Paramiko is a dependency off the SSHLibrary.

According to this here https://code.google.com/p/robotframework-sshlibrary/wiki/InstallationInstructions it should have automatically installed when the 'pip' installer was used like in :

pip install robotframework-sshlibrary


You can also test if all depencies are met with:

python-c"import SSHLibrary"


As you said you used pip, I am not sure what went wrong. I myself run a Fedora20 type workstation from which I run these tests with the test SME in a virtual box on another server.

Other than that, the Remote Access tests also require the SSH and FTP access to be enabled in server-manager. I just added some steps to set this up automatically before those tests and disable it again after the tests.

The fails in the Software installer pages, I am not sure about. Looks like it is part of the problems I had earlier with
selenium and the selection of frames when buttons get clicked.

38/47 passed. A lot worked first time, and this is against a recent SME9 Beta 3

Looks like I need to have more things installed.

"Importing Paramiko library failed. Make sure you have Paramiko installed."

However I have them installed according to yum & PIP.

*Subject:* [discussion] SME Test Automation on GitHub

I pushed my git repository to GitHub to make it more easy to allow updates from others.

It is now located here:

https://github.com/MarcoHess/smeserver-test-automation

I also updated the http://wiki.contribs.org/Robotframework wiki page to reflect that location change.

I would encourage anybody that has been playing with these tests to follow the 'fork' and 'pull request' process (https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo) to submit your updates and I will endeavor to merge these into the master repository.

Note that with the latest update I managed to get a test to work that adds and deletes a hostname.

This illustrates a couple of techniques to fill in forms, click the right buttons and even use a fancy xpath expression to find a link to click within a table.

I am looking forward to plenty of pull requests to make this into a comprehensive SME validation framework.

Cheers,

Marco

    Brian,

    That is pretty cool that you were able to run them all :-).

    With regard to the input fields, I found that selenium has some
    trouble when frames get reloaded (i.e. after clicking a button)
    and it not immediatly sees the new frame on the page. I found that
    selecting waiting for the page to load and then selecting away
    from the frame (like to the navigation frame) and then back to the
    main frame helps a lot. Other than that at this stage I think it
    is mostly learning curve with the robot framework. Too early to
    tell if we need changes in the server manager web pages to
    accomodate the testing.

    I replied to Ian that I would move my private git repository to
    GitHub to make it more easy to provide contributions.

    Cheers,

    Marco

        I've just done an install from the 64 bit ISO under Virtual
        Box, and I've run Marco's (minimal) tests - all passed (inc
        ssh and ftp).

        We do need to enhance these so that they can be of proper use,
        I ran out of time a couple of weeks ago, but might have some
        more time soon.

        I had trouble getting the package to recognise the input
        fields in the Server Manager. Marco indicated he thought that
        it was to do with the html frames, which is well outside my
        understanding.

        If someone could look at this and give me a recipe for
        plugging data into the input fields in the server manager
        pages then I'm happy to plug away developing testing scripts
        for the system.

            been more progress on creating additional tests?

            Marco: As you currently have a GIT repo for the tests
            would you be willing to maintain that and accept
            contributions until the foundation sets up an official
            repository for the tests?

            I really appreciate the work that has gone on, thank you.

            That is good news.  I'll update the Wiki with instructions
            on how people can load your files and execute them.

            I'll also start thinking about a schedule of tests we can
            run (and I'll try and implement some of them!).

                    If there is a problem finding the buttons then

                    or look at Charlie's suggestion of mojo.


                I think I have figured out what the problem with the
                buttons in the web pages is. It has to do with
                selenium loosing the frame contents when it is
                reloaded. By unselecting and reselecting the "main"
                frame, the robot framework gets access to the elements
                in the frame again.

                I have done a minor update to the scripts in my
                repository and am trying more extensive form changes
                now. Currently  able to mostly change the software
                installer settings (but more frame reloads with yum
                status messes it up a bit).

                Cheers,

                Marco
