Robot framework -- 02 menu bar & Toolbar

From: http://blog.csdn.net/tulituqi/article/details/7584795

 

I divided the ride interface into four areas: menu bar, toolbar, Case, resource area, and work area, such

 

Menu Bar: all ride functions are provided here;

Tool bar: commonly used functions that allow quick operations;

Case and Resource Area: this will be a tree structure with the same directory (currently it is just opened, and there is only an empty external resources in it)

Workspace: Here is the operation area for editing the case and running case.

 

As a matter of fact, I have been wondering how this tool is easier for everyone to understand. The most convenient thing is to explain it with actual examples. This will certainly happen. However, I think we should give a comprehensive introduction to the tool first. Of course, for the menu bar and toolbar, we only list the function descriptions, because they will be used later. For the case area and work area, I will explain it in actual cases.

 

= Menu bar & toolbar =

Many common commands that everyone is familiar with will not be detailed here. In fact, most of the commands will appear later in the explanation. So I want to focus on each menu.

1. File

 

Open	Open a file
Open Directory	Open a directory

 

Corresponding to the two icons in the toolbar:

 

 

Reload directory

Reload directory

 

Corresponding toolbar icon

This function is a good improvement. I haven't seen it before when I use 0.42. It should have been newly added. The function is to reload the entire directory (or project ).

In 0.42, I usually use the recently opened project above exit to reload.

Save and save all, corresponding icons: You have modified multiple files and can save them all with the icons on the right.

 

2. Edit

Many functions are familiar to everyone.

 

3. Tools

 

Manage plugins	Management plugin
Search unused keywords	Search for unused keywords
Preferences	Parameter configuration
Preview	Preview
Content compliance ance	Content Assistant
Search keywords	Search keywords
View ride log	View ride logs

 

 

Run test suite	Run test suite
Stop running	Stop running

 

The last two icons are

Commonly used: the last two are certainly commonly used.

In addition, I think the most commonly used one is the F5-Search keywords, we can easily find the keywords of the Test Library and its parameters and samples when writing the case.

The other is content balance ance, but this function is a little inconvenient, mainly because the shortcut key, because Ctrl + space conflicts with our English and Chinese switching, and CTRL + ALT + space are not quite used to it. My approach is to change the CTRL + space of the Input Method to something else, so that you can use it.

Here is a new function: Search unused KEYWORDS = search for unused keywords. If there are more keywords, there may be some unused keywords, which can be more convenient.

 

4. navigate navigation

Move back and forward to facilitate jump in the case area, corresponding icons

 

5. Run (in fact, I think this name is not suitable. I can't think of a proper name after octal. For details about the function, refer to the following description)

I have never used this setting. After a brief study, I can write some command line statements and run them directly through the menu. It is mainly for some commands that can be run through command lines and can be customized.

For example, below I simply configured two

Let's take a look at the run menu and click "run.

Click the second run to see if a tab page is added directly to the workspace, and the running result is displayed on the page. If you are free, we will study this page in depth.

 

6. Help

Let alone this.
