RobotFramework-UDS 0.1.8

Robot Framework keywords for UDS (Unified Diagnostic Services) communication

RobotFramework_UDS Package Description

Getting Started

The library RobotFramework_UDS provides a set of Robot Framework keywords for sending UDS (UnifiedDiagnostic Services) requests and interpreting responses from automotive electronic control units (ECUs).

Whether you're testing diagnostic sessions, reading data, or controlling routines on an ECU, the UDS Library simplifies these tasks by offering specific keywords for almost any UDS service as defined in ISO 14229.

These keywords are designed to handle the complexity of UDS communication, enabling you to write efficient and reliable automated tests.

     Additionally install LaTeX (recommended: TeX Live). This is used to render the documentation.

   • Configure dependencies

     The installation of RobotFramework_UDS includes to generate the documentation in PDF format. This is done by an application called GenPackageDoc, that is part of the installation dependencies (see requirements.txt).

     GenPackageDoc uses LaTeX to generate the documentation in PDF format. Therefore GenPackageDoc needs to know where to find LaTeX. This is defined in the GenPackageDoc configuration file

     packagedoc\packagedoc_config.json
     

     Before you start the installation you have to introduce the following environment variable, that is used in packagedoc_config.json:

     • GENDOC_LATEXPATH : path to pdflatex executable

   • Use the following command to install RobotFramework_UDS:

     setup.py install
