How to run test cases using robot framework jar file?

问题

I tried running the testcases by using robotframework-2.8.6 jar like below

java -jar robotframework-2.8.6.jar testcases

But Its not recognizing the selenium2keywords. How do I use the selenium2library with robotframework jar ?

回答1:

The easiest (and most robust/enhanceable) way to use the robot framework jar file is through the maven plugin.

(I'm assuming here that you have a maven runtime)

Just create a pom file that uses the plugin and run it using mvn install

Adding selenium 2 becomes just a matter of adding a dependency to the pom file.

Example (with selenium 2) which contains some useful tricks in it as well.

回答2:

Using classpath command I was able to run the testcases.

java -cp robotframework-2.8.6.jar org.robotframework.RobotFramework testcase
