In a robot framework, I have a test suite like this:
test-suite/
├── Common.robot
├── TestCaseA.robot
└── TestCaseB.robot
The file Common.robot defines some keywords which will used by both TestCaseA.robot and TestCaseB.robot. In other languages Common.robot would be called a library, but trying to import it like this
*** Settings ***
Library Commons
or like that
*** Settings ***
Library Commons.robot
results in an error.
[ ERROR ] Error in file '[...]/TestCaseA.robot': Importing test library 'Commons' failed: ImportError: No module named Commons
The keyword Library seems to work only for low level test libraries. I am sure there has to be another way. How can user-defined libraries be included in robot framework?

Library Keywords are keywords that come from the library we import in Robot Framework. We will now take a look at the Selenium library, which helps us interact with the browser.
END Use Run Keyword If in Robot Framework Run Keyword If ${True} Log This line IS executed. Run Keyword If ${False} Log This line is NOT executed. Use Run Keyword Unless in Robot Framework Run Keyword Unless ${True} Log This line is NOT executed. Run Keyword Unless ${False} Log This line IS executed.
yml` extension is new in Robot Framework 3.2. YAML variable files can be used exactly like normal variable files from the command line using :option:`--variablefile` option, in the Settings section using :setting:`Variables` setting, and dynamically using the :name:`Import Variables` keyword.
Choose File id:file-upload /Users/alapan/PycharmProjects/Robot-Framework/Resources/Upload/sunset. jpg – Choose File inputs the file path into the file input field locator. Here we are providing the absolute path of the image. > Clicks Element id:file-submit – Clicks the upload button.
If Common.robot is a plain text file or tab separated file having robot framework keywords, it should be imported in the Settings table. In robot framework, files with shared keywords are called resource files.
*** Settings ***
Resource Common.robot
However, if it is a python file having shared keywords, it should be resourced as a library as
*** Settings ***
Library Common.py
Note that in both cases the full filename has to be specified.
