Selenium2Library is not detecting in Robot framework

[Manikandan G]

Hi All,

         We are planning to automate web browser testing using Robot framework with Selenium . For that we have installed in  windows with the following  versions.

1. Python 2.7 (python-2.7.14) – 32 bit – Windows .
2. Set environment variables for the Python version 2.7 (System variables - > PYTHONPATH, PATH)
3. Wx python (wxPython2.8-win32-unicode-2.8.12.1-py27) – 32 bit – Windows
4. Robot framework (robotframework-2.8.6.win32) – 32 bit – Windows
5. RIDE framework (robotframework-ride-1.3.win32) – 32 bit – Windows

    The RIDE is running perfectly. I have installed "Selenium2Library" , But when I import its not at all detecting . Always showing in "RED" . Verified from command line also.There is no error for Selenium2Library. Its showing the version properly. 

      Even tried with "SeleniumLibrary" (installed ) too. Same error. 

The installation logs below:

Could you please help to resolve the "Selenium2Library" import error.

Thanks in Advance,

Ugh

You could try to see is this a problem with RIDE or with something else first. Most likely the easiest way to do that is to write a simple test case that open and closes the browser. If the test works fine when running from command line, then the problem is with RIDE and not with Robot Framework and Selenium2Library/SeleniumLibrary.

Please also note that Selenium2Library has been deprecated (Starting from the 3.0 release and Selenium2Library serves a project to ease the migration to the SeleniumLibrary) and all new development is done in the SeleniumLibrary project.

Hi Tatu,

            Thanks for your reply. 

             I have tried to execute simple web page opens by running from command line. But am getting there is no keyword with name error.

Ugh

That usually means that your library import is not done correctly or there is a error in the installation. Could you share a simple example which demonstrates the problem and tell how you launch the test from the command line?
