    Page Should Contain    Welcome

*** Test Cases ***
Valid Login Flow
    Login As User    user@test.com    password123
    Verify Dashboard Is Displayed

Data-Driven Tests (Template)

*** Test Cases ***
Login With Various Users
    [Template]    Login And Verify
    admin@test.com    admin123    Dashboard
    user@test.com     pass123     Dashboard
    bad@test.com      wrong       Error

*** Keywords ***
Login And Verify
    [Arguments]    ${email}    ${password}    ${expected}
    Login As User    ${email}    ${password}
    Page Should Contain    ${expected}

API Testing (RequestsLibrary)

*** Settings ***
Library    RequestsLibrary

*** Test Cases ***
Get Users Returns 200
    ${response}=    GET    ${API_URL}/users    expected_status=200
    Should Not Be Empty    ${response.json()['users']}

Create User
    ${body}=    Create Dictionary    name=Alice    email=alice@test.com
    ${response}=    POST    ${API_URL}/users    json=${body}    expected_status=201
    Should Be Equal    ${response.json()['name']}    Alice

Cloud Config

*** Settings ***
Library    SeleniumLibrary

*** Variables ***
${REMOTE_URL}    https://%{LT_USERNAME}:%{LT_ACCESS_KEY}@hub.lambdatest.com/wd/hub

*** Keywords ***
Open Cloud Browser
    ${caps}=    Create Dictionary
    ...    browserName=chrome    browserVersion=latest
    ...    LT:Options=${{{"build":"Robot Build","name":"Login Test","platform":"Windows 11","video":True}}}
    Open Browser    ${BASE_URL}    remote_url=${REMOTE_URL}    desired_capabilities=${caps}

Setup: pip install robotframework robotframework-seleniumlibrary robotframework-requests

Report: report.html and log.html auto-generated

Deep Patterns

See reference/playbook.md for production-grade patterns:

Limitations

• Use this skill only when the task clearly matches its upstream source and local project context.
• Verify commands, generated code, dependencies, credentials, and external service behavior before applying changes.
• Do not treat examples as a substitute for environment-specific tests, security review, or user approval for destructive or costly actions.
