๐ Selenium Commands
Start with Initialise the WebDriver
1: Open a URL
driver.get("https://google.com")
- This launches the Browser which is initialized
2: Get Current URL as Text
driver.getCurrentUrl()
- Get the Current Page URL as String.
3: Get the Title
driver.getTitle()
- Get the Title of the Current Page.
4: Get Window Handle
driver.getWindowHandle();
- Useful when we have Multiple Windows to Handle
- Returns String( window hash code)
- Useful to switch to other window.
String mainWindow = driver.getWindowHandle();
driver.switchTo().window(mainWindow);
5: Get Window Handles
driver.getWindowHandles();
- Useful when we have Multiple Windows to Handle
- Returns Array of windows( window hash code)
- Useful to switch to other window.
Set<String> handles= driver.getWindowHandles(); driver.switchTo().window(โโwindowName);
java
6: DropDown Handling: Select Class
- Use to work with Select Tag
Select selectByValue = new Select(driver.findElement(By.id("SelectID")));
selectByValue.selectByVisibleText(โPramodโ);
selectByValue.selectByValue(โDuttaโ);
7: Select an element by Index
selectByValue.selectByIndex(2);
8: Input text in the input box.
driver.findElement(By.id("tinymce")).sendKeys("Hello Pramod");
9: Submit the form
driver.findElement(By.id("tinymce")).submit();
10: Switch to Iframe
driver.get("https://the-internet.herokuapp.com/iframe");
driver.manage().window().maximize();
driver.switchTo().frame("mce_0_ifr");
11: Close and quit the browser
driver.quit();
driver.close();
12: Check whether the element is enabled or disabled.
isEnabled()
driver.findElement(By.id("tinymce")).isEnabled();
13: Get the text of the element
driver.findElement(By.id("tinymce")).getText();
14: Find element size
int width = driver.findElement(By.id("tinymce")).getSize().width;
15: What is pageLoadTimeout?
Selenium defines different timeouts and wait for mechanisms. One of the timeouts is focused on the time a webpage needs to be loaded โ the pageLoadTimeout limits the time that the script allows for a web page to be displayed.
Syntax. : pageLoadTimeout(time,unit)
```java driver.manage().timeouts().pageLoadTimeout(500, SECONDS);
16: Wait Until and visibilityOfElementLocated.
```java
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 40);
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.id("tinymce")));
java
17: alertIsPresent()
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 300 /*timeout in seconds*/);
if(wait.until(ExpectedConditions.alertIsPresent())==null)
System.out.println("alert was not present");
else
System.out.println("alert was present");
18: Navigate to, back, forward within Browser.
```java driver.navigate().to("https://scrolltest.comโ);
driver.navigate().back();
driver.navigate().forward();
19: getScreenshotAs() To Take Screenshot in Selenium.
```java
TakesScreenshot scrShot =((TakesScreenshot)driver);
File SrcFile=scrShot.getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE);
File DestFile=new File("./b.png");
FileUtils.copyFile(SrcFile, DestFile);
20: moveToElement
Action class
Actions builder = new Actions(driver);
Action mouseOverHome = builder
.moveToElement(link_Home)
.build();
21: dragAndDrop()
We can automate drag and drop of such elements using Selenium Webdriver.
Actions act=new Actions(driver);
//Dragged and dropped.
act.dragAndDrop(From, To).build().perform();
22: Alert switchTo() and accept(), dismiss()
driver.switchTo().alert().dismiss();
driver.switchTo().alert().accept();
driver.switchTo().alert().getText();
driver.switchTo().alert().sendKeys("Text");
23: POI to read excel
Recommenced to Read - https://mkyong.com/java/apache-poi-reading-and-writing-excel-file-in-java/
24: Database connection
DriverManager.getConnection(URL, "username", "password" )
25: Asserts with Junit.
Assert.assertNotEquals(message, โThis textโ);
Assert.assertTrue(result<0);
Assert.assertFalse(result<0);
Assert.assertEquals(message, โThis textโ);
26: quit()
// Quit Driver.
driver.quit();
27: Clear Input box
driver.findElement(By.id("User")).clear();
28: Click an element
driver.findElement(By.id("User")).click();
29: getSize() of element
int width = driver.findElement(By.id("tinymce")).getSize().width;
