Fixed structural issues in resources/keywords.robot that prevented proper test execution, and added comprehensive test authoring documentation.

Fixes in resources/keywords.robot

  • Removed duplicate *** Keywords *** header - Only one keywords section per file is valid
  • Added missing imports - JSONLibrary for data-driven tests and GitHubPage.robot for page keywords

Before:

*** Settings ***
Library    SeleniumLibrary
Resource   locators.robot

*** Keywords ***
Perform Login To GitHub
    ...

*** Keywords ***  # ← Duplicate section caused syntax error
Run Login Test
    Go To GitHub Home Page  # ← Missing import

After:

*** Settings ***
Library    SeleniumLibrary
Library    JSONLibrary
Resource   locators.robot
Resource   ../pages/GitHubPage.robot

*** Keywords ***
Perform Login To GitHub
    ...

Run Login Test
    Go To GitHub Home Page

New Documentation: WRITING_TESTS.md

Comprehensive guide covering:

  • Page Object Model architecture and project structure
  • Step-by-step test creation workflow
  • Best practices (naming, imports, teardowns, avoiding duplicates)
  • Common patterns (data-driven testing, wait keywords, browser management)
  • Troubleshooting reference for typical issues
  • Quick reference tables for keywords and locators

Updated README.md to link to the new guide.

Original prompt

fix some of the tests and add a short guide of how to write tests
