RemoteLaunch with Command-line Tools

The ${filename} part only works when the test script is attached to the script in the text box part of the Automation tab. It won't substitute it for general SpiraTest attachments.

I'd suggest logging a help desk ticket if you have any questions.

Hi Folks,

Good news, we have just released a Robot Framework integration:

• https://github.com/Inflectra/robot-framework
• https://pypi.org/project/spira-robot-framework/
• https://spiradoc.inflectra.com/Unit-Testing-Integration/Integrating-with-Robot-Framework/

Instead of directly specifying "${filename}" in the Filename field, you need to pass the actual filename "widgets.txt". Since you mentioned that you don't want the file to be downloaded, you can't directly reference it in the Filename field.

However, you can achieve this by passing the filename as an argument when running the Robot Framework test script. Here's an example command you can use in the command-line tools:

C:\Python27\Scripts\pybot.bat your_test_script.robot --variable filename:widgets.txt

In this command:

• Replace "your_test_script.robot" with the actual filename of your Robot Framework test script.
• "--variable filename:widgets.txt" sets a variable named "filename" with the value "widgets.txt". This variable can then be accessed within your test script.

Within your Robot Framework test script, you can access the filename using the ${filename} variable, like this:

*** Settings ***
Variables    widgets.txt

*** Test Cases ***
Example Test
    Log    The filename is: ${filename}
    # Add your test steps here
