Specify the last one release of the client version 3 to install or update the client for other versions of Report Portal below 5.0.0:

pip install robotframework-reportportal~=3.0

import subprocess
from robotframework_reportportal import logger


def log_free_memory():
    logger.debug("Collecting free memory statistics!")
    logger.debug(
        "Memory consumption report",
        attachment={
            "name": "free_memory.txt",
            "data": subprocess.check_output("free -h".split()),
            "mime": "text/plain",
        },
    )

Test case ID

It's possible to tag tests the following way test_case_id:12345 using default Robot Framework tagging functionality. ID specified after : will be sent to Report Portal.

Integration with GA

Report Portal is now supporting integrations with more than 15 test frameworks simultaneously. In order to define the most popular agents and plan the team workload accordingly, we are using Google analytics.

Report Portal collects information about agent name and its version only. This information is sent to Google analytics on the launch start. Please help us to make our work effective. If you still want to switch Off Google analytics, please change env variable the way below.

export AGENT_NO_ANALYTICS=1
