New issue 1325 by pekka.klarck: Support named argument syntax also with
varargs
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=1325
Issue 1324 covers supporting named arguments syntax with required
arguments, but there is also inconsistent behavior when using named
argument syntax in combination with varargs.
Consider this example:
*** Test Cases ***
Example 1
Keyword x=a y=b
Example 2
Keyword x=a y=b z
*** Keywords ***
Keyword
[Arguments] ${x} ${y}=2 @{varargs}
Log ${x}
Log ${y}
Similarly as in the example in issue 1324, test Example 1 will log `x=a`
and `b`. What's even more strange is that due to varargs used after named
arguments Example 2 ends up logging `x=a` and `y=b`. This inconsistency
definitely needs to be fixed.
