Robot Framework is ...

Session Type

Talk

Abstract

Robocon 2022 "Robot Framework Is Not ..." put forth that we needed a style guide. Well, 2 years and several biweekly meetings later the style guide workgroup can finally unveil the official Robot Framework style guide.

Description

In this presentation we will talk about how it began, the start of the workgroup, how we made decisions on guide content (user guide, Robocop, Robotidy, folklore, etc ...), where we are today, and finally where do we want to go and who should be involved?

The next part of the presentation we will offer practical examples on adoption and implementation of the style guide.

Including, but not limited to:

• Horzontal Spacing

• Vertical spacing

• Line continuation

• etc...

Finally we need from the Robot Framework community!

• More discussion -> where? Slack channels join work group

• More PR's -> Check in ideas to the repo

• More content -> which? Help us decide the direction of the next version

Post talk message: Please attend the Tutorial for a hands on experience using the style guide.

The style guide is a community asset, the more we treat it as such, the more authority it will gain.

Attend our talk and Kelby promises more pictures of gnomes...
