In this example, you will learn how to use RIDE in Selenium Robot Framework Python test automation.
Test Case: authorized users are able to login Mahara Demo site. Here are test steps.
1. Navigate to demo.mahara.org and verify that web page title "Home-Mahara" displays.
2. Enter "student2" in the Username filed.
3. Enter "Testing1" in the Password field.
4. Click on the Login button
5. Assert that Dashboard Title is "Dashboard - Mahara".
Note: if the above username and password do not work, try registering one and
use your own user account for testing because the demo user password may have
been changed by others.
Step 3: in the navigation window, Right Click and choose "New Directory" and enter "LoginModuleTest".
Step 6: click on the "Run" tab and execute the test case "LoginTest".
Step 7: check the log file "C:\MaharaDemoTest\LoginModuleTest\TestResult\log-20140601-232305.html" and result file "C:\MaharaDemoTest\LoginModuleTest\TestResult\report-20140601-232305.html".
