Robot Framework - TypeError: relativedelta only diffs datetime/date

I get the TypeError: relativedelta only diffs datetime/date after execute code

This is my robot code:

Test calculate age
[Tags]   Test
${cal}      AgeTest   1988, 10, 1

This is my python code:

from datetime import date
from dateutil.relativedelta import relativedelta

def AgeTest(dob):
age = relativedelta(date.today(), dob)
print (age)
return age.years, age.months, age.days

How to fix it.

The datatype of dob you're passing is String but in python is need tuple So you need to convert your string to tuplefirst, Just Change following below

def AgeTest(dob):
    dobnew = tuple(map(int, dob.split(',')))
    age = relativedelta(date.today(), date(*dobnew))
    return age.years, age.months, age.days

I haven't worked with Robot Framework, but it looks to me as it did not recognize your input as a proper date; looking at docs, possibly formatting it as 1988-10-1 could help. On the other hand, if dob is a tuple, you could make it to a date object easily:

age = relativedelta(date.today(), date(*dob))
