I'm new to automation and I've been doing some training on PyCharm.

I have just separated out my script into a resource file to clean it up as per the Udemy course I am using. When I try and run the script however I get the following error message:

No keyword with name 'Common.Start Test' found.

This keyword is 100% in my Common Resource file and the directory path and naming is all correct as PyCharm is auto-correcting these fields when typing them and hovering over them shows them to be correct?! What is wrong with it, why won't it find the keywords?

Script

Resource    /Resources/Common.Robot

  • PyCharm is mostly an IDE for Python. If I remember correctly from a year or so ago, you have to use additional plugins in your PyCharm o be able to work in RF. If this is still true, what plugin do you use? Is it set up correctly? When you put keywords in one file with your test case, is it recognised or not? What is your project dir structure? If you have e.g. Tests/ and then Keywords/ and you run your tests, you have to do Resources ../Keywords/comon_resource_file.
