We can get the source of an image in Selenium. An image in an html document has tagname. Each image also has an attribute src which contains the source of image in the page.To fetch any attribute in Selenium, we have to use the getAttribute() method. The method takes the attribute name as a parameter. So to get the src attribute, we have to write getAttribute("src").ExampleCode Implementation.import org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement; import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver; import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit; public class Imagesrc{    public static void main(String[] args) {       System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\Users\ghs6kor\Desktop\Java\chromedriver.exe");       WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(); ...

We can handle frames in Selenium webdriver. A frame is identified with tag in the html document. A frame is used to insert an HTML document inside another HTML document.To work with frames, we should first understand switching between frames and identify the frame to which we want to move. There are multiple ways to switch to frames −switchTo().frame(n) - The index of frame is passed as an argument to switch to. The frame index starts from 0.Syntax −driver.switchTo().frame(1), we shall switch to the frame with index 1.switchTo().frame(name) - The frame id or name is passed as an argument ... Read More

We can check if some text exists or not in a page with Selenium. There are more than one ways to find it. We can use the getPageSource() method to fetch the full page source and then verify if the text exists there. This method returns content in the form of string.We can also check if some text exists with the help of findElements method with xpath locator. Then we shall use the text() function to create a customized xpath. The findElements() method returns a list of elements. We shall use the size() method to verify if list size is ... Read More

We can extract text of an element with a selenium webdriver. This is done with the help of a text method. It fetches the text in an element which can be later validated.First we need to identify the element with the help of any locators. Suppose we want to get the text of an element in below page.ExampleCode Implementation.from selenium import webdriver driver = webdriver.Chrome (executable_path="C:\chromedriver.exe") # maximize with maximize_window() driver.maximize_window() driver.get("https://www.tutorialspoint.com/index.htm") # identify element l=driver.find_element_by_css_selector("h4") # get text and print print("Text is: " + l.text) driver.close()OutputRead More

We can obtain the URL of the current page with Selenium webdriver. This is achieved with the help of getCurrentUrl() method. It fetches the URL of the opened application. This method accepts no parameters and strings the URL in the form of String.Syntax −String strUrl = driver.getCurrentUrl();ExampleCode Implementation.import org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement; import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver; import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit; public class CurrentUrl{    public static void main(String[] args) {       System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\Users\ghs6kor\Desktop\Java\chromedriver.exe");       WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();       String url = "https://www.tutorialspoint.com/index.htm";       driver.get(url);       driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS);       // ...

We can upload files to the browser with the help of Selenium webdriver. This is done with the help of sendKeys() method on the element which does the selection of the file by specifying the path of the file to be uploaded.While working on file upload functionality, we need to click on the Browse button. This is taken care of by webdriver for elements with attribute type having value as file. Also, the path of the file to be uploaded should be correct.ExampleCode Implementation.import org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement; import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver; import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit; public class FileUpld{    public static void ...

We can maximize windows on Chrome with a webdriver. While working on any automated test cases, if the browser opens in maximized mode then the probability of the scripts getting failed lessens.This is because if the element is visible, then the chances of its interaction increases. Also, if the window is maximized, then the testers or developers working on them gets a better visibility of the test steps.Some of the applications open in maximized mode automatically. Applying maximizing techniques on them does not have any impact on them. Let us see the methods with which we can maximize window in ... Read More

We can select the checkbox with Selenium. In an html document, each checkbox has an attribute type set to a value as checkbox. In order to select a checkbox, we shall first identify a checkbox with any locator and then apply the click() method to it.ExampleCode Implementation.import org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement; import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver; import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit; public class CheckBoxSelect{    public static void main(String[] args) {       System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\Users\ghs6kor\Desktop\Java\chromedriver.exe");       WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();       String url ="https://www.tutorialspoint.com/selenium/selenium_automation_practice.htm";       driver.get(url);       driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS);       // identify element ...

Selenium can switch to new windows when there are multiple windows opened. There may be scenarios when filling a date field in a form opens to a new window or clicking a link, button or an advertisement opens a new tab.Selenium uses the current_window_handle and window_handles methods to work with new windows. The window_handles method contains all the window handle ids of the opened windows. The window id handles are held in the form of Set data structure [containing data type as String].The current_window_handle method is used to store the window handle id of the present active window. Finally to ... Read More

The right click is performed on any element on the web page to display its context menu. For example, if we right click on an edit box, a new menu with multiple options gets displayed.Selenium uses the Actions class to perform the right click action. The contextClick() is a method under Actions class to do the right click and once the menu opens, we can select an option from them via automation.First we need to move the mouse to the middle of the element with moveToElement() method, then do the right click. Next with build() method we shall carry out ... Read More
