You attach it to your test execution via command-line arguments and control retry behavior either globally (by passing a retry count to the listener) or per-test (by tagging individual tests with `test:retry(N)` or `task:retry(N)` to specify how many times they should be retried on failure).\n\nThe package is minimal and focused: it depends only on robotframework itself and requires Python 3.8 or later. It is useful for handling flaky tests in continuous integration or local test runs without modifying test code. However, the package has not been updated since its initial release in October 2022, so you should verify compatibility with your current Robot Framework version before adopting it.","worth_installing":"Yes, if your Robot Framework version is compatible and you need automatic retry logic without modifying test code. The low install friction and permissive license make it a low-risk addition. However, the lack of updates since October 2022 is a concern\u2014verify that it works with your current Robot Framework version before committing to it in production."},"id":"robotframework-retryfailed","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/robotframework-retryfailed","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/robotframework-retryfailed.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/robotframework-retryfailed/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2022-10-09","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"robotframework-retryfailed","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A listener to automatically retry tests or tasks based on flags."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":483414,"position":6413,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.2.0"}
