Hi,

I’m currently evaluating RobotCode as a replacement for the old Robocorp Robot Framework Language Server extension
, which doesn’t seem to work properly with the latest Robot Framework versions.

Here’s my environment:
VS Code Version: code-server v4.105.1
RobotCode Version: 2.0.1
OS: Ubuntu 24.04
Python Version: 3.12.3
Robot Framework Version: 7.3.2
Additional tools:
robotframework-pythonlibcore 4.4.1
robotframework-seleniumlibrary 6.8.0

I’m facing two issues:
1. Runtime listener / live execution tracking

Previously, with the Robocorp Robot Framework LSP extension, I had the ability to track the execution progress of Robot Framework tests in real time — there was an extra tab next to “Output / Terminal / Debug Console” showing live updates while the tests were running.

In that setup, I noticed the following listeners were automatically added on execution:

--listener=robotframework_debug_adapter.events_listener.EventsListenerV2
--listener=robotframework_debug_adapter.events_listener.EventsListenerV3

I’m not exactly sure which one was responsible, but it allowed me to follow test execution in real time.

👉 My question:
Is there a similar runtime listener / live run tracking feature available in RobotCode, or could this be achieved through any plugin or extension?

2. Browser output in code-server environment

I’m running a remote development environment using code-server inside a Docker image on Kubernetes (OpenShift).
RobotCode itself works fine, but when trying to open rendered results (e.g., the log.html or report.html), none of the “Simple Browser” or built-in preview options seem to work.

The “Simple Browser” tab appears, but stays empty.
The other two preview options (externalhttp/externalfile) don’t open anything at all.

👉 Do you have any idea what could be causing this, or any recommended workaround to view Robot Framework reports within a code-server setup?

Thanks in advance for your help — I really appreciate the work you’re doing with RobotCode!

Best regards,
Laci
