We use robot framework at work to do some automated testing, and I need to add a few tests. This format is already in the repo, I cannot change anything drastically.
I am using a keywords file that looks like this:
#!/usr/bin/env python3# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-from robot.api.deco import keywordclass testkeywords(object):"""""" def __init__(self): pass @keyword('I compare ${first_number} with ${second_number}') def compare(self, first_number, second_number): if (int(first_number) != int(second_number)): raise ValueError('Numbers are not the same.')
The .robot file has two tests, one that passes and one that fails:
*** Settings ***Library testkeywords.py*** Variables ***${num_a} 5${num_b} 6*** Test Cases ***Compare same numbers I compare ${num_a} with ${num_a}Compare different numbers I compare ${num_a} with ${num_b}
The Compare different numbers
test fails as expected, but it's still a FAIL. How can I set it to expect a failure and hence pass the keyword?
