Parsing of multiple XML files in the same directory

Question

I want to read different XML files to do the parsing later. My code is below, but I got following exception:

IsADirectoryError: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '.ipynb_checkpoints'

This is my code:

from os import listdir
for file in listdir():
    print(file)
    xmlTree = parse(file)
    elemList = []

How can I fix this error?

I post the answer if someone else got my error.

for filename in os.listdir(path):
    if not filename.endswith('.xml'): continue
    fullname = os.path.join(path, filename)
    xmlTree = parse(filename)
