Robot Framework

Generic open source automation framework for acceptance testing

About Robot Framework

A generic open source automation framework for acceptance testing, acceptance test-driven development and robotic process automation, using human-readable syntax and extensible libraries in Python and Java. Because the code is openly available, it can be audited, extended and run on private infrastructure, which makes it attractive to teams with privacy or compliance needs. It is commonly adopted through containers or packages, evaluated against commercial alternatives and kept because it solves a focused problem reliably at scale.
