There are so many posts available which states how to install/setup and configure robotframwork in python, however i didn't find any good posts which states how to configure robotframework in Java. So decided to write a blog.
Install/Setup Robot Framework
To run webdriver test with RoboFramework in java you require following two jar files.
Download the above two files and put that into some directory.
Sample Test Case
Create the testcase.txt as mention below into the same directory in which you downloaded JARs
***Setting***
Library Selenium2Library
*** Test Cases ***
Get Current Browser Test
Open Browser http://google.com
Run Test Case
To run the RobotFramework test case you need to set the CLASSPATH. Please add above jar files into your classapth and run the following command
java org.robotframework.RobotFramework run testcase.txt
Verify Results
Results will be located into same directory in which you have created test case.

@cherukuri would you let me know what kind of error message you are getting ?
Thanks Gaurang, I just ran successfully!
@Cherukuri,
Did u set the classpath for those 2 jars?
@Gaurang shah,
Need your help!
I am a Webdriver +JAVA+Eclipse automation tester. Don't know Python.
Now, learning Robot framework.
Very much confused how to use Robot + Selenium + Eclipse.
I did what you suggested and the small test ran fine.
Googled many forums, but nothing was clear about these points.
I want to use Robot +Selenium +Java + Eclipse - Is this possible?
Or, we don't need Eclipse?
Some says I should install Python, some says Jython??? Though without installing these, I could run the small test above.
What is the way to run tens of test as we do with WebDriver.
Thanks in advance for your time!
@chekrui,
If you really want to use Robot Framwork I would suggest learn python, it's easy if you know java. The reason is, with Java developing custom keyworkd for robot framework ain't easy.
Thanks for your help Gaurang!
I googled and tried in many ways, but still not clear how to achieve my task.
I am struggling with - how to start Java+Robot Framework.
If you can point to some website for this BASIC stuff, I can learn.
Or, if you can give even a single line of code java + Robot Framework - That is great for me!
For this:
1. Should I install Python. (I installed Robotframework through eclipse-->)
2. What are the Jars I should place in the build path.
3. How can I write my own keywords, and how I can associate them with Robot.
Just basic steps that are related to the set-up are needed.
Thanks
