Hi everyone,  
In Cucumber, i have step below:  
When I input “[abc@gmail.com](mailto:abc@gmail.com)” to username and “12345” to password  
So i want to convert it to robotframework below : I input ${username} to username and ${password} to password.  
But it seems that params can only be placed at the end of the keyword.  
is there any way to set param as i want??

Hello,

It is actually possible to embed arguments within keywords to achieve something similar to your Cucumber test, see this section of the user guide:
