Robot Framework Browser library powered by Playwright. Propelling browser automation into the future!

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

See keyword documentation and web page for more details.

Installation instructions

Only Python 3.9 or newer is supported. From Node side 20 and 22 LTS versions are supported.

  1. Install node.js e.g. from https://nodejs.org/en/download/
  2. Update pip pip install -U pip to ensure latest version is used
  3. Install robotframework-browser from the commandline: pip install robotframework-browser
  4. Install the node dependencies: run rfbrowser init in your shell

Please note that by default Chromium, Firefox and WebKit browser are installed, even those would be already installed in the system. The installation size depends on the operating system, but usually is +700Mb. It is possible to skip browser binaries installation with rfbrowser init --skip-browsers command, but then user is responsible for browser binary installation. It is possible to install only selected browser binaries by adding chromium, firefox or webkit as arguments to init command. Example rfbrowser init firefox would install only Firefox binaries and rfbrowser init firefox chromium would install both Firefox and Chromium binaries.

Or use the docker images. Documented at docker/README.md.

Install with transformer

Starting from release 18.3.0 Browser library has optional dependency with Robotidy. Install library with Robotidy, run install with: pip install robotframework-browser[tidy]. Starting from 18.3.0 release, library will provide external Robotidy transformer. Transformer provided by Browser library can be run with command: rfbrowser transform --transformer-name /path/to/tests. Example: rfbrowser transform --wait-until-network-is-idle /path/to/tests would transform deprecated Wait Until Network Is Idle keyword to Wait For Load State keyword. To see full list of transformers provided by Browser library, run command: rfbrowser transform --help.

Update instructions

To upgrade your already installed robotframework-browser library

  1. Update from commandline: pip install -U robotframework-browser
  2. Clean old node side dependencies and browser binaries: rfbrowser clean-node
  3. Install the node dependencies for the newly installed version: rfbrowser init
Uninstall instructions

To completely uninstall library, including the browser binaries installed by Playwright, run following commands:

  1. Clean old node side dependencies and browser binaries: rfbrowser clean-node
  2. Uninstall with pip: pip uninstall robotframework-browser
Examples Testing with Robot Framework
*** Settings ***
Library   Browser

*** Test Cases ***
Example Test
    New Page    https://playwright.dev
    Get Text    h1    contains    Playwright
and testing with Python.
import Browser
browser = Browser.Browser()
browser.new_page("https://playwright.dev")
assert 'Playwright' in browser.get_text("h1")
browser.close_browser()
and extending with JavaScript
async function myGoToKeyword(url, page, logger) {
    logger("Going to " + url)
    return await page.goto(url);
}
myGoToKeyword.rfdoc = "This is my own go to keyword";
exports.__esModule = true;
exports.myGoToKeyword = myGoToKeyword;

Ergonomic selector syntax, supports chaining of text, css and xpath selectors
# Select element containing text "Login" with text selector strategy
# and select it's parent `input` element with xpath
Click    "Login" >> xpath=../input
# Select element with CSS strategy and select button in it with text strategy
Click    div.dialog >> "Ok"
Evaluate in browser page
New Page   ${LOGIN_URL}
${ref}=    Get Element    h1
Get Property    ${ref}    innerText    ==    Login Page
Evaluate JavaScript    ${ref}    (elem) => elem.innerText = "abc"
Get Property    ${ref}    innerText    ==    abc
Asynchronously waiting for HTTP requests and responses
# The button with id `delayed_request` fires a delayed request. We use a promise to capture it.
${promise}=    Promise To    Wait For Response    matcher=    timeout=3s
Click    \#delayed_request
${body}=    Wait For    ${promise}
Device Descriptors
${device}=  Get Device  iPhone X
New Context  &{device}
New Page
Get Viewport Size  # returns { "width": 375, "height": 812 }
Sending HTTP requests and parsing their responses
${response}=    HTTP    /api/post    POST    {"name": "John"}
Should Be Equal    ${response.status}    ${200}
Parallel test execution using Pabot

You can let RF Browser spawn separate processes for every pabot process. This is very simple, just run the tests normally using pabot (see https://github.com/mkorpela/pabot#basic-use ). However if you have small tests do not use --testlevelsplit, it will cause lots of overhead because tests cannot share the browsers in any case.

You can share the node side RF Browser processes by using the ROBOT_FRAMEWORK_BROWSER_NODE_PORT environment variable, and from Browser.utils import spawn_node_process helper (see the docs for the helper ). This saves some overhead based on how many splits of tests you are running. Clean up the process afterwards.
