findElement() and findElements() method tries to search an element in DOM.The differences between them are listed below −sl.no.findElement()findElements()1It returns the first web element which matches with the locator.It returns all the web elements which match with the locator.2Syntax − WebElement button = webdriver.findElement(By.name(""));Syntax − List buttons = webdriver.findElements(By.name(""));3NoSuchElementException is thrown if there are no matching web elementsEmpty list is returned if there are no matching elements.ExampleUsing findElements ().import org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.Keys; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement; import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver; import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit; public class RowFindElements { public static void main(String[] args) { System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\Users\ghs6kor\Desktop\Java\chromedriver.exe"); WebDriver driver ...
Read MoreHow to identify the nth sub element using xpath?
We can identify the nth sub element using xpath in the following ways −By adding square brackets with index.By using position () method in xpath.Exampleimport org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.Keys; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement; import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver; import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit; public class SubElement { 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().window().maximize(); driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS); // xpath using position() targeting the first element with type text driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@type='text'][position()=1]")) ...
Read MoreAmong id, name, xpath and css, which locator should be used?
Each of the locators has some significance. If the page contains uniqueattribute values, we should use them first. However if there are no unique elements, we should use css selector as it is more effective in terms of speed.Css also has a drawback that we cannot traverse from child to parent node which means we cannot travel backward. But xpath allows this feature. Xpath is the most common locator in Selenium and performs traversal through DOM elements and attributes to identify an object.An xpath is represented by two ways namely ‘/ ‘and ‘// ‘. A forward single slash means absolute ...
Read MoreHow to identify elements based on text visible on page in Selenium?
To identify elements based on text visible on page, text() method is used in xpath.Syntax −driver.findElement(By.xpath("//tagname[text()=’value’]"))Exampleimport org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.Keys; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement; import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver; import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit; public class TextMatch { 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().window().maximize(); driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS); //xpath with text() method driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[text()=’GATE Exams’]")).click(); driver.close(); } }
Read MoreHow to identify the elements by partially comparing to its attributes in Selenium?
We can identify elements by partially comparing to its attributes in Selenium with the help of regular expression. In xpath, there is contains () method. It supports partial matching with the value of the attributes. This method comes as useful while dealing with elements having dynamic values in their attributes.Syntax driver.findElement(By.xpath("//tagname[contains(@attributes, ’value’)]"))In CSS, we can identify elements by partially comparing to its attributes by using regular expressions. There can be three scenarios −Using ^ to target attributes starting with a particular text.Syntax −driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("tagname[attribute^=’value’]"))Using $ to target attributes ending with a particular text.Syntax −driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("tagname[attribute$=’value’]"))Using * to target attributes containing a particular text.Syntax −driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("tagname[attribute*=’value’]"))Exampleimport org.openqa.selenium.By; ...
Read MoreWhat are the various locators that Selenium supports?
The various types of locators that Selenium support are listed below −ID − This attribute is unique for every element.Syntax − driver.findElement(By.id("")).Name − This attribute is not unique for every element.Syntax − driver.findElement(By.name("")).CSS Selector − This can be derived from element tags and attributes.Syntax −driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("")).xpath − This can be derived from element tags and attributes.Syntax −driver.findElement(By.xpath("")).TagName − This can be derived from the HTML tags to identify the elements.Syntax − driver.findElement(By.tagName("")). LinkText − This can be derived from the anchor text to identify the elementszSyntax − driver.findElement(By.linkText("")).PartialLinkText − This can be derived from the partial anchor text to identify the elementsSyntax − driver.findElement(By.partialLinkText("")).Classname ...
Read MoreHow to count the number of headers in a web table in Selenium?
The total number of headers in the web table can be counted with the help of findElements() method. The logic is to return a list of web elements with xpath with the help of tag inside the table, then getting the size of that list.Code ImplementationExampleimport org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.Keys; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement; import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver; import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit; import java.util.List; public class TableHeaderCount { 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/plsql/plsql_basic_syntax.htm"; driver.get(url); ...
