The index of the elements mostly start with 0. NoSuchElementException thrown if there is no ... Read More
We can select a radio in a page in Selenium with the help of click() method. First of all we need to uniquely identify the checkbox with the help of any of the locators like css, xpath, id, class and so on.Next we have to use findElement() method to locate the element and finally perform the clicking action. The exception will be thrown if there is no matching element found on the page.Syntaxdriver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@name='radio-button']")ExampleCode Implementation for radio button selection.from selenium import webdriver #browser exposes an executable file #Through Selenium test we will invoke the executable file which will then #invoke actual ...

There are multiple methods available for handling static dropdowns in a page in Selenium. The static dropdowns are an integral part of a web page. This type of UI elements are mostly developed for birthday or age selection on a page.A dropdown is not an element alone. It is a group of elements. For example for selection of birth date, we have multiple options to be selected for day, month and the year. Thus the approach is to first get the primary element and then move to its sub elements for selection.Select class is provided by the Selenium API which ... Read More
We can count the total number of radio buttons in a page in Selenium with the help of find_elements method. While working on any radio buttons, we will always find an attribute type in the html code and its value should be radio.This characteristic is only applicable to radio buttons on that particular page and to no other types of UI elements like edit box, link and so on.To retrieve all the elements with attribute type = 'radio', we will use find_elements_by_xpath() method. This method returns a list of web elements with the type of xpath specified in the method ... Read More

We can enter text on any field in Selenium. After entering the text, we may need to remove or clear the text we entered in that field. This interaction with the web elements can be achieved with the help of clear() method.Thus a clear() method is used to clear or reset an input field belonging to a form/ edit box. It replaces the text content on that particular element of the page.Syntaxdriver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[class ='gsc-search']").clear()ExampleCode Implementation with clear() method.from selenium import webdriver #browser exposes an executable file #Through Selenium test we will invoke the executable file which will then #invoke actual browser ...

While working on an application and navigating to different pages or different sections of a page, we need to click on various UI elements on a page like a link or a button. All these are performed with the help of click() method.Thus a click() method typically works with elements like buttons and links.Syntax driver.find_element_by_xpath("//button[id ='value']").click()ExampleCoding Implementation with click() method for clicking a link.from selenium import webdriver #browser exposes an executable file #Through Selenium test we will invoke the executable file which will then #invoke #actual browser driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path="C:\chromedriver.exe") # to maximize the browser window driver.maximize_window() #get method to launch ...
