name	rf-results
description	Parse Robot Framework output.xml results into JSON summaries, detailed suite/test breakdowns, tag and criticality stats, execution errors, failed test messages, keyword-level errors, and timing. Use when asked to read/merge output.xml, compute pass/fail counts, tag stats, criticality, error messages, elapsed time, slowest tests/keywords, or combine/merge multiple outputs via rebot.

Robot Framework Results

Use the bundled script to read Robot Framework output.xml and return JSON. It supports:

• summary totals
• detailed suite/test breakdowns
• tag statistics and criticality grouping
• execution errors, failed test messages, and keyword-level errors
• timing (keyword timing is opt-in)
• single or multiple outputs (merge or combine with rebot)

Quick start

Single file summary:

python scripts/rf_results.py --output output.xml --sections summary

Multiple outputs, merged (--merge replaces earlier results when tests overlap):

python scripts/rf_results.py --outputs out1.xml out2.xml --merge --sections summary,details

Multiple outputs, combined under a new top-level suite (no --merge):

python scripts/rf_results.py --outputs out1.xml out2.xml --name Combined --sections summary

Include keyword timing in timing output:

python scripts/rf_results.py --output output.xml --sections timing --include-keyword-timing

Output sections

• summary: totals, suite/test counts, overall status
• details: suites, tests, failed tests, tag stats, criticality stats
• errors: execution errors, failed test messages, keyword errors
• timing: totals and slowest tests; keyword timing requires --include-keyword-timing

Notes

• Criticality grouping: inferred from tags critical, noncritical, or non-critical. If none of these tags are present, the test is grouped as unspecified.
• For multiple outputs, use --merge to mirror rebot --merge behavior. Without --merge, rebot combines outputs under a new top-level suite (name via --name).
• JSON output is written to stdout. Use --pretty for indented JSON.
