ImportError: No module named absl.testing

Question

I’ve been trying to run the Object detection API, at the point to test if the instalation worked:

python object_detection/builders/model_builder_test.py

I got the following error:

    File "object_detection/builders/model_builder_test.py", line 18, in <module>
    from absl.testing import parameterized
ImportError: No module named absl.testing

I couldn’t find a solution anywhere. Already tried pip install absl-py and pip3 install absl-py but without success.
Hope you could help me.

Answer 1

Got it working by using python3 object_detection/builders/model_builder_test.py
instead of python object_detection/builders/model_builder_test.py. I forgot that I was using TF for python3.

First install absl-py by running command if you are using tensorflow
with python3

sudo pip3 install absl-py

otherwise

sudo pip install absl-py
After that run

python3 object_detection/builders/model_builder_test.py

Cheers, You done it !!
