📊 Robot Framework Dashboard
Before reading anything else here is a Fully Functioning Dashboard you can checkout right away!
🎯 Overview
Robot Framework Dashboard is a tool for Robot Framework that provides insight of your test results across multiple runs. The tool makes use of the built in Robot Framework Result Visitor API to analyse output.xml files, stores these in a simple sqlite3 database and finally creates a HTML dashboard that makes use of Chart.js and Datatables for the graphs and tables and makes use of Bootstrap for styling. Additionally GridStack is used for the interactive layout grids.
🚀 Getting Started
Installation
Install Robot Framework 6.0 or higher (if not already installed):
pip install robotframework
Install Robot Framework Dashboard:
pip install robotframework-dashboard
Install Robot Framework Dashboard with Server:
pip install robotframework-dashboard[server]
# or use
pip install robotframework-dashboard[all]
Basic Usage
Example 1 — Add a single output file and generate a dashboard:
robotdashboard -o output.xml
This adds output.xml to the default database (robot_results.db) and generates a self-contained HTML dashboard file you can open directly in any browser.
Example 2 — Add multiple output files with a custom database and dashboard name:
robotdashboard -o output1.xml -o output2.xml -d my_results.db -n my_dashboard.html
This processes two output XML files, stores results in my_results.db, and writes the dashboard to my_dashboard.html.
For all available CLI options see the Basic CLI docs and Advanced CLI & Examples.
