Learn how to integrate AI models like ChatGPT and Gemini with Robot Framework. Build Python libraries, generate test data and documentation, and explore generative AI for smarter test automation. Hands-on, practical, and focused on real-world testing workflows.
Workshop Goal:
This workshop will show you how to integrate generative AI (OpenAI and Gemini) with Robot Framework. Together we will create a simple Python library, connect it with Robot Framework, and explore how LLMs can boost your testing workflows.
Key Objectives:
- Learn how to connect Robot Framework with modern AI models
- Generate test documentation and keyword descriptions automatically
- Create dynamic test data on the fly
- Experiment with working files as context for AI
- Understand how to extend Robot Framework with custom Python libraries
Knowledge Level:
Basic Python coding skills and prior experience using Robot Framework. You should be comfortable writing simple functions in Python and running Robot Framework tests. This workshop is aimed at intermediate automation testers and developers who want to explore AI-powered testing.
Workshop Agenda (09:00–17:00):
- 09:00 – 09:30: Introduction – AI in testing, OpenAI and Gemini models, integration options
- 09:30 – 11:00: Building a Python Library – Live coding session to create a simple AI-powered library
- 11:00 – 12:00: Integrating with Robot Framework – Connecting the library to Robot Framework and running tests
- 12:00 – 13:00: Lunch Break
- 13:00 – 14:30: Working with Generative AI – Generating test data, documentation, and test cases dynamically
- 14:30 – 16:00: Hands-on Exercises – Extending the examples and experimenting with custom ideas
- 16:00 – 17:00: Wrap-up & Q&A – Best practices, limitations, and discussion
Preparation and Technical Requirements:
- Installed Python 3.10+
- Installed Robot Framework
- Basic IDE or editor (PyCharm, VSCode, etc.)
- API keys for OpenAI and Gemini (will be provided by us for the workshop day)
