We need to execute .py file after suite or test execution. We can achieve this by executing robot command and python one after other as follows:

• Create .bat (or) .sh file with following snippet

robot test.robot &&

python robotmetrics.py

&& is used to execute multiple command's in .bat file

• Modify robot command as required and execute .bat file

• Robotframework metrics will be created

Thanks for using robotframework-metrics!
