How to do drag and drop action in Selenium?

We can perform drag and drop action in Selenium with the help of Actions class. In order to perform the drag and drop movement we will use dragAndDrop (source, target) method. Finally use build().perform() to execute all the steps.

Example

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Action;
import org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
public class DrgAndDrp{
   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://jqueryui.com/draggable/v";
      driver.get(url);
      driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(12, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
      driver.switchTo().frame(0);
      WebElement source= driver.findElement(By.id("draggable"));
      WebElement target= driver.findElement(By.id("droppable"));
      // dragAndDrop() method for dragging the element from source to //destination
      Actions a = new Actions(driver);
      Thread.sleep(5000);
      a.dragAndDrop(source, target).build().perform();
      Thread.sleep(5000);
      driver.quit();
   }
}
