Robotframework+eclispe environment installation

Environment installation is the first step in learning anything new , This step is not comfortable , Then I'm not in the mood to go down .

Quote a famous sentence ： If a worker wants to do a good job, he must sharpen his tools first ！！

Robotframework： a   Automated testing framework .

Eclipse： An editing tool . Can edit python Code 、java Code etc. .

Environment installation is divided into four steps ：

　　1、python Environmental Science    

       2、 install RobotFramework;

       3、JDK1.8 + Eclipse install + RED plug-in unit ;

       4、 To configure eclipse
