Remote Sikuli Library for Robot Framework

Introduction

Robot framework library to utilize Sikuli's UI testing capabilities either remotely or locally.

• More information about this library can be found in the Keyword Documentation.
• For keyword completion in RIDE you can download this Library Specs and place it in your PYTHONPATH.

Usage

If you are using the robotframework-maven-plugin you can use this library by adding the following dependency to your pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.hi-fi</groupId>
    <artifactId>remotesikulilibrary</artifactId>
    <version>0.0.4</version>
</dependency>

With Gradle, library can be use by importing it as a dependency in build.gradle. Because of Sikuli's own pom-file, dependencies have to be introduces following way:

switch(System.getProperty('os.name').toLowerCase().split()[0]) {
    case 'windows':
        compile group: 'com.sikulix', name: 'sikulixlibswin', version: '1.1.0'
        break
    case 'linux':
        compile group: 'com.sikulix', name: 'sikulixlibslux', version: '1.1.0'
        break
    case 'mac':
        compile group: 'com.sikulix', name: 'sikulixlibsmac', version: '1.1.0'
        break
    default:
        throw new Exception('Unknown OS')
}
runtime('com.github.hi-fi:remotesikulilibrary:0.0.4') {
    exclude module: '${sikulix.libs}'
}

Library import in Robot tests can be done with:

*** Settings ***
Library	RemoteSikuliLibrary

Example

Usage examples can be found at Tests-folder.

Demo can be run by cloning this repository and running acceptance tests with Maven:

mvn verify

Demo uses own simple Swing application, which is included in tests.

Notes

Debug-level logging is quite exhaustive at remote calls, because base64 encoded images are written to logs, too.
