I gave up and I started using Selenium for Firefox. It requires a .xml file where you mention actions. And I generated this xml file from python script and ran the whole thing with selenium.

Sorry for the delay on this! I just added some examples to the README on this, which I'm including here too.

from robobrowser import RoboBrowser

# Browse to a page with checkbox inputs
browser = RoboBrowser()
browser.open('http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_forms.asp')

# Find the form
form = browser.get_forms()[3]
form                            # <RoboForm vehicle=[]>
form['vehicle']                 # <robobrowser.forms.fields.Checkbox...>

# Checked values can be get and set like lists
form['vehicle'].options         # [u'Bike', u'Car']
form['vehicle'].value           # []
form['vehicle'].value = ['Bike']
form['vehicle'].value = ['Bike', 'Car']

# Values can also be set using input labels
form['vehicle'].labels          # [u'I have a bike', u'I have a car \r\n']
form['vehicle'].value = ['I have a bike']
form['vehicle'].value           # [u'Bike']
