Robot Framework IDE 2.1.2
Please see the complete release notes here.
Below is an excerpt of it:
RIDE (Robot Framework IDE) v2.1.2 is a new release with some enhancements and bug fixes. The reference for valid arguments is Robot Framework previous version, which was 7.1.1 (currently is 7.2). However, internal library code is originally based on version 3.1.2, but adapted for new versions.
This version supports Python 3.8 up to 3.13.
There are some changes, or known issues:
- 🐞 - When upgrading RIDE and activate Restart, some errors are visible about missing /language file, and behaviour is not normal. Better to close RIDE and start a new instance.
- 🐞 - Problems with COPY/PASTE in Text Editor have been reported when using wxPython 4.2.0, but not with version 4.2.1 and 4.2.2, which we now recommend
- 🐞 - Rename Keywords, Find Usages/Find where used are not finding all occurrences. Please, double-check findings and changes.
- 🐞 - Some argument types detection (and colorization) is not correct in Grid Editor.
- 🐞 - RIDE DOES NOT KEEP Test Suites formatting or structure, causing differences in files when used on other IDE or Editors. The option to not reformat the file is not working.
New Features and Fixes Highlights
- Partial fix of no update of renaming resource prefixed keywords. Issue #1230 from 29 Jan 2013.
- Fixed no recognition of keywords with embedded arguments and full name. Issue #1106 from 12 Sep 2012.
Linux users are advised to install first wxPython from .whl package at wxPython.org, or by using the system package manager.
