red's Issues

Paths and import of libraries

Hello

Amazing plugin! thank you very much! I didnt use too much yet, but the fact that I can debug through the keywords is already something.

While using and configuring a project, some points came up and I would like to know if you could clarify to me:

1. Relative paths
   When I include a path into red.xml to a referenced library, I got a warning saying that it would be better to put a relative path to it and I actually wanted to do that.
   But I couldnt find or figure out how to do it. I saw in one of the images on the documentation and it was something like "folder/file.py" and I tried editing the red.yml myself, but it didnt recognize. Is there a way to use relative paths?
2. Fixing "unknown" keywords or imports
   I have several robot files on my project and all of them are "red" with unknown keyword error or unknown library. Once I open one of them, configure the correct library for that file in red.xml, everything works fine. Then I open a second file, which also has the same libraries that the first file had, but the keywords or libraries were again "red". I thought that if I fix once for a library, it would apply to all robot files that are using that library. Have you seen this problem? Is there a way to have the configuration once set and applies to all files?
3. Running even with errors
   Once I realized the #2 issue, I tried to run the test case without fixing the import of libraries and for my surprise the test was executed successfully. Is this something that you are aware?

Thank you in advance.

Cheers,
Rafael

Fix the problem with library with alias and arguments import

Base on discussion from RF usergroup https://groups.google.com/d/msg/robotframework-users/7RPzHW10t_w/LOXA0JGNGgAJ it seems that we need to join Autodiscover and Quick Fix (CTRL + 1) plus fix problem with aliases, which are treated currently as arguments.

Suggestion: convert Help to Wiki pages

Part of my standard project evaluation is to have a look at the support tickets and the wiki to understand the maturity of the project. To my surprise this project had no wiki pages. Although it didn't deter me, it was surprising to see that the information one would typically find there is part of the code/release as seperate help files.

Even though I think the help files are a good addition to the code, I'd think most developers are connected and the wiki makes for a more dynamic and up-to-date help system. So, perhaps the current help pages can be converted to Wiki pages.

FATAL: Python instalation C:\User\danielm\progs\TestAutomationGX\PortablePython\App has no Robot installed. Fix this problem to build project red.xml

Hello,

We're trying to evaluate the IDE, looks promising!
One problem is that the IDE cannot find the installed robot package in our (portable) python installation and an error is logged:

FATAL: Python instalation C:\User\danielm\progs\TestAutomationGX\PortablePython\App has no Robot installed. Fix this problem to build project red.xml

App\Lib\site-packages contains a "robot" and "robotframework-2.9.2-py2.7.egg-info" package etc., so it looks like its installed correctly (and Ride etc. works as expected)

Also the pip install robotframework says:

Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): robotframework in c:\user\danielm\progs\testautomationgx\portablepython\app\lib\site-packages

How is the package resolving done to find the robot package? By a python env variable or else?
Is the source code available somewhere?

Thanks,

Daniel.

Add posibility to provide arguments for library imports in red.xml

It shall be possible to provide arguments when importing library in red.xml. Otherwise libraries which needs arguments are marked as non-accessible.

FATAL: Missing suite file for execution, current suite name: 'Test_Designs', current keyword: '${i} IN RANGE [ ${timeout} ]' typ='For' args=[]

This keywords does work in RIDE. I can't tell if i'm missing an import or I found a bug.

Run button (Run Configurations) is disabled when editting Tags textfield(s)

When i add or edit a tag in one of the textfields of "Tags", the Run button gets disabled.
When i uncheck and check the checkbox of "Only run tests with these tags" or "Skip tests with these tags" afterwards, then the Run button is enabled again.

How to set git project as RED project ?

I imported old test project from git. Now i wanna set it as RED project , but was not able to find a way how to do it. Documentation did not contain any information how to configure the builder in project properties. Creating red.xml did not help me out also :) Any idea how to fix my question :)

Cannot delete variable file from red.xml when file does not exist

Recently I moved my tests to another directory. Now, in red.xml file, in variable files section I have wrong path - I tried to right click ->delete but it doesn't work.
As a workaround, I must delete it from another text editor manually.

Unselected Test Suites are automatically removed from Run Configurations

Hi,
I would like to have all my tests whitin one run configuration and sometimes execute only a subset of those. However, unselected test suites are removed from my run configuration and I need manually add them back later on.

Library import error

Env - Eclipse Neon, RED 0.6.5, OS X 10.11.5 (El Capitan)
Steps to reproduce:
In the system installation of Python, install SudsLibrary via pip.
Then in a settings table of a test suite file, add an import of SudsLibrary.
Then save or try to do a quick fix of the Unknown 'SudsLibrary' library error.
Select Discover 'SudsLibrary and add to configuration

Expected Result:
Library reference is added to red.xml and error is removed

Actual Result:
Library import problem dialog appears with text: "The path '/library/Python/2.7/site-packages/SudsLibrary' should point to either .py file or python module directory."

There is another choice for the quick fix - Change to 'SudsLibrary'. This gets the expected result. However, the suggested text is the same as was used.

I originally ran into the error when trying to use libraries installed into a virtualenv.

Modify existing syntax in the source file.

When i create a new test suite, provide the following syntax either in TC/KW as below
${pwd}= Generate Random String 8 qwer[NUMBERS]

Something, it will automatically modify the exisitng syntax.
${pwd}= ${pwd} Generate Random String 8 qwer[NUMBERS]

It is quite irritating whenever i want to commit my code into git. Any suggestion?

Keyword completion cache not updated.

Presently I'm working on extending the Robotframework Sikuli library and I'm able to extend the library and use those new keywords successfully in the test cases.

However, it seems that whenever I update the library, and install it via PIP, the new keywords are not recognized by RED and they are also not present in the keyword completion functionality of RED. The only way to overcome this is by creating a new project, import the sources and then the keyword completion does work.

To me it seems that RED caches the keywords of a (previously) loaded library. For performance reasons this makes sense, but sadly when removing the library and then adding it back again it does not update the cache. This could be considered a bug, or perhaps a feature request. In any case if anyone knows where these files are located so that I can remove them when needed would be great.

Resources importing

Hi,

I have some issue with importing Resources in RED in Eclipse. I have following structure of my tests:

/robot_tests/Common/
/robot_tests/Site/

My RED project location points to /robot_tests.

Inside Site directory I have site_resource.robot where I keep default values of variables per site (there can be many sites with different values). site_resource.robot has to be imported in robot files that are inside Common directory. I have tried different settings in Referenced libraries -> Paths section: I added both Common and Site there with full paths, added Common and Site without paths and changed relativeness to PROJECT and WORKSPACE. Only solution that has been working was when I imported site_resource.robot with path (../Site/site_resource.robot) and this is not acceptable solution :(.

In RIDE when you add both Common and Site to Pythonpath you can easily use keywords and variables from them in any other place. Is that possible in RED?

Thanks,
Mariusz

Very slow performance of RED addon for many TestCases

Summary
An Eclipse is frozen, for a few seconds, after navigating through .robot file which contains a lot of TestCases inside. So the RED plugin for the real project is unusable.

Description
I used RobotFramework in PyCharm. By PyCharm Robot's addon is not so satisfying.
So I'd like to switch to eclipse and use RED addon as well.
After install Eclipse Mars and RED addon, and after move my existing test project, the Eclipse is frozen, after navigating through the .robot file with my TestCases.
I already have around 400 TestCases.
There is around 3700 lines of code in this .robot file.

Root Cause
The problem described below is reachable only when I reduced number of TestCases of a half (from 400 TCses to 200 TCses, from around 3700 lines of code to 1850).
Perhaps after open the .robot file in Eclipse (using ROBOT RED addon), and after slide a few lines down, and click on the current line, Eclipse is frozen, and Remote System Explorer Operation information is displayed with progress bar in the right down corner. I takes around 10 seconds...

But when I have my whole project (3700 lines of code), navigation through the .robot file is not possible due to fact that Eclipse doesn't respond.

Additionaly, I increased the available memory for the Eclipse in Eclipse's config file.

Only after I decreased number of lines in .robot file to around 300 (from 3700), the navigation was usable.

How to turn of some parts of keyword validation?

In keyword "Test Set Up" line " ${conf}= Get Environment Data ${env}" will show hint that it is not defined but is used.Variable with value will be in run script :
robot -v env:ua2 test/ui/*.robot

*** Keywords ***
Get Environment Data
   [Arguments]   ${envType}
   ${file}=   Get file   ./conf/env.json   encoding=UTF-8
   ${data}=   Evaluate   json.loads('''${file}''')   json
   [Return]   ${data["${envType}"]}

Test Set Up
   Set Log Level    TRACE
   ${conf}=   Get Environment Data   ${env}
   Open Browser   ${conf["ui"]["url"]}  ff   ff_profile_dir=${EXECDIR}/conf/profiles/ff_profile
   Maximize Browser Window

Is there a way how to disable the notification or is there a better way how to provide ${env} variable and value?

Support for using python module search path for importing resource file

Robot Framework uses Python's module search path also when importing resource and variable files if the specified path does not match any file directly. Python, Jython and IronPython read additional locations to be added to the module search path from PYTHONPATH, JYTHONPATH and IRONPYTHONPATH environment variables, respectively.

So prefreably RED should also respect these environment variables and try to find imported resource file from that path. I tested it as below,

1. Created resource file example.robot inside E:\test

2. Added E:\test to system envoirnment variable PYTHONPATH

3. Opened RED and tried to import above resource file as

   Resource                   example.robot
   

4. RED fails to import resource file and gives error like "file does not exist"

Debug doesn't work

Hi,
I have problem with debug mode.

1. I open test case file, run tests
2. I switch to debug perspective
3. Set a breakpoint
4. debug the script
5. robot script is automatically terminated:

Keywords after a Run Keyword If condition are not validated.

Hi

In the example below, the Log keyword should be flagged as an error because the Log keyword requires a message argument to be passed to it. However the syntax validator is not highlighting this, would it be possible to add validation of keywords that appear after the Built-In conditional keywords?

Open declaration (F3) does not work for keywords outside current file

Hi,
When I select a keyword and press F3 to see its declaration it only works if the keyword is defined in the same file. I'm using pre-released RED 0.6.5.
Cheers,
Timo

Errors when the Robot project is imported as General->File System (eclipse symlink)

This is a new install. When I view my source files in source mode, I get error : "Resource import 'include.txt' is invalid: file does not exist". This file exists and is in the same folder as the source files. This error is the root cause of keyword reference errors because the location of the keywords was in the resource file. The tests run OK but hang if I attempt to run in debug mode.

I did not see any setup instructions regarding the specification of folders etc.

Test case execution order

Hi,
Is it possible to define test case execution order in run configuration? Seems that the order in Test Suite(s) box is not taken into account.

No keywords in case of using relative path for lib

Hi team! thank you very much for this IDE, it's really great and I'm looking forward for new updates. Despite I have one issue that I cannot figure out how to resolve it.
I have a project in eclipse which contains separate folders for tests and python libs. I added these libs into RED xml with relative path, but after that eclipse doesn't see the keywords.
If I use absolute paths in red.xml everything works fine.

Could you help me with this issue?

Resource importing another resource

Hi,

Me and my team started a few week ago to use the RED plugin and it works very well. But, we have one very annoying issue and it is when we import a resource file inside another resource file. When we it, the RED plugin is complaining that the newly imported resource is not available in the project(no link). But, the newly imported resource imports the required files using relative paths and Python is able to run the code without any issue.

Currently, we have import and link every resource and their dependencies for every projects. Here is an example to help you understand the issue: if I import a new resource to a resource being used by X projects, I will need to add a link of this new resource for all the X projects and if this newly imported resource needs resources that one of these X projects don't have, we have to import the missing links to these projects until all the links are imported for every projects.

Do you have a solution for this issue? We are searching for a solution similar to C headers where you can include a header that includes other headers and the newly included headers use the relative paths to find the other dependencies.

Thank you,
Felix

Warning about path when variable defined in file

Hello,
Thanks a lot for your great work.
I just started using RED, and I a an issue.
There are some warnings like :
The library name/path '${LIBRARIES}/XXX.py' is parametrized. Some of used parameters cannot be resolved. Use Variable mappings in red.xml for parameter resolution

This variable is defined in common_variables.py, which I added as variable file in red.xml
Content of this file is :
COMMON_DIR = os.path.abspath('')
RESSOURCES = COMMON_DIR + '/ressources'
LIBRARIES = COMMON_DIR + '/libraries'

The tests are working, but it is annoying to have such warnings...

External libraries in eclipse PYTHONPATH not recognized in pybot run

First , I would like to appreciate the team to have provided a long waited awesome plugin for robotframework.
I was waiting for such an integration with eclipse.
Now i have my design and test automation part of same developmen tenvironment.
No to the issue,

I am adding an external library egg file (Pyvimomi.egg) in eclipse PYTHONPATH.
One of my python library file uses this dependency to query to get vm details.
But it is not recognized during my pybot execution.
Still my PYTHONPATH shows only default set in my SHELL environment.

Can you help me find out the cause of this issue.?

When editting off screen, focus flips back to the left

When editting a value that is off my screen (so i have use the scrollbar to move the focus to the right), the scrollbar automaticly flips back to the left.
That way i have to scroll to the right again, for every value i want to edit or add that's off screen.

Input in table editor doesn't take affect

Hi,

Thanks for your efforts to make this editor.

I tried it but found there are many bugs.
One obvious one is that when I input somethings in table editor of test suite, it can't take affect.Switch to source view, it's still empty.

How to integrate RED with Robotframework Maven Plugin

Hi Team,

It’s really nice plug-in for robot framework. I have installed it on eclipse mars and while i tried to open my robot test suite it’s giving below error

(For some issues i am not able to upload image of error, please find text below)

Title: Runtime environment error
Content: unable to provide valid RED runtime environment. Check Python/Robot installation and set in preferences.

I am working on java implementation of robot with robot maven plug-in. Can anyone please help me to resolve this issue?

How to import robotframework-selenium2library keywords

Hi,
I installed with pip robotframework-selenium2library , now i wanna use it ( Library Selenium2Library ), but cant find a way how to import it as "Selenium2Library" so RED also understands it as one library. At the moment it asks me to import every class of Selenium2Library.

Keyword completion from external java libraries

Does RED provide keyword completion from external java libraries? This was one of my major gripe with RobotFramework-EclipseIDE which prevented adoption of RF entirely.
Often, it is very impractical to write the keywords with RF directly, and not being able to have code completion on these keywords is a big hindrance.

In any case, good luck with the project - I feel it is one of the missing piece for a wider adoption of RF! Thanks for that

Add a "find references" feature

To be almost on par with the Ride IDE a "find references" (usage) of keywords feature should be added.

RED Editor in Eclipse throws Exception while opening the .robot suite file

1. I am generating a robot suite file using a java program, which generates .robot file using UTF-8 Encoding
2. Trying to open generated Robot suite file using RED Editor in Eclipse Mars
3. Throws below exception, need to figureout why? and probable soultion.

Note that other robot files created using RED Editor can be opened without this error
Also note that, Robot files generated using java program are opened properly using notepad++ and vim
Sample Robot suite file:

*** Settings ***
Library     some.class.path.ClassName

*** Keywords ***
type val
    [Arguments]     ${xpathForLocale}       ${dataModifyRole}       ${strLocale}    
     some.class.path.ClassName.type     ${xpathForLocale}       ${dataModifyRole}       ${strLocale}
