Error in Serializing "c:\path\path" [Errno 13] Permission Denied: C:\\path\\path

Question

I created one test one test case in Ride using Robot framework. while running am getting the error.

I updated the path of python. I updated the library and Ride. I changed the folder and it didn't work

*** Settings ***
Documentation     This is a simple test with Robot Framework
Library           SeleniumLibrary

*** Variables ***
${SERVER}         http://www.google.com
${BROWSER}        chrome
${DELAY}          0

*** Keywords ***
Open Browser To Login Page
    Open Browser    ${SERVER}    ${BROWSER}
    S
    Maximize Browser Window
    Set Selenium Speed    ${DELAY}

Expected Result should allow to run the test case. Actual result and getting the "Error in Serializing"

Answer 1

This is a issue in the Ride. It looks like once you add a test case as .robot and added a manual script, ride have a issue in saving the file as a Test Suite.

I guess this is the issue you are facing :

There are two workarounds to resolve the issue

Work around 1

With out adding the test steps soon after you created the test case,

• Create and save the test case name
• Close Ride
• Re-Open ride (Now you'll be able to add the test cases and save them with out any issue)

Adding Test Suite and Test Case: Editing Test Cases:

Work around 2

Add the test.robot file manually in your working directly. Then you'll be able to directly edit and save the test cases

Manual addition of test cases and editing:

Hope this helps Cheers
