Robot Framework Browser library powered by Playwright. Moving browser automation to year 2021!
Aiming for 🚀 speed, ✅ reliability and 🔬 visibility.
Only Python 3.7 or newer is supported.
- Install node.js e.g. from https://nodejs.org/en/download/ (only < v15 supported; if unsure, use 14.15.0 LTS)
- Update pip
pip install -U pipto ensure latest version is used - Install robotframework-browser from the commandline:
pip install robotframework-browser - Install the node dependencies: run
rfbrowser initin your shell
- if
rfbrowseris not found, trypython -m Browser.entry init
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.
Or use the docker images. Documented at atest/docker/README.md.
To upgrade your already installed robotframework-browser library
- Update from commandline:
pip install -U robotframework-browser - Install the node dependencies for the newly installed version:
rfbrowser init
