Package: robotframework-djangolibrary
IntroductionDjangoLibrary is a web testing library to test Django with Robot Framework.
It uses SeleniumLibrary to run tests against a real browser instance.The library will automatically start and stop your Django instance while running the tests.
It also comes with serveral autologin keywords that allow you to login different users during your tests, without the need to actually access the login page.DjangoLibrary is currently tested against Django 1.8.x, 1.9.x, 1.11.x with SQLite and Postgres on Python 2.7 and 3.6.DocumentationRobot Framework Django Library Keyword DocumentationInstallationInstall robotframework-djangolibrary with pip:$ pip install robotframework-djangolibraryIn order to be able to use DjangoLibrary’sAutologin,FactoryBoy, orQuerySetkeywords you have to add the corresponding middleware classes to
your MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES in yoursettings.py:MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
    ...
    'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
    'DjangoLibrary.middleware.AutologinAuthenticationMiddleware',
    'DjangoLibrary.middleware.FactoryBoyMiddleware',
    'DjangoLibrary.middleware.QuerySetMiddleware',
)!DANGER!Make sure that you add those middlewares only to your test setup and
NEVER to your deployment! The Autologin middleware just checks for a
‘autologin’ cookie and then authenticates and login ANY user.First Robot TestIn order to write your first robot test, make sure that you include SeleniumLibrary and DjangoLibrary. Create a test.robot file with the
following content:*** Variables ***

Report:  /home/timo/workspace/prounix/robotframework-djangolibrary/report.htmlTest Isolationrobotframework-djangolibrary does not provide isolation between tests by
default. This means if you add an object to the database in a test, this
object will be present in the next test as well. You need to cleanup
yourself in order to have a proper isolation between the tests. You can use
the robotframework “Test Teardown” call to call the “Clear DB” keyword after
each test:*** Settings ***
