Robot Framework run command giving issue "[ ERROR ] Suite 'Acceptance' contains no tests or tasks."

I am creating simple Robot framework project in Eclipse from one of the Youtube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5LQJttkunQ ). Project Structure is like:

Automation
|
src
|
test
|
RobotFramework
|
acceptance
|
TestCase.robot

Maven command: robotframework:run

Error:

[ WARN ] Command line option --xunitskipnoncritical has been deprecated and has no effect.
[ ERROR ] Suite 'Acceptance' contains no tests or tasks.
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal [32morg.robotframework:robotframework-maven-plugin:2.1.0:run[m [1m(default-cli)[m on project [36mAutomation[m: [1;31mInvalid test data or command line options.[m -> [1m[Help 1]

Please help and let me know if any other details are required.

I tried upgrading the maven plugin version for Robot Framework.

I am expecting to have this program run successfully once.

TestCase.robot:

Test Case in Eclipse

Solution

  • The error message is correct. Your test suite, does not have a test case. It does not even have a *** Test Cases *** section.

    Try your corrected example:

    Note: I don't have a Maven or Eclipse setup to test, but it worked on latest Robot Framework and SeleniumLibrary. You could have also tested in these conditions.
