A pizza ordering demo for Robot Framework Browser

A Robot Framework automation script for ordering pizza from pizzabuona.ch. The script automates everything up to the final confirmation, allowing for manual review before placing the order.

Note: This project currently has the author's favorite order hard-coded (Pizza Contadina with extra toppings and Calzone Bomba). While you can use this as a template for your own pizza ordering automation, you'll need to modify the selectors and order details in src/keywords/pizza_keywords.resource to match your preferred pizzas.

Features

• Automatically fills in delivery location
• Orders a Pizza Contadina with two extra toppings
• Orders a Calzone Bomba
• Fills in all delivery details
• Selects on-site credit card payment method
• Stops at final confirmation for manual review

Prerequisites

• Python 3.x
• Robot Framework
• Browser Library for Robot Framework

Installation

We recommend using uv for faster and more reliable package management, but you can also use vanilla Python.

Option 1: Using uv (Recommended)

1. Install uv (see installation docs):

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

2. Initialize the project and install dependencies:

uv sync  # This will create venv and install dependencies from pyproject.toml
source .venv/bin/activate

Option 2: Using vanilla Python

1. Create a virtual environment:

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate

2. Install dependencies:

pip install robotframework robotframework-browser

Final Step (Both Methods)

Initialize the Browser library:

rfbrowser init

Configuration

1. Copy the environment template to create your .env file:

cp resources/.env.template resources/.env

2. Edit resources/.env with your delivery details:

POSTCODE="1234"
CUSTOMER_FIRST_NAME="John"
CUSTOMER_LAST_NAME="Doe"
STREET_AND_NUMBER="Example Street 123"
PHONE="+41123456789"
EMAIL="[email protected]"
DELIVERY_INFO="1st Floor" (optional)

Usage

Run the automation:

./run.sh

The script will:

1. Open Chrome
2. Navigate through the ordering process
3. Fill in all details
4. Stop at the final confirmation
5. Keep the browser open for manual review (for 60 seconds or until Ctrl+C)

Development

To add new dependencies:

uv add <package-name>  # This will update pyproject.toml and uv.lock

To upgrade dependencies:

uv lock --upgrade-package <package-name>

Safety Features

• The final order confirmation button is intentionally commented out to prevent accidental orders
• Manual review is required before completing the order
• Browser stays open for verification before actual order placement
• Personal information is stored in resources/.env file (not committed to git)
