COAP library for robot framework

Robot Framework
1

Hello All, is there a library for Constrained Application Protocol ( CoAP ) requests?

Maybe if you expand the acronym COAP, we could know what you are talking about.

I changed the question: Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP).

Thanks.

Wikipedia has a nice entry here. It lists Python apps, so it should be easy to use with Robot Framework.

I never tested at that level, but there is a Protocol testing library, Rammbock.

Do you use M2M protocol?
If so, you can use Leshan java client and create RBF keywords.
If you wanna go really hard core you could use Wakama client written in C and compile it as python extension.

Yes, I use M2M protocol.
I have my own client and server LwM2M written in C. and it is with them that I want to communicate.
Thanks

Ok so the hard way it is :smile:

There are 3 steps to go though:

  1. Create a python extension from the client code
    (here’s a great video about it - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a65JdvOaygM)

  2. create a python module that will import the c extension and implement the keywords for the RBF script

  3. import the python module as a library to your RBF test script.

Good luck!
