package update might brake something. I've already reinstalled calabash, robotframework, robotframework-androidlibrary, requests... Could you at least give me a hint what may cause such errors?

The output from first error is:

Timeout 1 minute exceeded. The last error was: TypeError: 'instancemethod' object has no attribute '__getitem__'

The application tested is up and running on the emulator and the test fails.

Hey! Thanks for the bug report!

Could you run Robot Framework with the -L TRACE option to get more debug info and post that here ? Also: Which version of Ubuntu/Robot Framework/Python/this library are you using ? There could be multiple installations on your system so you need to figure out which one is actually used.

About the Capture Screenshot bug: That's most likely because the calabash testserver crashed in the background. You can obtain a logcat [ http://developer.android.com/tools/help/logcat.html ] output while executing the tests to see where it crashed — then either report a bug to calabash-android or fix the issue in the app you're testing. HTH.

We've experienced this with older versions of calabash-android. You might want to upgrade that and try again.

I solved this problem by downgrading python requests to version requests==0.14.2
