Hi Milind,

I don’t have personal experience here but hopefully I can point you in the right direction.

There is documentation for [Creating test libraries](http://robotframework.org/robotframework/latest/RobotFrameworkUserGuide.html#toc-entry-534), also there’s the [Remote library interface](http://robotframework.org/robotframework/latest/RobotFrameworkUserGuide.html#toc-entry-535), not sure which is best in your case.

There are some libraries I know of such as [SeleniumLibrary](https://github.com/robotframework/SeleniumLibrary/) and [SikuliLibrary](https://github.com/rainmanwy/robotframework-SikuliLibrary#readme) that operate in cpython version of robot framework (as opposed to the jpyton version that’s no longer supported), both Selenium and SikuliX are Java applications so peeking into the code of those libraries might also help.

Hopefully this is helpful,

Dave.
