unable to add Selenium2Library in RIDE

[GAURAV DEORE]

Hello,

As I am using RobotFramework 2.7.4 & RIDE version 0.51. As I wanted
to use Selenium2Library instead of SeleniumLibrary so I installed
Selenium2Library and tried to used it in RIDE but its not accepting
it, showing its in RED color.
Even as I tried to see search it from from Search keyword, no keywords
are getting there related to Selenium2Library. So please help me to
know where I am incorrect to access Selenium2Library keywords.

Thanks a lot !

Did you take Selenium2Library into use in your test data? RIDE doesn't
know about libraries installed into your system otherwise. If that
doesn't work, you can take a look does at RIDE's log (Tools > View
RIDE Log) contain anything suspicious.

Based on the above error message you are running your tests on Jython.
RIDE runs on Python and it being able to import a library does not
mean that Jython can.

In your case the bigger problem is that Selenium 2 itself, and thus
also Selenium2Library, require Python interpreter version 2.6 or 2.7,
and there is only Jython 2.5 available. Some people have tested that
the available Jython 2.7 betas work both with Robot Framework and
Selenium2Library, though.

Hi,

Yes, ur right its showing error details as its Fail to import
Selenium2Library in RIDE.

Below is the error details I took from Tools> View RIDElog ----------->

Hi,

Selenium2Library installation documentation says that decorator module needs to be installed separately.

https://github.com/rtomac/robotframework-selenium2library/blob/master/INSTALL.rst

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/decorator/

Hope this helps!

I am running using a custom script that in turn is using robot framework Jar.

The reason I need to run with robot framework Jar is to integrate with sikuli.

 

When I user the execution profile: pybot - everything is fine (except of course that I cannot include/import my sikuli library)...

 

Is there anyway to make selenium and Selenium2Library availble when I run with robot framework jar file?

[GAURAV DEORE]

Hi Mikko,

I did it as u explained with help of mentioned URL but still
Selenium2Library is not accessible. When I went to the Python prompt &
text import Selenium2Library. Its showing message at the end like -

From Selenium import Webdriver
ImportError:No Module name Selenium

So to solve this What should I do? Shall I add Selenium.py from
SeleniumLIbrary or Do need to add any other selenium module?

Even I mentioned Path C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages in Environment
variable. - Is it necessary to mentioned it?

Please Clear me to go ahead to use of Selenium2Library.

Thanks,
Gaurav Deore

[Tatu aalto]

Ugh

Based on the error you have not installed all the dependencies of the selenium2library. Use the url provided by Mikko and install all the dependecies.

The easiest way to install python packages, in Windows at least, is to use pip.

[GAURAV DEORE]

I have install all required, right now unable to install Selenium
2.8.1. Pleas guide on this only. Is need to set path & then install
it? By pip its not installing on windows 7.

Thanks,
Gaurav

[GAURAV DEORE]

Thanks Jackie!

I have installed all pre-requisites setups for robor Framework
Selenium2Library. but now as I went to Python Commond prompt to check
whether Selenium2Library is accessible. so run import Selenium2Library
& ots showing "cannot import name Select "

For details plz see attachement.

Thanks,
Gaurav

[Kevin O.]

Sounds like something went wrong during the installation of Selenium.  Did you install distribute first? (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/distribute).

Feel free to delete the <Python folder>/Lib/site-packages/selenium folder and try again.

[Tatu Aalto]

Ugh

Pip works fine for me in Windows 7 and for many others. It must be noted
that pip might fail sometimes, when it fails to download required
packages. For me this has been quite frequently, but in the end (with
some re-tries), it manages to install all that I need. Can not say what
is the particular problem with pip in your case.

But back to you problem with Selenium2library. In the Selenium2library,
at file _selectelement.py, in line 2 is this:
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select. More problematic is
that, in the line 1 is this:
from selenium.webdriver.remote.webelement import WebElement

With my limited knowledge this implies that selenium installation was
not successful or was only partially successful. Could do the following
and send the hole output:
0) Run: CMD.EXE
1) Type: python --version
2) Type: python
You should see python prompt >>>
3) Type: from selenium.webdriver.remote.webelement import WebElement
4) Type: from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
5) Type: import selenium
6) Type: import Selenium2Library

[GAURAV DEORE]

Hi Tatu,

As per your given steps 

0) Run: CMD.EXE
1) Type: python --version
2) Type: python
You should see python prompt >>>
3) Type: from selenium.webdriver.remote.webelement import WebElement

4) Type: from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select ----------------------- Fail
5) Type: import selenium
6) Type: import Selenium2Library ------------------------ Fail

Please find the output as below:-

>>> from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

ImportError: cannot import name Select

>>> import selenium

>>> import Selenium2Library

Well, something went wrong with the selenium installation.

Follow the Kevin instructions to delete the selenium installation folder. Then try re-install the selenium again.

When done the installation, try the python commands, from my post, again. If errors appear send the full log. Full log means all output from installation and the python commands.

-Tatu

[GAURAV DEORE]

Hello Tatu/Kevin,

 AS per Kevin's guideline, 

1) I have removed the Selenium from location C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\selenium-2.8.1-py2.7.egg then

 2) Installed the "distribute-0.6.30" so get it at location  the C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\distribute-0.6.30-py2.7.egg ... Also in attachment initial log u can see for this.

3) Installed  Selenium 2.8.1  so get it at location  C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\selenium-2.8.1-py2.7.egg .. attachment has installation for this too.

4) then came on python prompt to check whether its proper or so entered -- import selenium - which is fine 

5) When I ran the "import Selenium2Library"  then it shows me ImportError : which is attached in log file. 

Please find the all installation log details as attachment.

Hope it gives you complete idea to find the problem.

Thanks,

Gaurav

I have wild ques, what might be wrong. Where did get the selenium version that you did install? I am asking this because, when I look the selenium download page, the latest version of Python selenium is 2.26.0 [1]. But based on your log, you are installing version 2.8.1. Although it seems to install selenium, I do not know what is it.

Please note that the Selenium2library is tested with selenium version 2.25.0, although it should be possible use also selenium version 2.26.0. But because of your problems, I would play on safe and install the selenium version 2.25.0 [2].

Could you download the selenium version 2.25.0 and install it and then see then how the python import goes.

Gaurav,

Tatu is correct in that your selenium version is fairly old, to old in fact for our recent changes. I've added an issue to our issue tracker [1]. I would also recommend that you use pip - http://www.pip-installer.org - to install selenium.

Yes Tatu and Ed. Its finally get installed.

Thanks a lot for this help.

You don't need to create new standalone robotframework.jar to test
does Selenium 2, and Selenium2Library, work on Jython 2.7. Just
install Selenium2Library on Jython 2.7 and see does it work. If I've
understood it correctly, pip works with Jython 2.7 so you probably
should start by getting it installed. Otherwise you need to install
all Selenium2Library dependencies manually.

That shouldn't be too complicated. I'll check the above thread and
comment more there.
