Rcc

RCC was one of the game changers with the introduction of Robotmk V2 - it takes care of the entire lifecycle of the Python environments that Robot Framework needs.

That’s super convenient, but there’s a catch: RCC assumes that the test host has access to the internet to download the required packages. This article describes a very practical way to use it in isolated environments.

RCC is the command line tool used to build Python environments for the Robotmk Framework. The practical advantage of this is that it can be used both during test development and during execution by Robotmk. This ensures that the scripts always run in a reliable environment.

However, errors can sometimes occur when building or activating the environments.
This article summarizes the most common sources of errors when working with RCC and shows how to fix them efficiently.

In this blog article, we shed light on the background to the development of RCC, the problems it solves and the immense advantage it brings to the Robotmk project.
