Robot Framework Browser library powered by Playwright. Moving browser automation to year 2020 (or 2021)!

Aiming for :rocket: speed, :white_check_mark: reliability and :microscope: visibility.

Supporting testing and automation with Robot Framework and Python.

Official post about this venture.

Installation instructions for users

  1. Install node.js e.g. from https://nodejs.org/en/download/
  2. Install robotframework-browser from the commandline: pip install robotframework-browser
  3. Install the node dependencies needed to run Playwright from the commandline: rfbrowser init

Development

Development environment

Install Python, nodejs and yarn. Make sure you have make available.

Setup development environment with make dev-env. This creates a Python virtualenv in .venv directory, and install both Python and nodejs dependencies.

To update the dependencies use either make dev-env to update all or alternatively make .venv or make node-deps to update only Python or nodejs dependencies, respectively.

Make sure to run source .venv/bin/activate to activate the correct virtualenv

Development in Windows

Install Chocolatey and then install development tools with choco install sed make.

After that, the development workflow should work as described in the previous chapter. The only difference is that the virtualenv needs to be activated by running .venv\Scripts\activate in the command prompt.

Testing

There are both unit tests written with pytest and acceptance test written with Robot Framework. These can be run manually with make utest and make atest. The tests are also executed in a prepush hook.

Releasing

  1. Ensure generated code and types are up to date with make build
  2. Ensure tests and linting pass on CI
  3. Check that you have permissions to release on Github and PyPi
  4. Use make release to create and release artifacts and upload to PyPi
  5. Create Github release

Code style

Python code style is enforced with flake8 and black. These are executed in a precommit hook, but can also be invoked manually with make lint-python.

Architecture

Python Library <--> gRPC <---> TypeScript and Playwright
