How to verify if we can select multiple options in a static dropdown in Selenium?


We can verify if we can select multiple options in a static dropdown in Selenium with the help of isMultiple() method. It returns a Boolean value of true or false.

Example

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;
import java.util.List;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.Select;
public class OptionsMultiple{
   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/tutor_connect/index.php";
      Select s = new Select(driver.findElement(By.xpath("//select[@name=’selType’]")));
      // isMultiple() returns a boolean value
      boolean result = s.isMultiple();
      System.out.println(result);
      driver.close();
   }
}
