Robotmk Starter: Get Started Right Away with Synthetic Monitoring
No more flying blind: Ready-to-use, CI-tested Robot Framework suites as a starting point for successful synthetic monitoring in Checkmk.
Beginners in Robot Framework know the feeling: you sit in front of the first empty .robot file and wonder: How do I start? Which files do I need? How do robot.yaml, conda.yaml, and robot.toml work together?
At this point, it’s easy to lose track – the right starting point is missing, as well as a basic orientation.
For this purpose, I created the Robotmk Starter Repo: a curated set of ready-to-use, CI-tested examples and templates.
In this blog post, I will introduce the three most important examples, explain the underlying concepts, and show how to try them out immediately – either locally or directly in the browser with GitHub Codespaces.
