Hi everyone,
I wanted to share a lightweight open-source listener I recently published to help streamline test failure analysis: robotframework-failuresummary.
The Problem: When running large automation suites, digging through massive console outputs or deeply nested standard logs just to isolate exactly why multiple tests failed can take unnecessary time and effort.
The Solution: This listener runs right alongside your execution and automatically compiles a standalone, beautifully structured, interactive failure_summary.html dashboard inside your output folder. It isolates only the broken steps, stack traces, and relevant screenshots into a clean, deep-linking interface.
Quick Start: You can install and use it right away from PyPI:
pip install robotframework-failuresummary
To run it with your test suites, just append the listener flag:
robot --listener RobotFailureSummary your_tests.robot
Open Source & Contributions: The project is completely open source. You can check out the codebase, look over the configuration, or drop a star here: GitHub - Srinivasan2802/robotframework-failuresummary · GitHub
I would love to get your feedback, feature requests, or suggestions on how to improve it for your everyday testing workflows!
