How to execute a local test with robot framework inside docker and save output into host

docker robotframework

Just run a container using:

docker run --name mytests -v /path/to/file/testWithRobot/robottest.robot:/test/robottest.robot dc3dccfee60 robot test/robottest.robot

and grab the contents using the name we set:

docker cp mytests:/output.xml .docker cp mytests:/log.html .docker cp mytests:/report.html .

Then you can delete the stopped container with:

docker rm mytest

Also, using this approach you won't face file permission and ownership issues.
