Unable to startup test. Unknown tests gets called for Robot Framework Test Execution

Question

I'm surprised to see this error message when executing Test Automation using RobotFramework with RED editor. Plz guide me on this issue getting rectified.

I dont have any test case called "Filter the customer". When running my suite it shows up the below error.

Note: I did the below, even then I'm having this issue. 1. I cleaned the Project 2. I also deleted and re-added the modified libraries. 3. Saved all the updated files.

Error:

The source is as below,

*** Setting ***

In the source file, I re-placed the test case name "Begin the New Assessment for an opportunity" by "filter the customers" as because earlier i named this testcase like this, executing it showing up below issue now, Is this RED editor issue?

Answer 1

Looking at the error it seems to me that you don't have the Selenium2Library loaded Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.openqa.selenium.WebElement You can load a library by using the syntax:

*** Settings ***
Library    Selenium2Library

Please keep in mind that this library requires either a pip install robotframework-selenium2library or to install the Java Port of the Selenium2Library

Although I can't be sure, I suspect that when this issue is resolved your other problem is also fixed.
