Robot Framework：无法使用文件中包含unicode的变量来运行Robot测试用例

Question

When I try to run the following script I get the error:

UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xa5 in position 63: invalid start byte

Note- I have to use the same variable , so alternative locators But if remove the yen symbol it works fine-` how to fix it

***Settings***
Library    Selenium2Library

*** Variables ***
${DC_CURRENCY_SELECTOR_VERIFY}   xpath=//label[contains(text(),' ¥ 10')] 


***Test Cases***
Test browser
    open browser    http://google.com    chrome

Answer 1

You can use the string keywords provided by Robot framework in order to encode your variable. I believe something like this will work:

${DC_CURRENCY_SELECTOR_VERIFY} =    Encode String To Bytes    ${DC_CURRENCY_SELECTOR_VERIFY}   ASCII    errors=ignore
