Here‘s the content of the "SimpleTest.txt"

打开 Ride, 看到的如下：

所以你一定问， 这种浅蓝色的 low level keyword 到底是在哪里定义的？

比如 Start Selenium Server:

其实来源于：

*** Settings ***
Library       Selenium Library

RIDE UI 上是：

可只是一句 "Library Selenium Library" 就可以了么？到底 Selenium Library 在哪里？

很简单： C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages

打开 __init__.py, 能够看到如下：

    def start_selenium_server(self, *params):
        """Starts the Selenium Server provided with SeleniumLibrary.

        `params` can contain additional command line options given to the
        Selenium Server. This keyword uses some command line options
        automatically:

        1) The port given in `importing` is added to `params` automatically
        using the `-port` option.

        2) A custom Firefox profile that is included with the library
        and contains automation friendly settings is enabled via the
        `-firefoxProfileTemplate` option. You can override this
        profile with your own custom profile by using the same argument
        in `params` yourself. To use the default profile on your machine,
        use this argument with `DEFAULT` value (case-sensitive).

        3) Starting from SeleniumLibrary 2.6, if there is `user-extensions.js`
        file in the same directory as Selenium Server jar, it is loaded using
        the `-userExtensions` option.  This is not done if the option is
        defined in `params`.  By default, such extension file providing Flex
        testing support is loaded automatically.

        Special syntax `JVM=some jvm opts` can be used to define options to
        the java command itself used to start the selenium server. This
        possibility was added in SeleniumLibrary 2.9.1.

        Examples:
        | Start Selenium Server | | | # Default settings. Uses the Firefox profile supplied with the library. |
        | Start Selenium Server | -firefoxProfileTemplate | C:\\\\the\\\\path | # Uses custom Firefox profile. |
        | Start Selenium Server | -firefoxProfileTemplate | DEFAULT | # Uses default Firefox profile on your machine. |
        | Start Selenium Server | -avoidProxy | -ensureCleanSession | # Uses various Selenium Server settings. |
        | Start Selenium Server | -JVM=-DserverName=somehost | # Define JVM options. |

        All Selenium Server output is written into `selenium_server_log.txt`
        file in the same directory as the Robot Framework log file.

        If the test execution round starts and stops Selenium Server multiple
        times, it is best to open the server to different port each time.

        *NOTE:* This keyword requires `subprocess` module which is available
        on Python/Jython 2.5 or newer.
        """
        params = (‘-port‘, str(self._server_port)) + params
        logpath = os.path.join(self._get_log_dir(), ‘selenium_server_log.txt‘)
        self._selenium_log = open(logpath, ‘w‘)
        start_selenium_server(self._selenium_log, self._jar_path, *params)
        self._html(‘Selenium server log is written to <a href="file://%s">%s</a>.‘
                   % (logpath.replace(‘\\‘, ‘/‘), logpath))

这就是 start selenium server 的最源头。

我们也可以把整个 C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\SeleniumLibrary 文件夹复制一份并且重命名为 "AllenLibrary", 然后打开  __init__.py， 把其中所有的 "SeleniumLibrary" 替换成 "AllenLibrary".

这时就可以直接使用 AllenLibrary了。

看，上面就是 Allen Library 的情况。

我们可以使用多个 library。

*** Settings ***
Library           Selenium Library
Library           Allen Library

*** Test Cases ***
testcase1
    AllenLibrary.Start Selenium Server
    AllenLibrary.Set Selenium Timeout    10
    SeleniumLibrary.Open Browser    file:///D:/robot/Login.htm    ie
    Sleep    3
    SeleniumLibrary.Input Allentext    uname    AUser
    SeleniumLibrary.Input Text    pwd    TestPass
    Comment    AllenLibrary.Input Allen2text    uname    BUser
    sleep    3
    AllenLibrary.Click Button    login
    AllenLibrary.Page Should Contain    AUser
    AllenLibrary.Close Browser
    AllenLibrary.Stop Selenium Server

只是之后使用的时候要表明清楚所用的方法是从 AllenLibrary来的，还是从 SeleniumLibrary来的。
