Chapter 5. Generating Reports

While creating and executing tests does provide numerous benefits, there is a need to convey the results effectively to any viewer of the test, as an acceptance test can provide the fact that a given software can execute in a provided manner but cannot preserve this hypothesis. In this chapter, the concept of test reports in the Robot Framework will be discussed in detail, which covers understanding and customization of the generated reports through provided options, manual as well as automated changes. As the report internals are discussed in detail, report customization can be done with more confidence.
