I need to use requests module in my python script to scraping HTML data with XPath. I am getting ModuleNotFound error when import requests module.

 

Could anyone please tell me how to add python module in test complete?

    You should put your external libraries in python lib in testcomplete 

    eg 

    C:\Program Files (x86)\SmartBear\TestComplete 12\Bin\Extensions\Python\Python36\Lib

    If you have other python installations in your machine, just installing (eg via pip command) will not effect to python inside test complete.

      Documentation linked further up as well as explanation of where you need to put your "requests" module for TestComplete to be able to read it.
