How to set custom filename for pabot result (html) - automated-tests

I implemented test cases for my application and decided to run it everyday. The problem is the result of the previous test will be overwritten by the latest test result. I need to keep them both so I came up with a solution that include the test date and time in the report name, for example; report-202111181704.html (use time in 24-hour format).
I searched through the internet and did not found any solution yet. Anybody here know the solution? or any alternative solution will be fine.

It depends on where you execute your tests. From command line you can save the date to variable. Then use this variable to change the name of generated outputs. For example
date=$(date '+%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M:%S')
robot --output ${date}output.xml --log ${date}log.html --report ${date}report.html test.robot

I found the solution. Instead of setting .html file name, I create a folder and put the result there.
To do this, add --outputdir in pabot command so it's gonna look like this
pabot --pabotlibport $PABOT_PORT --pabotlib --resourcefile ./DeviceSet.dat --processes $thread --verbose --outputdir ./result/$OUTPUT_DIR $ENV
where
$OUTPUT_DIR=`date + "%Y%m%d-%H%M"`
The output folder gonna be like ./result/20220301-2052

Failed to create wallet for ton with Fift?

Right now I'm trying to create wallet for TON.
I downloaded and built Fift interpreter an was trying to create new wallet with: ./crypto/fift new-walelt.fif
[ 1][t 0][1559491459.312618017][fift-main.cpp:147] Error interpreting standard preamble file `Fift.fif`: cannot locate file `Fift.fif`
Check that correct include path is set by -I or by FIFTPATH environment variable, or disable standard preamble by -n.
Although my path variable is set. Could anyone please help me with this?
First, locate {{lite-client-source-direcotry}}/crypto/fift
This is not the build directory, that's the directory where are the source files (lite-client that you downloaded). So verify you have that it contains Fift.fif file.
If you installed it in the user working directory, it should be:
~/lite-client/crypto/fift/
Now, you should either set FIFTPATH variable to point to this directory or run fift with -I option:
export FIFTPATH=~/lite-client/crypto/fift/
./crypto/fift new-walelt.fif
Or
./crypto/fift -I~/lite-client/crypto/fift/ new-walelt.fif
Have you tried ./crypto/fift -I<source-directory>/crypto/fift new-wallet.fif instead of setting environment variable? Are Fift.fif and Asm.fif library files inside FIFTPATH?
Make sure you have followed all the instruction written here:
https://test.ton.org/HOWTO.txt
It should work if you do all the above instruction correctly. If not, it might be a bug. Remember that TON is in a very early beta strage. You can submit the issue here:
https://github.com/copperbits/TON/issues
You also can use this:
cd ~/liteclient-build
crypto/fift -I/root/lite-client/crypto/fift/lib -s /root/lite-client/crypto/smartcont/new-wallet.fif -1 wallet_name
Try this (worked for me)
export FIFTPATH=~/lite-client/crypto/fift/lib
./crypto/fift new-wallet.fif

expected at least 1 argument, got 0

I installed robot framework yesterday and trying to run a test file.Below is my test file, while i try to run the file using robot -d tests/Amazon.robot , i am getting a error as
[Error] Expected at least 1 argument,got 0.
can someone please help me.
You didn't specify where to look for tests and you are using -d incorrectly.
Most likely you need command robot tests/Amazon.robot
The problem looks like in the usage of the Sleep keyword - you want to pass the argument "3" to it, but did not put two or more spaces b/n them.
With problems like this, check the generated log.html file - the failure will be in the record for the specific keyword, helping you pinpoint which line is the error one.

Defining setup, teardown and variable in argumentfile in robotframework

Basically 2 issues:
1. I plan to execute multiple test cases from argument file. The structure would look like that:
SOME_PATH/
-test_cases/
-some_keywords/
-argumentfile.txt
How should i define a suite setup and teardown for all those test cases executed from file (-A file)?
From what i know:
a) I could execute it in file with 1st and last test case, but the order of test cases may change so it is not desired.
b) provide it in init.robot and put it somewhere without test cases only to get the setup and teardown. This is because if I execute:
robot -i SOME_TAG -A argumentfile /path/to/init
and the init is in test_case folder it will execute the test_cases with a specific tag + those in a folder twice.
Is there any better way? Provide it, for example, in argumentfile?
2 How to provide PATH variable in argumentfiles in robotframework?
I know there is possibility to do:
--variable PATH:some/path/to/files
but is it not for test suite env?
How to get that variable to be visible in the file itself: ${PATH}/test_case_1.robot
For your 2nd question, you could create a temporary environment variable that you'd then use. Depending on the OS you're using, the way you'll do this will be different:
Windows:
set TESTS_PATH=some/path/here
robot -t %TESTS_PATH%/test_case_1.robot
Unix:
export TESTS_PATH="some/path/here"
robot -t $TESTS_PATH/test_case_1.robot
PS: you might want to avoid asking multiple, different questions in the same thread

How to force robot framework to pick robot files in sequential order?

I have robot files in a folder (tests) as shown below:
tests
1_robotfile1.robot
2_robotfile2.robot
3_robotfile3.robot
4_robotfile4.robot
5_robotfile5.robot
6_robotfile6.robot
7_robotfile7.robot
8_robotfile8.robot
9_robotfile9.robot
10_robotfile10.robot
11_robotfile11.robot
Now if I execute '/root/users1/power$ pybot root/user1/tests' command, robot files are running in following order:
tests
1_robotfile1.robot
10_robotfile10.robot
11_robotfile11.robot
2_robotfile2.robot
3_robotfile3.robot
4_robotfile4.robot
5_robotfile5.robot
6_robotfile6.robot
7_robotfile7.robot
8_robotfile8.robot
9_robotfile9.robot
I want to force robot_framework to pick robot files in sequential order, like 1,2,3,4,5....
Do we have any option for this?
If you have the option of renaming your files, you just need to make sure that the prefix is sortable. For numbers, that means they should all have the same number of digits.
I recommend renaming your test cases to have three or four digits for the prefix:
001_robotfile1.robot
002_robotfile2.robot
003_robotfile3.robot
004_robotfile4.robot
005_robotfile5.robot
006_robotfile6.robot
007_robotfile7.robot
008_robotfile8.robot
009_robotfile9.robot
010_robotfile10.robot
011_robotfile11.robot
...
With that, they will sort in the order that you expect.
Following #Emna answer, RF docs ( http://robotframework.org/robotframework/latest/RobotFrameworkUserGuide.html#execution-order ) provides some solution.
So what could you do:
rename all the files to have consecutive and computer numbering (001-test.robot instead of 1-test.robot). This may break any internal references to other files (resources), hard to add test in-between,error prone when execution order needs to be changed
you can tag it as Emna
idea from RF docs - write a script to create argument file which will keep ordering in proper way and use it as argument to robot execution. For 1000+ files it should not take longer than few seconds.
try to design tests to not be dependent from execution order, use suite setup instead.
good luck ;)
Tag the tests as foo and bar so you can run each test separately:
pybot -i foo tests
or
pybot -i bar tests
and decide the order you want
pybot -i bar tests || pybot -i foo tests

Fail a grunt build when debug prints exist in source

I am working on a PHP/Javascript project where I've nicely set up a build workflow. It involves testing, minifying, compressing into the final zip deliverable, and a whole lot of other nice stuff.
I want to build a task that fails when there are certain patterns in the source code. I would like to look for any print_r(), error_log(), var_dump(), etc functions, and halt the build process if there are any. Perhaps later I would like to check for things in Javascript or CSS so this is not only a PHP question.
I know it can be done with grunt-shell and grep but I'd like to know the following:
Are there any grunt plugins specific to this task? Ideally I would like to be able to specify a list of regexes per file type, and to set whether to continue or fail the build on pattern match.
How do others tackle the problem of double-checking the packaged source for the most common debug statements or other patterns?
Not a complete answer to my question, but I've recently come across this grunt plugin which is somewhat related. It removes console.log statements from JavaScript. Haven't tried it yet. Looks good. I still would like to know if there's something similar for PHP though.
http://grunt-tasks.com/grunt-remove-logging-calls/
Edit: Seeing as there's only tumbleweeds rolling in the wind here, I'm posting my workaround that's based on grunt-shell. However this is not what I was looking for. It's not perfect because it doesn't do proper syntax parsing:
shell: {
check_debug_prints: {
command: '(! (egrep -r "var_dump|print_r|error_log" --include=*.php src || egrep -r "console\.\w+|debugger;" --include=*.js src) ) || (echo "Debug prints in source - build aborted" && false )'
}
},
and
grunt.loadNpmTasks( 'grunt-shell' );
Edit 2: I finally found the exact grunt plugin I was looking for. It is grunt-search. There is a failOnMatch boolean option that lets you indicate if a particular regex pattern should cause the build to fail when found.
