I want a Robot Framework report XML in JUnit format.

Is there a way to produce a JUnit XML from the Robot run itself, or do I need to convert the Robot XML to follow the format of JUnit?

I'm running the Robot script on Python. Apparently the JUnit XML report is only possible if I use Java.

Thanks.

Yes, during the execution or even afterwards, by converting RF's native output.xml to xunit format - the latter is through the built-in tool rebot:

reboot -x xunitOut.xml output.xml

The switch -x /--xunit (link to the guide) can be used both during run, or in post processing.

I don't think that's the case, it's just a format of the execution report xml :)
Keep in mind the xUnit looses some of the meta info that's available in the native format - due to their different nature.
