# Getting Started With Robot Framework In Python
Perform the following steps for running Robot tests on local machine or LambdaTest Cloud Grid
## Installation of Python packages
Packages that need to be installed are present in *pyproject.toml* Execution is performed on the LambdaTest Selenium Grid. We are using latest Selenium version for the execution. Install the project dependencies by running ```poetry install``` or ```poetry install --no-root``` on the terminal
The global dependencies (i.e. Robot Framework and latest Selenium) are installed by running ```pip install -r requirements.txt``` or ```pip3 install -r requirements.txt```on the terminal
## Configure Environment Variables
Before the tests are run, please set the environment variables LT_USERNAME & LT_ACCESS_KEY from the terminal. The account details are available on your [LambdaTest Profile](https://accounts.lambdatest.com/detail/profile) page.
For macOS:
```bash
export LT_USERNAME=LT_USERNAME
export LT_ACCESS_KEY=LT_ACCESS_KEY
```
For Linux:
```bash
export LT_USERNAME=LT_USERNAME
export LT_ACCESS_KEY=LT_ACCESS_KEY
```
For Windows:
```bash
set LT_USERNAME=LT_USERNAME
set LT_ACCESS_KEY=LT_ACCESS_KEY
```
Since the same tests can be executed with Robot on local machine and Robot on LambdaTest cloud grid, the environment variable EXEC_PLATFORM also needs to be set before execution.
For execution with Robot on local machine:
```bash
export EXEC_PLATFORM=local
```
For execution with Robot on LambdaTest cloud grid:
```bash
export EXEC_PLATFORM=cloud
```
## Execution of Robot Tests
The Robot tests are located in the [Common folder](https://github.com/hjsblogger/getting-started-with-robot-framework/tree/main/Tests/Common). Hence, there is a flexibility to run all the four tests with Robot on local as well cloud. Once the environment variables are set, run the command ```robot Tests/Common/``` on the terminal to trigger the test execution.
Shown below is the execution snapshot of Robot tests running on local machine:
Shown below is the execution snapshot of Robot tests running on LambdaTest cloud grid:
As seen on the [LambdaTest Automation Dashboard](https://automation.lambdatest.com/build), the test execution is successful:
Here is the successful execution status as seen in the [LambdaTest Automation Dashboard](https://automation.lambdatest.com/build)
