Failed when keyword conflicts in two files about robotframework-pageobjectlibrary HOT 3 OPEN

The problem is that you have not provided an implementation for the method _is_current_page. The default implementation assumes there is a class attribute named PAGE_TITLE. You haven't defined that variable, and there's a bug in the default implementation of _is_current_page that throws this error when it can't find the expected page title.

The simple solution is to add a definition for PAGE_TITLE to your class definition:

class LoginPage(PageObject):
    PAGE_TITLE = "The Internet"
    ...

This is both a bug in the definition of the PageObject class, but also in my documentation. Thanks for reporting the issue.

@automationTestStudent - have you tried specifying the namespace for each of the methods/keywords you're trying to use? In other words:

Valid Login
    [Setup]     Go to page      LoginPage
    Enter Username              tomsmith
    Enter password              SuperSecretPassword!
    LoginPage.new_keyword
    Click the login button
    The current page should be  SecureAreaPage
    SecureAreaPage.new_keyword
    sleep 5

My advice is to use a different keyword name for each of these page objects. If you need a method that is universal, see Bryan's article on Mixins.

@GLMeece it's perfectly fine (and, arguably, very common) to have the same keyword in multiple page objects. While you are correct that using a fully qualified keyword name can work, the page object library was designed so that you shouldn't need to do that.
