Selenium webdriver is capable of handling SSL certificate in the Safari browser. This is done with the help of the DesiredCapabilities class. We shall create an object of this class. Then apply the setCapability method on it and set the value of property CapabilityType.ACCEPT_SSL_CERTS to true.The SSL is a protocol developed to have a secure connection between the server and the client browser. It verifies the website authenticity before any further communication with it.SyntaxDesiredCapabilities pc = DesiredCapabilities.safari(); pc.setCapability(CapabilityType.ACCEPT_SSL_CERTS, true);Exampleimport org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement; import org.openqa.selenium.safari.SafariDriver; import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit; import org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities; public class SSLErrorSafari{    public static void main(String[] args) { ...

We can select a date from a datepicker with Selenium webdriver using Python. To identify a particular date, first we have to use the find_elements method and identify all the dates having a common locator value.The find_elements returns a list of matching elements. We have to iterate through this list and search for the date which meets our criteria. Once we get that date, we would select it. Then break out from this iteration.Examplefrom selenium import webdriver #set chromodriver.exe path driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path="C:\chromedriver.exe") driver.implicitly_wait(0.5) #launch URL driver.get("https://jqueryui.com/datepicker/") #switch to frame l = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//iframe[@class='demo-frame']") driver.switch_to.frame(l); #identify element inside frame d= driver.find_element_by_id("datepicker") ...
