Selenium test library for Robot Framework
=========================================

This library is **deprecated**. Please use `Selenium2Library
<https://github.com/robotframework/Selenium2Library>`_ instead.

Introduction
------------

SeleniumLibrary is a test library for Robot Framework that enables testing
of web applications. As the name suggests, it uses `Selenium tool
<http://selenium.openqa.org>`_ internally. Because it uses the deprecated
Selenium 1.0 version also the library itself is deprecated. All new projects
should use Selenium2Library_ and existing users are also recommended to upgrade
to it.

This projects has been migrated from dying `Google Code
<http://code.google.com/p/robotframework-seleniumlibrary/>`_.

Installation
------------

If you have pip installed, you can install SeleniumLibrary by running::

    pip install --upgrade robotframework-seleniumlibrary

For other alternatives and more information in general see `<INSTALL.rst>`__.

Usage
-----

To run tests with Robot Framework and SeleniumLibrary following things 
must be done

- SeleniumLibrary must be taken into use in Robot test data.
  See `Robot Framework User Guide`__ for more information.
- Selenium server must be started with command 
  ``java -jar [path_to_server]/selenium_server.jar``, where ``[path_to_server]``
  depends on platform. On Windows it will be 
  ``[PythonDir]\Lib\site-packages\SeleniumLibrary\lib`` and on Linux it is
  typically something like
  ``/usr/lib/python[version]/site-packages/SeleniumLibrary/lib``.
