Running robotframework-camunda

The tests folder has example robot tests for keywords already implemented. Those tests assume you already have an instance of camunda running.

Easiest way of running camunda is to launch with with docker:

docker run -d --name camunda -p 8080:8080 camunda/camunda-bpm-platform:run-latest

Deploy process definition

*** Settings ***
Library    CamundaLibrary    ${CAMUNDA_HOST}

*** Variables ***
${CAMUNDA_HOST}    http://localhost:8080

*** Test Cases ***
Test deployment of models
    ${response}    deploy model from file    ${CURDIR}/../../bpmn/demo_for_robot.bpmn

Starting a process instance

*** Settings ***
Library    CamundaLibrary    ${CAMUNDA_HOST}

*** Variables ***
${CAMUNDA_HOST}    http://localhost:8080

*** Test Cases ***
Test starting process
    #GIVEN
    ${process_definition_key}    Set Variable    demo_for_robot

    # WHEN
    ${process_instance}    start process    ${process_definition_key}

Execute Task

"Executing task" bascialy means, you execute a robot task that fetches a workload from camunda, processes it and returns its workload back to camunda during completion. Main keywords involved are:

  1. CamundaLibrary.Fetch workload
  2. CamundaLibrary.Complete Task
*** Settings ***
Library    CamundaLibrary    ${CAMUNDA_HOST}
Library    Collections

*** Variables ***
${CAMUNDA_HOST}    http://localhost:8000
${existing_topic}    process_demo_element

*** Test Cases ***
Process workload
    ${variables}    fetch workload   topic=${existing_topic}
    ${recent_task}    Get fetch response
    log    Recent task:\t${recent_task}

    Pass Execution If    not ${recent_task}    No workload fetched from Camunda

    # do some processing

    # create result and return workload to Camunda
    ${my_result}    Create Dictionary    lastname=Stahl
