Hi Nived,

Could you try with Open Available Browser instead?

*** Keywords ***
Open Browser for robertsspaceindustries
   Open Available Browser  https://robertsspaceindustries.com/
   
*** Tasks ***
Open Application
   Open Browser for robertsspaceindustries

Hi jeevith

Sure thanks for your reply

But I am thinking there is some technical issue I think so

@Nived_Nambiar error comes from missing driver for Firefox, as it shown in the error log geckodriver executable needs to be in PATH.

The Open Browser keywords expects that user will manage webdrivers themselves (it comes from upstream SeleniumLibrary package).

We have implemented Open Available Browser keyword which will automatically manage webdrivers so that user does not need to. So I will recommend using this keyword
