PlatynUI: Cross-Platform Desktop UI Automation for Robot Framework
2026-02-13 , RoboCon

PlatynUI is an open-source Robot Framework library that makes desktop UI automation feel consistent on Windows, Linux, and macOS. The talk introduces what PlatynUI is, why it was created, and the ideas behind it—portability across desktops, readable tests, and habits that reduce flakiness. We’ll walk through a compact demo using the library’s tooling to explore and interact with applications and outline how to try PlatynUI in existing suites without disruption.
