How to run headless REMOTE chrome using robot framework

问题

I'm trying to run chrome headless with my robot framework tests suites. I managed to do it independtly with python using selenium as follows:

options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument('--headless')
my_driver = webdriver.Remote(command_executer=my_remote_address, desired_capabilities=options.to_capabilities)

The following code is what I did in robot but didn't work:

${options}=  Evaluate  sys.modules['selenium.webdriver'].ChromeOptions()  sys, selenium.webdriver
${options.add_argument}=  Set Variable  add_argument=--headless
Create WebDriver  Chrome  chrome_options=${options}

Open Browser   http://www.google.com   chrome

To run headless you need to set the arguments and convert them to capabilities so that they can be used when using the Remote Driver option. This works for both the Open Browser as well as the Create Webdriver way of navigating to a URL.

Headless Chrome - Create Webdriver
    ${chrome options} =     Evaluate    sys.modules['selenium.webdriver'].ChromeOptions()    sys, selenium.webdriver
    Call Method    ${chrome options}   add_argument    headless
    Call Method    ${chrome options}   add_argument    disable-gpu
    ${options}=     Call Method     ${chrome_options}    to_capabilities

In newer versions of SeleniumLibrary (3.1.0) and Selenium (3.8.0) you can simply set the browser to headlesschrome instead of chrome.

There's also headlessfirefox available.

Ex.

Open Browser      http://www.yoursite.com    headlesschrome

Please try the below. Run the keyword in Test setup

Running the tests in chrome headless
    ${chrome options} =     Evaluate    sys.modules['selenium.webdriver'].ChromeOptions()    sys, selenium.webdriver
    Call Method    ${chrome options}   add_argument    headless
    Call Method    ${chrome options}   add_argument    disable-gpu
    Create Webdriver    Chrome    chrome_options=${chrome options}

Try out these two keywords:

Open Chrome
    [Arguments]    ${url}    ${lang}
    ${chrome_options}=    Evaluate    sys.modules['selenium.webdriver'].ChromeOptions()    sys, selenium.webdriver
    Call Method    ${chrome_options}    add_argument    headless
    Call Method    ${chrome_options}    add_argument    disable-gpu
    Create Webdriver    Chrome    chrome_options=${chrome_options}
    Go To    ${url}

Open Remote Chrome
    [Arguments]    ${url}    ${remote_url}    ${lang}
    ${chrome_options}=    Evaluate    sys.modules['selenium.webdriver'].ChromeOptions()    sys, selenium.webdriver
    Call Method    ${chrome_options}    add_argument    headless
    Call Method    ${chrome_options}    add_argument    disable-gpu
    Open Browser    ${url}    Chrome    remote_url=${remote_url}    desired_capabilities=${chrome_options.to_capabilities()}

First one will launch a local chrome, while the second one is to launch a remote chrome. If you need to be able to handle the remote vs. local into a single keyword, you can create a wrapper around these two with a boolean argument that will determine which keyword to call.

${options}=  Evaluate  sys.modules['selenium.webdriver'].ChromeOptions()  sys, selenium.webdriver
Call Method    ${options}    add_argument    headless
Call Method    ${options}    add_argument    disable-gpu
Create WebDriver  Chrome  chrome_options=${options}

I created example repository and instructions how to run Chrome and Firefox native, headless or with docker and also included comparison chart for run times. You can find examples on my github page https://github.com/shnigi/Docker-Headless-Testing-Demo

The main Idea is however In both tests to use the Selenium's webdriver API to tell chromedriver and geckodriver to launch browser with some arguments. SeleniumLibrary's Open Browser keyword does not have this functionality, but Create Webdriver does the trick.

Open Headless Chrome Browser to Page
  ${chrome_options}=    Evaluate    
  sys.modules['selenium.webdriver'].ChromeOptions()    sys
  Call Method    ${chrome_options}    add_argument    test-type
  Call Method    ${chrome_options}    add_argument    --disable-extensions
  Call Method    ${chrome_options}    add_argument    --headless
  Call Method    ${chrome_options}    add_argument    --disable-gpu
  Call Method    ${chrome_options}    add_argument    --no-sandbox
  Create Webdriver    Chrome    chrome_options=${chrome_options}
  Set Window Size    1920    1080
  Go To    ${PAGE URL}

Firefox true headless
  ${firefox options}=     Evaluate    sys.modules['selenium.webdriver'].firefox.webdriver.Options()    sys, selenium.webdriver
  Call Method    ${firefox options}   add_argument    -headless
  Create Webdriver    Firefox    firefox_options=${firefox options}
  Set Window Size    1920    1080
  Go To    ${PAGE URL}
  Page Should Be Open

You will need latest browsers and drivers installed.

You can now use aliases:

*** Settings ***
Library    SeleniumLibrary

*** Test Cases ***
Firefox
    Open Browser    http://robotframework.org/    headlessfirefox
    Capture Page Screenshot
    [Teardown]    Close All Browsers

Chrome
    Open Browser    http://robotframework.org/     headlesschrome
    Capture Page Screenshot
    [Teardown]    Close All Browsers
