Attachments in allure_robotframework

You can attach data and files to a test result with the Attach and Attach File keywords.

Data attachment

Use the Attach to attach some textual data to your test:

*** Settings ***
Library         AllureLibrary

*** Variables ***
${log_message}  This attachment was created using the allure_robotframework
...             library

*** Test Cases ***
Data Attachment
    Attach      ${log_message}

You can provide a name and a type of your attachments:

*** Settings ***
Library     AllureLibrary

*** Variables ***
${links}    https://github.com/allure-framework/allure2
...         https://github.com/allure-framework/allure-python

*** Test Cases ***
Data Attachment
    Attach  ${links}
    ...     name=links  attachment_type=URI_LIST

File attachment

Use the Attach File keyword to attach some file:

*** Settings ***
Library     AllureLibrary

*** Test Cases ***
File Attachment
    Attach File     ./my_file.txt

It's possible to specify a name and a type of the attachment:

*** Settings ***
Library             AllureLibrary

*** Test Cases ***
File Attachment
    Attach File     ./my_file.txt
    ...             name=my-file  attachment_type=TEXT

Automatic attachments

If you want to automatically attach files, created by some library, you can use the trick, described below.

Lets say, we want to automatically attach screenshots, created by the SeleniumLibrary's Capture Page Screenshot keyword. To achieve that, lets create a wrapper over the SeleniumLibrary:

selenium_wrapper.py:

import allure
from robot.libraries.BuiltIn import BuiltIn

class SeleniumWrapper:
    ROBOT_LIBRARY_SCOPE = "TEST SUITE"
    ROBOT_LISTENER_API_VERSION = 2

    def __init__(self):
        self.ROBOT_LIBRARY_LISTENER = self

    def _start_suite(self, name, attrs):
        BuiltIn().set_library_search_order(__name__)

    def capture_page_screenshot(self, *args, **kwargs):
        target_lib = BuiltIn().get_library_instance('SeleniumLibrary')
        path = target_lib.capture_page_screenshot(*args, **kwargs)
        allure.attach.file(
            path,
            name="page",
            attachment_type=allure.attachment_type.JPG
        )
        return path

selenium_wrapper = SeleniumWrapper

The wrapper sets itself as the first library in the library resolution order of the Robot Framework. It uses the SeleniumLibrary under the hood, attaching the output file to the allure report.

Import both the library and the wrapper in your .robot file:

*** Settings ***
Library     SeleniumLibrary
Library     ./selenium_wrapper.py

*** Test Cases ***
Automatic Screenshot Attachment
    Open Browser                https://localhost:443    Chrome
    Capture Page Screenshot
    [Teardown]  Close Browser

All screenshots are now automatically attached to your allure report.
