Running a program using os.system in Python

I am trying to run Test.py using os.system(path) where I specify the path of the file but I am getting an error. Basically, I want to run Test.py from here and display the output.

import os

os.system(rf"C:\\Users\\USER\\OneDrive-Technion\\Research_Technion\\Python_PNM\\Sept15_2022\\220\\1\\Test.py")

The error is

The system cannot find the path specified.

you are passing a python file, not an executable. You can pass python yourfile.py.

By the way, I would reconsider what you are doing, executing a python script from another python script is quite strange.
