Answer 1

You can create styles using easyxf and then pass them as arguments to your write method.

For example:

style_pass = xlwt.easyxf('pattern: pattern solid, fore_colour green;')
style_fail = xlwt.easyxf('pattern: pattern solid, fore_colour red;')
worksheet.write_merge(6, 6, 3, 3,'Pass', style=style_pass)
worksheet.write_merge(7, 7, 3, 3,'Fail', style=style_fail)
