Package: dbbot-robotframework
DbBot is a Python script to serializeRobot Frameworkoutput files into
a SQLite database. This way the futureRobot Frameworkrelated tools and
plugins will have a unified storage for the test run results.DbBot-SQLAlchemy is a fork of DbBot project that is using SQLAlchemy in order
to store test run results in any of the major supported database systems.The goal is to support the following databases:PostgreSQLMySQLOracleMS SQLSQLiteRequirementsDbBot-SQLAlchemy is tested onPython3.5+Robot Framework3.0+SQLAlchemy1.2+It may (though it is not guaranteed) work with older versions of dependencies.How it worksThe script takes one or moreoutput.xmlfiles as input, initializes the
database schema, and stores the respective results into a SQLite database
(robot_results.dbby default, can be changed by specifying SQLAlchemy
database URL with options-bor–database).
If database schema is already existing, it will insert the new
results into that database.InstallationThis tool is installed with pip with command:$ pip install dbbot-sqlalchemyAlternatively you can download thesource distribution, extract it and
install using:$ python setup.py installWhat is storedBoth the test data (names, content) and test statistics (how many did pass or
fail, possible errors occurred, how long it took to run, etc.) related to
suites and test cases are stored by default. However, keywords and related
data are not stored as it might take order of magnitude longer for massive
test runs. You can choose to store keywords and related data by using-kor–also-keywordsflag.Usage examplesTypical usage with a single output.xml file:python -m dbbot.run atests/testdata/one_suite/test_output.xmlIf the database does not already exist, it’s created. Otherwise the test
results are just inserted into the existing database. Only new results are
inserted.The default database is SQLite database namedrobot_results.db.Additional options are:Short formatLong formatDescription-k–also-keywordsParse also suites’ and
tests’ keywords-v–verbosePrint output to the
console.-b DB_URL–database=DB_URLSQLAlchemy database URL
for test run results-d–dry-runDo everything except
store the results.Specifying custom database name:$ python -m dbbot.run  -b sqlite:///my_own_database.db atests/testdata/one_suite/test_output.xml
$ python -m dbbot.run  -b postgresql://postgres:postgres@localhost:5432/postgres atests/testdata/one_suite/test_output.xmlParsing test run results with keywords and related data included:python -m dbbot.run -k atests/testdata/one_suite/test_output.xmlGiving multiple test run result files at the same time:python -m dbbot.run atests/testdata/one_suite/test_output.xml atests/testdata/one_suite/output_latter.xmlDatabaseYou can inspect the created database using thesqlite3command-line tool:$ sqlite3 robot_results.dbsqlite>.tablesarguments        suite_status     test_run_errors  tests

        GROUP BY tests.name;Please note that when database is initialized, no indices are created by
DbBot. This is to avoid slowing down the inserts. You might want to add
indices to the database by hand to speed up certain queries in your own
scripts.For information about the database schema, seedoc/robot_database.md.Use case example: Most failing testsOne of the common use cases for DbBot is to get a report of the most commonly
failing suites, tests and keywords. There’s an example for this purpose inexamples/FailBot/bin/failbot.Failbot is a Python script used to produce a summary web page of the failing
suites, tests and keywords, using the information stored in the DbBot
database. Please adjust (the barebone) HTML templates inexamples/FailBot/templatesto your needs.Writing your own scriptsPlease take a look at the modules inexamples/FailBot/failbotas an example
on how to build on top of the classes provided by DbBot to satisfy your own
scripting needs.LicenseDbBot is released under theApache License, Version 2.0.See LICENSE.TXT for details.
