Mathew AttleeI am proud to announce that vim-test now has support for the <a href="https://fosstodon.org/@robotframework" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@robotframework</a>, even if it took five years since it was first requested <a href="https://github.com/vim-test/vim-test/issues/456" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://github.com/vim-test/vim-test/issues/456</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/RobotFramework" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RobotFramework</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Vim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Vim</a>

Mathew AttleeWhat syntax support is there in either Vim or Neovim for editing <a href="https://fosstodon.org/@robotframework" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@robotframework</a> files? When I try opening a robot file in either, it doesn't have a file type. <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/RobotFramework" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RobotFramework</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Vim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Vim</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Neovim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Neovim</a>

BorutzkiMeanwhile, in <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/RobotFramework" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RobotFramework</a> universe, a new tool emerges that allows for setting up test dependencies.So, for example if test X fails, then test Y does not make sense, hence is not executed.It might be actually useful in many end-to-end scenarios, where the rule of keeping tests independent causes either a lot of repetition of costly operations. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Python" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Python</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/DailyPythonista" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DailyPythonista</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TestAutomation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TestAutomation</a> <a href="https://pypi.org/project/robotframework-dependencysolver/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://pypi.org/project/robotframework-dependencysolver/</a>

Markus StahlMoved to a new apartment, went through paper boxes, and found this certificate:5 years ago, I finally learned what Camunda 7 workflow engine actually does.

BorutzkiLooks like now you can become "Robot Framework Certified Professional" for €240 🤖Even if you don't plan to do the whole examination, it's worth taking a look on the syllabus. For me, it looks like a singular document that I would point to whenever asked by someone about "how to learn Robot Framework".What do you think about such certification?
