Robot Framework modules

Both Robot Framework modules accept an ordered arguments list and an optional cwd.

Module	Purpose
robotframework.test	Run python -m robot
robotframework.rebot	Run python -m robot.rebot to post-process results

Argument format

Each string in the arguments list is emitted as a standalone command-line argument. Each single-entry object is emitted as a key followed by its value; list values emit the key followed by multiple values, and boolean true emits only the key. This keeps positional arguments explicit and avoids using null as a sentinel.

Argument	Required	Description
arguments	yes	Ordered Robot Framework command-line arguments
cwd	no	Working directory for the command

robotframework.test

Argument	Required	Description
continueOnFailure	no	When true, log robot failures and continue the stage (default: false)

When continueOnFailure is true, a non-zero robot exit code is logged and recorded, later steps in the same stage still run, and the stage fails after all steps complete.

Example

{
  "module": "robotframework.test",
  "args": {
    "continueOnFailure": true,
    "arguments": [
      {"--outputdir": "results"},
      "tests"
    ]
  }
}

Example without deferred failure

{
  "module": "robotframework.test",
  "args": {
    "arguments": [
      {"--outputdir": "results"},
      "tests"
    ]
  }
}

robotframework.rebot

Example

{
  "module": "robotframework.rebot",
  "args": {
    "arguments": [
      {"--outputdir": "results/rebot"},
      {"--name": "Builddrone Robot Example"},
      "results/output.xml"
    ]
  }
}
