How to extract the attribute value of an element in Selenium?
We can extract the attribute value of an element in Selenium with the help of getAttribute() method. Once we locate the element, this method is used to get the attribute value of the element and assigned to a variable.
Example
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;
import java.util.List;
public class AttributeType {
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(12, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
//Using id tagname attribute combination for css expression
WebElement button = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("input[name=’search’]"));
// getting the type attribute and printing in console
String buttontype = button.getAttribute(“type”);
System.out.println(“Attribute value is “ + buttontype);
driver.close();
}
}
