I am using robot framework. How can I test if a checkbox is selected? I want to run a keyword if a checkbox is selected like:

 ${checked} =   Checkbox Should Not Be Selected  xpath=.//*[@id='0,1,1,6']/td[11]/input
    Run Keyword if  '${checked}'  Click Element  xpath=.//*[@id='0,1,1,6']/td[11]/input  and wait

i.e. to click there if is not already clicked.

(The code of above is wrong, I know)

From: http://rtomac.github.com/robotframework-selenium2library/doc/Selenium2Library.html

Keyword: Checkbox Should Be Selected

Arguments: locator

Documentation: Verifies checkbox identified by locator is selected/checked. Key attributes for checkboxes are id and name. See introduction for details about locating elements.

Thanks for answering. As you can see I am using "Checkbox should be selected" in my code (in fact I am using the negation). This command works like an assertion and not a question. When the assertion fails the test stops. I want to ask if the checkbox is checked and not to assert that the checkbox should be checked. – Luixv Feb 24 at 7:24
