Can you help us in solving this issue ?
@gabko
You are using Robot + Zoomba + Winappdriver.
Wanted to know how to attach already open application. Could you please help.
Thanks. I will try
Hi i’m newbie.
I also use Robot + Zoomba + Winappdriver to learn Automating Desktop Application
Do you know any useful tool to get id,name of element ?
Example:
How do I know what is the id, name of Format ?
There are a few tools but a couple are listed in the docs: https://accruent.github.io/robotframework-zoomba/DesktopLibraryDocumentation.html
Namely you could use Accessibility insights for ids, class, name, etc and the WinAppDriver UI Recorder to get an xpath
That format button seems to just have a Name to use:
So you could click this via something like:
Click Element name=Format
Thanks Sir !!!
I Man, are you ok? I’ve been trying to use zoomba with Robot and I’m having some difficulties, could you give me a hand? Do you have an email that I can contact you?
Hi! Since Zoomba 3.00 both Desktop and Apps testing were moved to Application Library, so that Zoomba could keep updating, due to WinAppDriver and AppiumLibrary update issues.
Hope it helps
I am searching for an active and working robot library. Which enables desktop automation through ocr, Sikulilibrary was good but is not maintained anymore.
That does not mean it does not work. I use it everyday in my work.
You may want to use a more updated, package I make available here.
If you have issues regarding library, make a github issue instead. Because this forum is not monitored or seen by library contributors.
I have seen the use of press keys in your example is wrong
Press keys expect several keys als robot list.
You should use instead
Press Key t'abc@d.com' <xpath>
Or
@{keys} Create list t'firstText' t'secondText'
Press Keys ${keys} <xpath>
