I run robot, sometimes in Linux and sometimes in Windows. Is there a simple way to identify on which OS robot runs, so it could apply different behavior?

  • You could write keywords around platform library that return platform name: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1854/python-what-os-am-i-running-on – Pekka Jun 27 '16 at 09:31

You can use the Evaluate keyword to return python's platform information. 

*** Test Cases ***
Example
    ${system}=    Evaluate    platform.system()    platform
    log to console    \nI am running on ${system}

For more information about asking python about what system it is running on, see this question: Python: What OS am I running on?
