I want to exit test in the test case. And do not want the report to show the number of test cases (TC003) that exit test In the example below,
*** test cases ***
TC001
Run Keyword If '1'=='1' Log To Console xx
TC002
Run Keyword If '2'=='2' Log To Console xx
TC003
Run Keyword If '3'!='3' Exit Test
How do I use it? You can guide me
I don't think there's anything you can do. Once the test starts running, there's no way to remove it from the reports and logs.
It sounds like you're trying to skip a test under certain circumstances. If so, it will be able to mark a test as skipped (versus pass/fail) in robot framework 4.0, though it will still show up in the logs and reports.
If you really don't want it in the reports, you can write a script that removes the tests from the output.xml file and then regenerates the html logs and reports using rebot.

my problem is that I made two test cases which are perfectly fine and working nicely, however I need to run second one only if first one fails. How can I do that? I'm using RIDE Robotframework and working on IE, because of legacy app.
What you can do is make tests:
Test A passes.
Test A fails.
Test A fails and runs test B.
However I'd prefer you wouldn't do that. Usually tests should be logically separate. If you could you would run all of them on parallel.
If a test fails you shouldn't be concerned with testing other stuff at that point. You should fix the first test. Otherwise you will go in a rabbit hole of tests.
You can't do what you want. At least, not directly. Robot provides no way to add additional tests after the tests have started running.
However, if instead of "run second one" you say "run a special keyword", you can move the functionality to a keyword and call it in a test teardown using Run keyword if test failed
*** Keywords ***
On test teardown
run keyword if test failed
... log BUMMER! WARN
*** Test Cases ***
Passing test
[Teardown] On test teardown
log hello, world
Failing test
[Teardown] On test teardown
fail this test has failed.
You could use Pass Execution If keyword with suite variables. This is not perfect solution because Test B is still logged as passed.
*** Test Cases ***
Test A
Set Suite Variable ${a_passed} ${FALSE}
Fail This case failed
Set Suite Variable ${a_passed} ${TRUE}
Test B
Pass Execution If ${a_passed} A passed so skipping B
Log To Console Running Test B
I have a project where I am running 100 scenarios every day. After the run has complete, through listeners I am updating the pass/fail in an Excel sheet. I want to hear about a solution where, if I am running the test suite again, the passed test cases should be skipped and only failed test cases should run. I dont want to use retry.I tried to use skipException in beforeInvocation listener method but the test case is still executing the passed test case. How can I skip the passed test cases and execute only the failed one through listeners ?
Every time before the start of the scenario, it should go to the listener and check the excel sheet whether the scenario is passed or fail. If passed then the scenario should be skipped.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Update: I am able to do it through listeners, with skipException, but in my report it is showing test as failed and not as skipped
When you run bdd tests, qaf generates configuration file with name testng-failed-qas.xml under reports dir. You should use that config file to run only failed scenarios.
I run the test on bamboo with selenium technology and the test tab does not show the test failure, how I can view the test failure?
To see test results (including info which test caused fail) you need to add proper parser task to your job. There are many available parser tasks i.e. JUnit Parser, NUnit Parser, TestNG Parser.
The important thing is to move parser task under Final tasks bar (parser will execute even if previous task fail).
You don't have any test failures. In fact, no tests were running in this build as you can see in line
0 test in total
You job may have failed for one of 2 reasons:
Actual failure of the job. Check detailed log on Logs tab to see if this is the case
It may have also failed because you configured it to fail when there was no tests (and in this case there was no tests indeed) as we see. The corresponding configuration would look like this:
I understand that nunit console 3 can write to TestResult.xml after running the tests, where the TestResult.xml is located inside the directory specified by --work parameter.
But from what I can tell, TestResult.xml contains too many (irrelevant) details, that I don't need to fix my unit tests errors. All I need is just the failed or ignored test cases, just like what is displayed in command line prompt when I am running nunit console in it.
How to configure the parameters for nunit console 3 so that it only gives me failed or ignored test cases?
Sorry, I'm a few months late (unfortunately I came across this problem only now). But as far as I searched, the only possibility is to use XSL transformation. There are some applications that can convert the XML report file, but... I tested a few, but unfortunately the output was not that was I need.
Therefore I created a simple NUnit3summary application that can transform the standard XML output file to text file. I was surprised that nobody until now made something like this (or at least did not publish it). It were only two hours of work (first working version) and a few more to finish it to stare ready for publishing.
It is only a simple application that was aimed for my needs. You can use filtration for now only with another application, e.g.:
NUnit3summary.exe TestResult.xml | grep Failed >FailedTests.txt
You can see a practical application here (this is also the project where the application was needed, because of too many errors in unit tests).
I am using Fitnesse 20130530 to execute a test suite that contains multiple tests. Most of my tests use script tables with SLIM to drive Selenium. I use a Stop Test Exception to stop the execution of a test when one of the method calls raises an exception. Unfortunately, this also stops the execution of the whole suite. Is there a way to just stop the current test and then continue execution with the next test in the suite?
Not in FitNesse itself, but you can build it into your fixtures.
When I had a similar problem I was able to solve it using what we called "fail fast" mode. This was a static variable that could be set to true under certain conditions (typically by an element not found exception or similar).
Our main driver was structured such that we could pass through one spot that could check for that value before calling the browserDriver. This would then skip the broswerDriver calls until the test ended.
The next text would clear the flag and start up again.
You would need to manage the whole process, but it can work.
