Hello, Robot Framework [1] is a generic open source test automation framework for acceptance testing and acceptance test driven development (ATDD). It has an easy-to-use tabular syntax for creating test cases and its testing capabilities can be extended by test libraries implemented either with Python or Java. It utilizes the keyword-driven testing approach and supports also data-driven testing and behavior-driven development (BDD). For executable example test cases see the Quick Start Guide [2] and the SeleniumLibrary demo [3].
Robot Framework 2.5 was released last Thursday. The biggest new features are continuing execution on failure, stopping execution gracefully, named arguments, full support for Jython 2.5, and test templates to ease data-driven testing. The new features, fixed bugs, and backwards incompatible changes are listed in the release notes [4], and release packages are available on the download page [5].
