How to do some infinite task with Robot Framework?

问题

I need to "enable and disable the firewall" continuously using robot framework.

I have written following robot testcase for this purpose:

testcase1
    Open Connection                         1.1.1.1
    Login                                   test    test
    Write                                   firewall enable
    Write                                   commit
    Write                                   firewall disable
    Write                                   commit  

The above testcase doing the task as expected but only one time. But I want to do this continuously (infinite).

Any clue please? Thanks in advance for your help.

回答1:

You could put it inside a for loop. It is not infinite but if you put large enough value it is close enough for practical purposes. This will create a huge log file.

testcase1
    :FOR    ${index}    IN RANGE    999999
    \    Open Connection    ${TEST}
    \    Rest of code
