I need to test the Load More button using Do-While Loop in Robot Framework using Selenium. I don't know the syntax of do-while so I used a common syntax in the following code.

My Sample Code Logic

do {

    Run Keyword If    Run Keyword And Return Status    Element Should Be Visible   ${PO_FieldLabel}) == FALSE     FAIL Item not loaded Properly

} while (Run Keyword And Return Status    Element Should Be Visible   ${PO_LoadMore_Btn})

My logic is to loop the iteration till the Load More Button ${PO_LoadMore_Btn} is exist. If exist, check the Name Field ${PO_FieldLabel} is exist. Once the Name Field ${PO_FieldLabel} is NOT EXIST, FAIL the test case and skip the loop.

In Robot Framework, there is NO WHILE LOOP, DO-WHILE LOOP. It has only FOR LOOP We can perform the DO-WHILE LOOP using FOR LOOP

Kindly look the following code

:FOR    ${i}    IN RANGE    999999
/
/     YOUR LOGIC
/
/    Exit For Loop If    {bool expression}

In Robot Framework looping is done using the :FOR loop construction. The Robot Framework userguide section on Loops has more information on the types of loops you can construct and the input they require.

While loops have been added to RobotFramework 5.0

This allows you to build a DO-While structure with in infinite While loop you conditionally break.

WHILE    True
    
    # Body of your Do-While loop here
    
    IF    ${some_condition}
        BREAK
    END
END
