How to print variables values in Robotframework log

Question

I have a RF test and I need to print the variables values, not the name. I am trying with "log to console Num: ${Num}" but log.html only shows:

**KEYWORD** BuiltIn . Log To Console Num:, ${Num}
Documentation:  
Logs the given message to the console.
Start / End / Elapsed:  20170209 12:14:05.273 / 20170209 12:14:05.273 / 00:00:00.000

I already tried to setting log level (TRACE, DEBUG) but didn't work. I appreciate some help, thanks.

I think, you have didn't give tab space between `Log To Console` and `${Num}` give that try — Sarada Akurathi, Feb 10 '17 at 06:03

Adding `console=yes` will ensure it is visible on the console. – Surreal Dreams Dec 31 '19 at 16:59

In case anyone still looking for how to print to console, simply use:

Log To Console Hello World

or

Log To Console ${Variable}

As of robotframework 5.0.1 the command is now:

Log  "Num value is ${Num}"  console=True

See http://robotframework.org/robotframework/latest/libraries/BuiltIn.html#Log
