robo-appian
robo-appian is a reusable Python component library built on top of Playwright for automating Appian web applications. It provides Appian-focused operations that identify controls primarily through user-facing labels, accessible semantics, text, and meaningful scopes where supported, while consumer projects keep ownership of application workflows, assertions, business rules, credentials, waits, and test data.
Architecture
Consumer tests → robo-appian → Playwright → Appian web application
The first argument to scope-aware component methods is a Scope. A Scope is either a Playwright Page or a Playwright Locator. Pass a Page to search the whole document, or a Locator to restrict the search to a particular container. robo-appian does not create a separate scope object.
The project favors readable component calls such as:
from robo_appian import Button, Dropdown, InputText
InputText.fill_by_label(scope, "Request Name", "Example Request")
Dropdown.select(scope, "Request Type", "Travel")
Button.click(scope, "Submit")
This keeps reusable Appian lookup mechanics in the library instead of repeating them throughout consumer workflows.
