Chapter 1: Getting started with selenium-
webdriver
Remarks
This section provides an overview of what selenium-webdriver is, and why a developer might want
to use it.

It should also mention any large subjects within selenium-webdriver, and link out to the related
topics. Since the Documentation for selenium-webdriver is new, you may need to create initial
versions of those related topics.

Versions

Version Release Date

0.0.1 2016-08-03

Examples
Installation or Setup

To begin using WebDriver you will need to obtain the relevant Driver from the Selenium site:
Selenium HQ Downloads. From here you need to download the driver relevant to the browser(s)
and/or platform(s) you are trying to run WebDriver on, e.g. if you were testing in Chrome the
Selenium site will direct you to:

https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/

In order to download chromedriver.exe.

Finally, before being able to use WebDriver you will need to download the relevant language
bindings, e.g. if using C# you can access the download from Selenium HQ Downloads page to
obtain the required .dll files or, alternatively, download them as packages in Visual Studio via
NuGet package manager.

The required files should now be downloaded, for information on how to begin using WebDriver,
refer to the other selenium-webdriver documentation.

For Visual Studio [NuGet]

The easiest way of installing Selenium WebDriver is by using a NuGet package manager.

https://riptutorial.com/ 2
In your project, right click "References", and click on "Manage NuGet Packages" as shown:

Then, type into the search box "webdriver". You should then see something like this:

Install "Selenium.WebDriver", and "Selenium.Support" (the Support package includes additional

resources, such as Wait) by clicking on the Install button on the right side.

Then you can install your WebDrivers you wish to use, such as one of these:

• Selenium.WebDriver.ChromeDriver (Google Chrome)

• PhantomJS (headless)

What is Selenium WebDriver ?

Selenium is a set of tools designed to automate browsers. It is commonly used for web

https://riptutorial.com/ 3
application tests across multiple platforms. There are a few tools available under the Selenium
umbrella, such as Selenium WebDriver(ex-Selenium RC), Selenium IDE and Selenium Grid.

WebDriver is a remote control interface that enables you to manipulate DOM elements in web
pages, as well as to command the behaviour of user agents. This interface provides a language-
neutral wire protocol which has been implemented for various platforms such as:

• GeckoDriver (Mozilla Firefox)

• ChromeDriver (Google Chrome)
• SafariDriver (Apple Safari)
• InternetExplorerDriver (MS InternetExplorer)
• MicrosoftWebDriver, or EdgeDriver (MS Edge)
• OperaChromiumDriver (Opera browser)

as well as other implementations:

• EventFiringWebDriver
• HtmlUnitDriver
• PhantomJSDriver
• RemoteWebDriver

Selenium WebDriver is one of the Selenium tools which provides Object Oriented APIs in a
variety of languages to allow for more control and the application of standard software
development practices. To accurately simulate the way that a user will interact with a web
application, it uses "Native OS Level Events" as oppose to "Synthesized JavaScript events".

• https://www.w3.org/TR/webdriver/

Installation or setup for Java

In order to write tests using Selenium Webdriver and Java as programming language, you will
need to download JAR files of Selenium Webdriver from the Selenium website.

There are multiple ways to setup a Java project for the Selenium webdriver, one of the easiest
from all of them is using Maven. Maven downloads the required Java bindings for Selenium
webdriver including all the dependencies. The other way is to download the JAR files and import
them into your project.

Steps to setup Selenium Webdriver project using Maven:

1. Install maven on windows box following this document: https://maven.apache.org/install.html

2. Create a folder with name selenium-learing
3. Create a file into above folder using any text editor with name pom.xml
4. Copy below content to pom.xml

https://riptutorial.com/ 4
 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0

<dependency>
<groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
<artifactId>selenium-learning</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0-beta1</version>

</dependencies>
</project>

Note: Make sure that the version which you specified above is the latest one.You can check the
latest version from here : http://docs.seleniumhq.org/download/maven.jsp

5. Using command line, run below command into the project directory.

mvn clean install

Above command will download all the required dependencies and will add then into the project.

6. Write below command to generate an eclipse project which you can import to the Eclipse
IDE.

mvn eclipse:eclipse

7. To import the project into eclipse ide, you can follow below steps

Open Elipse -> File -> Import -> General -> Existing Project into Workspace -> Next ->
Browse -> Locate the folder contain pom.xml -> Ok -> Finish

Install the m2eclipse plugin by right clicking on your project and select Maven -> Enable
Dependency Management.

Steps to setup Selenium Webdriver project using Jar files

1. Create a new project in Eclipse following below steps.

Open Elipse -> File -> New -> Java Project -> Provide a name (selenium-learning) ->
Finish

2. Download jar files from http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/. You need to download both

Selenium Standalone Server and Selenium Client & WebDriver Language Bindings.
Since this document is talking about Java so you need to download only jar from Java
section. Have a look in attached screenshot.

https://riptutorial.com/ 5
Note: Selenium Standalone Server is only required if want to use remote server to run the tests.
Since this document is all above setting up the project so its better to have everything at place.

3. The jars will get downloaded in zip file, unzip them. You should be able to see .jar directly.

4. In eclipse, right click on the project which you created in step-1 and follow below steps.

Properties ->Java Build Path -> Select Libraries tab -> Click Add External Jars ->
Locate the unzipped jar folder which you downloaded above -> Select all the jars from
lib folder -> Click Ok -> Again click on Add External Jars -> Locate same unzipped
folder -> Select the jar which is outside of lib folder (client-combined-3.0.0-beta1-
nodeps.jar) -> Ok

Similarly add the Selenium Standalone Server following the above step.

5. Now you can start writing selenium code into your project.

PS: Above documentation is based on selenium-3.0.0 beta version so the names of jar files
specified may change with version.

Chapter 2: Actions (Emulating complex user
gestures)
Introduction
The Actions class gives us a way of emulating precisely how a user would interact with a web
page/elements. Using an instance of this class you can describe a series of actions, such as
clicking, double-clicking, dragging, pressing keys, etc. Once these actions are described, in order
to carry the actions out, you must call must build the actions (.Build()) and then instruct them to
be performed (.Perform()). So we must describe, build, perform. The examples below will expand
upon this.

Syntax
• dragAndDrop(WebElement source, WebElement target)
• dragAndDropBy(WebElement source, int xOffset, int yOffset)
• perform()

Parameters

Parameters Details

source Element to emulate button down at.

target Element to move to and release the mouse at.

xOffset x co-ordinate to move to.

yOffset y co-ordinate to move to.

Remarks
This section contains information of Actions class of Selenium WebDriver. The Actions class
provides you convenient methods to perform complex user gestures like drag and drop, hold and
click etc.

Examples
Drag and Drop

C#
https://riptutorial.com/ 7
 using OpenQA.Selenium;
using OpenQA.Selenium.Firefox;
using OpenQA.Selenium.Interactions;

namespace WebDriverActions
{
class WebDriverTest
{
static void Main()
{
IWebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("");
IWebElement source = driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector(""));
IWebElement target = driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector(""));
Actions action = new Actions(driver);
action.DragAndDrop(source, target).Perform();
}
}
}

The above will find an IWebElement, source, and drag it to, and drop it into the second IWebElement,
target.

Java
Drag and Drop using source and target webelement.

A convenience method that performs click-and-hold at the location of the source element, moves
to the location of the target element, then releases the mouse.

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions;

/**
* Drag and Drop test using source and target webelement
*/
public class DragAndDropClass {
public static void main(String[] args) {
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.get("");
WebElement source = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector(""));
WebElement target = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector(""));
Actions action = new Actions(driver);
action.build();
action.dragAndDrop(source, target).perform();
}
}

Drag an element and drop it at a given offset.

A convenience method that performs click-and-hold at the location of the source element, moves

https://riptutorial.com/ 8
by a given offset (x and y, both integers), then releases the mouse.

WebElement source = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector(""));

Actions action = new Actions(driver);
action.build()
action.dragAndDropBy(source, x, y).perform(); // x and y are integers value

Move to Element

C#
Suppose you want to test that when you hover over an element, a drop list is displayed. You may
want to check the contents of this list, or perhaps select an option from the list.

First create an Action, to hover over the element (e.g. my element has link text "Admin"):

Actions mouseHover = new Actions(driver);

mouseHover.MoveToElement(driver.FindElement(By.LinkText("Admin"))).Perform();

In the example above:

• You have created the action mouseHover

• You have told driver to move to a specific element
• From here you can perform other Actions with the mouseHover object or continue testing with
your driver object

This approach is of particular use when clicking on an element performs a different

function than hovering over it.

A full example:

Actions mouseHover = new Actions(driver);

mouseHover.MoveToElement(driver.FindElement(By.LinkText("Admin"))).Perform();

Assert.IsTrue(driver.FindElement(By.LinkText("Edit Record")).Displayed);
Assert.IsTrue(driver.FindElement(By.LinkText("Delete Record")).Displayed);

Chapter 3: Basic Selenium Webdriver
Program
Introduction
This topic aims to show the basic web driver program in selenium supported languages like C#,
Groovy, Java, Perl, PHP, Python and Ruby.

Journey includes opening browser driver --> Google Page --> shutdown the browser

Examples
C#

using OpenQA.Selenium;
using OpenQA.Selenium.Chrome;

namespace BasicWebdriver
{
class WebDriverTest
{
static void Main()
{
using (var driver = new ChromeDriver())
{
driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("http://www.google.com");
}
}
}
}

The above 'program' will navigate to the Google homepage, and then close down the browser
after fully loading the page.

using (var driver = new ChromeDriver())

This instantiates a new WebDriver object using the IWebdriver interface and creates a new
browser window instance. In this example we are using ChromeDriver (though this could be
replaced by the appropriate driver for whichever browser we wanted to use). We are wrapping this
with a using statement, because IWebDriver implements IDisposable, thus not needing to explicitly
type in driver.Quit();.

In case you haven't downloaded your WebDriver using NuGet, then you will need to pass an
argument in the form of a path to the directory where the driver itself "chromedriver.exe" is located.

Navigating

https://riptutorial.com/ 10
 driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("http://www.google.com");

and

driver.Url = "http://www.google.com";

Both of these lines do the same thing. They instruct the driver to navigate to a specific URL, and to
wait until the page is loaded before it moves to the next statement.

There are other methods tied to navigation such as Back(), Forward() or Refresh().

After that, the using block safely quits, and disposes the object.

Python

from selenium import webdriver

from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys

def set_up_driver():
path_to_chrome_driver = 'chromedriver'
return webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=path_to_chrome_driver)

def get_google():
driver = set_up_driver()
driver.get('http://www.google.com')
tear_down(driver)

def tear_down(driver):
driver.quit()

if '__main__' == __name__:
get_google()

The above 'program' will navigate to the Google homepage, and then close down the browser
before completing.

if '__main__' == __name__:
get_google()

First we have our main function, our point of entry into the program, that calls get_google().

def get_google():
driver = set_up_driver()

get_google() then starts by creating our driver instance via set_up_driver():

def set_up_driver():
path_to_chrome_driver = 'chromedriver'
return webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=path_to_chrome_driver)

Whereby we state where chromedriver.exe is located, and instantiate our driver object with this

https://riptutorial.com/ 11
path. The remainder of get_google() navigates to Google:

driver.get('http://www.google.com')

And then calls tear_down() passing the driver object:

tear_down(driver)

tear_down() simply contains one line to shut down our driver object:

driver.quit()

This tells the driver to close all open browser windows and dispose of the browser object, as we
have no other code after this call this effectively ends the program.

Java

The code below is all about 3 steps.

1. Opening a chrome browser

2. Opening google page
3. Shutdown the browser

import org.openqa.selenium;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome;

public class WebDriverTest {

public static void main(String args[]) {
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\path\\to\\chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

driver.get("http://www.google.com");
driver.quit();
}
}

The above 'program' will navigate to the Google homepage, and then close down the browser
before completing.

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\path\\to\\chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

The first line tells the system where to find the ChromeDriver (chromedriver.exe) executable. We
then create our driver object by calling the ChromeDriver() constructor, again we could be calling
our constructor here for any browser/platform.

driver.get("http://www.google.com");

This tells our driver to navigate to the specified url: http://www.google.com. The Java WebDriver
API provides the get() method directly on the WebDriver interface, though further navigation

https://riptutorial.com/ 12
methods can be found via the navigate() method, e.g. driver.navigate.back().

Once the page has finished loading we immediately call:

driver.quit();

This tells the driver to close all open browser windows and dispose of the driver object, as we
have no other code after this call this effectively ends the program.

driver.close();

Is an instruction (not shown here) to the driver to close only the active window, in this instance as
we only have a single window the instructions would cause identical results to calling quit().

Java - Best practise with page classes

Usecase : Login to FB account

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeClass;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class FaceBookLoginTest {

private static WebDriver driver;

LoginPage loginPage;
@BeforeClass
public void openFBPage(){
driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.get("https://www.facebook.com/");
loginPage = new LoginPage(driver);
}
@Test
public void loginToFB(){
loginPage.enterUserName("username");
loginPage.enterPassword("password");
homePage = loginPage.clickLogin();
System.out.println(homePage.getUserName());
}

Page classes : Login Page & Home Page Login page class :

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.FindBy;

public class LoginPage {

Chapter 4: Error Handling in Automation
using Selenium
Examples
Python

WebDriverException is a base Selenium-WebDriver exception that could be used to catch all other
Selenium-WebDriver exceptions

To be able to catch exception it should be imported first:

from selenium.common.exceptions import WebDriverException as WDE

and then:

try:
element = driver.find_element_by_id('ID')
except WDE:
print("Not able to find element")

In the same way you can import other more specific exceptions:

from selenium.common.exceptions import ElementNotVisibleException

from selenium.common.exceptions import NoAlertPresentException
...

If you want to extract exception message only:

from selenium.common.exceptions import UnexpectedAlertPresentException

try:
driver.find_element_by_tag_name('a').click()
except UnexpectedAlertPresentException as e:
print(e.__dict__["msg"])

Chapter 5: Exceptions in Selenium-WebDriver
Introduction
There are a number of exceptions that can be thrown while using a webdriver. The examples
below are meant to give an idea of what they mean.

Examples
Python Exceptions

Selenium Exception Documentation

ElementNotInteractableException: Thrown when an element is present in the DOM but

interactions with that element will hit another element due to paint order

• ElementNotSelectableException: Thrown when trying to select an unselectable element.

Examples of unselectable elements:
○ script
• ElementNotVisibleException: Thrown when an element is present on the DOM, but it is not
visible, and so is not able to be interacted with. Most commonly encountered when trying to
click or read text of an element that is hidden from view.
• ErrorInResponseException: Thrown when an error has occurred on the server side. This
may happen when communicating with the firefox extension or the remote driver server.
• ImeActivationFailedException: Thrown when activating an IME engine has failed.
• ImeNotAvailableException: Thrown when IME support is not available. This exception is
thrown for every IME-related method call if IME support is not available on the machine.
• InvalidArgumentException: The arguments passed to a command are either invalid or
malformed.
• InvalidCookieDomainException: Thrown when attempting to add a cookie under a
different domain than the current URL.
• InvalidElementStateException: Thrown when an action would result in an invalid state for
an element. Subclasses:
○ ElementNotInteractableException
○ ElementNotSelectableException
○ ElementNotVisibleException
• InvalidSelectorException: Thrown when the selector which is used to find an element does
not return a WebElement. Currently this only happens when the selector is an xpath
expression and it is either syntactically invalid (i.e. it is not a xpath expression) or the
expression does not select WebElements (e.g. “count(//input)”).
• InvalidSwitchToTargetException: Thrown when frame or window target to be switched
doesn’t exist.
• MoveTargetOutOfBoundsException: Thrown when the target provided to the
ActionsChains move() method is invalid, i.e. out of document.

https://riptutorial.com/ 17
 • NoAlertPresentException: Thrown when switching to no presented alert. This can be
caused by calling an operation on the Alert() class when an alert is not yet on the screen.
• NoSuchAttributeException: Thrown when the attribute of element could not be found. You
may want to check if the attribute exists in the particular browser you are testing against.
Some browsers may have different property names for the same property. (IE8’s .innerText
vs. Firefox .textContent)
• NoSuchElementException: Thrown when element could not be found. If you encounter this
exception, you may want to check the following:
○ Check your selector used in your find_by...
○ Element may not yet be on the screen at the time of the find operation, (webpage is still
loading) see selenium.webdriver.support.wait.WebDriverWait() for how to write a wait
wrapper to wait for an element to appear.
• NoSuchFrameException: Thrown when frame target to be switched doesn’t exist.
• NoSuchWindowException: Thrown when window target to be switched doesn’t exist. To
find the current set of active window handles, you can get a list of the active window handles
in the following way:
print driver.window_handles
• RemoteDriverServerException:
• StaleElementReferenceException: Thrown when a reference to an element is now “stale”.
Stale means the element no longer appears on the DOM of the page. Possible causes of
StaleElementReferenceException include, but not limited to:
○You are no longer on the same page, or the page may have refreshed since the
element was located.
○The element may have been removed and re-added to the screen, since it was
located. Such as an element being relocated. This can happen typically with a
javascript framework when values are updated and the node is rebuilt.
○Element may have been inside an iframe or another context which was refreshed.
• TimeoutException: Thrown when a command does not complete in enough time.
• UnableToSetCookieException: Thrown when a driver fails to set a cookie.
• UnexpectedAlertPresentException: Thrown when an unexpected alert is appeared.
Usually raised when when an expected modal is blocking webdriver form executing any
more commands.
• UnexpectedTagNameException: Thrown when a support class did not get an expected
web element.
• WebDriverException: Base webdriver exception. All webdriver exceptions either use
WebDriverException or InvalidStateException as the parent class.

Chapter 6: Executing Javascript in the page
Syntax
• object ExecuteAsyncScript(string script, params object[] args);
• object ExecuteScript(string script, params object[] args);

Examples
C#

In order to execute JavaScript in a IWebDriver instance you need to cast the IWebDriver to a new
interface, IJavaScriptExecutor

IWebDriver driver;
IJavaScriptExecutor jsDriver = driver as IJavaScriptExecutor;

You can now access all the methods available on the IJavaScriptExecutor instance which allow
you to execute Javascript, for example:

jsDriver.ExecuteScript("alert('running javascript');");

Python

To execute Javascript in python, use execute_script("javascript script here"). execute_script is

called on a webdriver instance, and can be any valid javascript.

from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.execute_script("alert('running javascript');")

Java

To execute Javascript in Java, create a new webdriver that supports Javascript. To use the
executeScript() function, either the driver must be cast to a JavascriptExecutor, or a new variable
can be set to the value of the casted driver: ((JavascriptExecutor)driver). driver.executeScript()
takes in a String that is valid Javascript.

WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

JavascriptExecutor JavascriptExecutor = ((JavascriptExecutor)driver);
JavascriptExecutor.executeScript("alert('running javascript');");

Ruby

https://riptutorial.com/ 19
 require "selenium-webdriver"

driver = Selenium::WebDriver.for :chrome

driver.execute_script("alert('running javascript');")

Chapter 7: Handle an alert
Examples
Selenium with Java

Here's how to Handle a popup alert in Java with Selenium:

There are 3 types of popups.

1. Simple alert : alert("This is a simple alert");

2. Confirmation alert : var popuResult = confirm("Confirm pop up with OK and Cancel
button");
3. Prompt alert : var person = prompt("Do you like stackoverflow?", "Yes/No");

Its upto user which type of popup need to be handled in their test case.

Either you can

1. accept() To accept the alert

2. dismiss() To dismiss the alert

3. getText() To get the text of the alert

4. sendKeys() To write some text to the alert

For simple alert:

Alert simpleAlert = driver.switchTo().alert();

String alertText = simpleAlert.getText();
System.out.println("Alert text is " + alertText);
simpleAlert.accept();

For Confirmation alert :

Alert confirmationAlert = driver.switchTo().alert();

String alertText = confirmationAlert.getText();
System.out.println("Alert text is " + alertText);
confirmationAlert.dismiss();

For Prompt alert :

Alert promptAlert = driver.switchTo().alert();

String alertText = promptAlert .getText();
System.out.println("Alert text is " + alertText);
//Send some text to the alert
promptAlert .sendKeys("Accepting the alert");
Thread.sleep(4000); //This sleep is not necessary, just for demonstration
promptAlert .accept();

https://riptutorial.com/ 21
according to your needs.

Another way you can do this, is wrap your code inside a try-catch:

try{
// Your logic here.
} catch(UnhandledAlertException e){
Alert alert = driver.switchTo().alert();
alert.accept();
}
// Continue.

C#

Here's how to close a popup alert in C# with Selenium:

IAlert alert = driver.SwitchTo().Alert();

// Prints text and closes alert
System.out.println(alert.Text);
alert.Accept();
or
alert.Dismiss();

according to your needs.

Another way you can do this, is wrap your code inside a try-catch:

try{
// Your logic here.
} catch(UnhandledAlertException e){
var alert = driver.SwitchTo().Alert();
alert.Accept();
}
// Continue.

Python

There are multiple ways to switch to alert pop-up in Python:

1. Deprecated:

alert = driver.switch_to_alert()

2. Using switch_to:

alert = driver.switch_to.alert

3. Using ExplicitWait:

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait

https://riptutorial.com/ 22
 from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

alert = WebDriverWait(driver, TIMEOUT_IN_SECONDS).until(EC.alert_is_present())

4. By declaring the instance of Alert class:

from selenium.webdriver.common.alert import Alert

alert = Alert(driver)

To fill input field in pop-up triggered by JavaScript prompt():

alert.send_keys('Some text to send')

To confirm dialog pop-up*:

alert.accept()

To dismiss:

alert.dismiss()

To get text from pop-up:

alert.text

*P.S. alert.dismiss() could be used to confirm pop-ups triggered by JavaScript alert() as well as
alert.confirm()

Chapter 8: Headless Browsers
Examples
PhantomJS [C#]

PhantomJS is a fully featured headless web browser with JavaScript support.

Before you start you will need to download a PhantomJS driver, and make sure to put this in the
beginning of your code:

using OpenQA.Selenium;
using OpenQA.Selenium.PhantomJS;

Great, now onto the initialization:

var driver = new PhantomJSDriver();

This will simply create a new instance of the PhantomJSDriver class. You can then use it the
same way as every WebDriver such as:

using (var driver = new PhantomJSDriver())

{
driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("http://stackoverflow.com/");

var questions = driver.FindElements(By.ClassName("question-hyperlink"));

foreach (var question in questions)

{
// This will display every question header on StackOverflow homepage.
Console.WriteLine(question.Text);
}
}

This works fine. However, the problem you probably encountered is, when working with UI,
PhantomJS opens a new console window, which is not really wanted in most cases. Luckily, we can
hide the window, and even slightly improve performance using PhantomJSOptions, and
PhantomJSDriverService. Full working example below:

// Options are used for setting "browser capabilities", such as setting a User-Agent
// property as shown below:
var options = new PhantomJSOptions();
options.AddAdditionalCapability("phantomjs.page.settings.userAgent",
"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:25.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/25.0");

// Services are used for setting up the WebDriver to your likings, such as
// hiding the console window and restricting image loading as shown below:
var service = PhantomJSDriverService.CreateDefaultService();
service.HideCommandPromptWindow = true;
service.LoadImages = false;

https://riptutorial.com/ 24
 // The same code as in the example above:
using (var driver = new PhantomJSDriver(service, options))
{
driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("http://stackoverflow.com/");

var questions = driver.FindElements(By.ClassName("question-hyperlink"));

foreach (var question in questions)

{
// This will display every question header on StackOverflow homepage.
Console.WriteLine(question.Text);
}
}

Pro tip: click on a class (e.g the PhantomJSDriverService), and press F12 to see exactly what they
contain along with a brief description of what they do.

SimpleBrowser [C#]

SimpleBrowser is a lightweight WebDriver without JavaScript support.

It is considerably faster than an aforementioned PhantomJS, however when it comes to functionality,

it is limited to simple tasks with no fancy features.

Firstly, you will need to download the SimpleBrowser.WebDriver package and then put this code
at the beginning:

using OpenQA.Selenium;
using SimpleBrowser.WebDriver;

Now, here is a short example on how to use it:

using (var driver = new SimpleBrowserDriver())

{
driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("http://stackoverflow.com/");

var questions = driver.FindElements(By.ClassName("question-hyperlink"));

foreach (var question in questions)

{
// This will display every question header on StackOverflow homepage.
Console.WriteLine(question.Text);
}
}

Headless browser in Java

HTMLUnitDriver
HTMLUnitDriver is the most lightweight implementation of headless(GUI-less) browser for
Webdriver based on HtmlUnit. It models HTML documents and provides an API that allows you to

https://riptutorial.com/ 25
invoke pages, fill out forms, click links, etc. just like you do in your normal browser. It supports
JavaScript and works with AJAX libraries. It is used for testing and retrieving data from website.

Example: Use of HTMLUnitDriver to fetch list of questions from http://stackoverflow.com/.

import java.util.List;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.htmlunit.HtmlUnitDriver;

class testHeadlessDriver{
private void getQuestions() {
WebDriver driver = new HtmlUnitDriver();
driver.get("http://stackoverflow.com/");
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
List<WebElement> questions = driver.findElements(By.className("question-
hyperlink"));
questions.forEach((question) -> {
System.out.println(question.getText());
});
driver.close();
}
}

It is same as any other browser(Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, IE), but it does not have GUI,
execution is not visible on screen.

3. Sample test with ExtentReports

Now, create a test with name test.java

public class TestBase {

WebDriver driver;

ExtentReports extent;
ExtentTest logger;
ExtentHtmlReporter htmlReporter;
String htmlReportPath = "C:\\Screenshots/MyOwnReport.html"; //Path for the HTML report to
be saved

@BeforeTest
public void setup(){
htmlReporter = new ExtentHtmlReporter(htmlReportPath);
extent = new ExtentReports();
extent.attachReporter(htmlReporter);

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "pathto/chromedriver.exe");
driver = new ChromeDriver();

@Test
public void test1(){
driver.get("http://www.google.com/");
logger.log(Status.INFO, "Opened site google.com");
assertEquals(driver.getTitle()), "Google");
logger.log(Status.PASS, "Google site loaded");
}

@AfterMethod
public void getResult(ITestResult result) throws Exception {
if (result.getStatus() == ITestResult.FAILURE)
{
logger.log(Status.FAIL, MarkupHelper.createLabel(result.getName() + " Test case
FAILED due to below issues:", ExtentColor.RED));
logger.fail(result.getThrowable());
}
else if (result.getStatus() == ITestResult.SUCCESS)
{
logger.log(Status.PASS, MarkupHelper.createLabel(result.getName() + " Test Case
PASSED", ExtentColor.GREEN));
}
else if (result.getStatus() == ITestResult.SKIP)
{
logger.log(Status.SKIP, MarkupHelper.createLabel(result.getName() + " Test Case
SKIPPED", ExtentColor.BLUE));
}
}

@AfterTest
public void testend() throws Exception {
extent.flush();

https://riptutorial.com/ 28
 }

@AfterClass
public void tearDown() throws Exception {
driver.close();
}

Allure Reports

This example covers the implementation of Allure Reports in Selenium using TestNG, Java and
Maven.

Maven Configuration
Repository
Add following code to configure the jcenter repository

<repository>
<id>jcenter</id>
<name>bintray</name>
<url>http://jcenter.bintray.com</url>
</repository>

Dependency
Add following dependencies to your pom.xml

<dependency>
<groupId>org.aspectj</groupId>
<artifactId>aspectjweaver</artifactId>
<version>${aspectj.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>ru.yandex.qatools.allure</groupId>
<artifactId>allure-testng-adaptor</artifactId>
<version>1.5.4</version>
</dependency>

Surefire Plugin Configuration

<plugin>
<groupId> org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.20</version>
<configuration>
<argLine>-
javaagent:${settings.localRepository}/org/aspectj/aspectjweaver/${aspectj.version}/aspectjweaver-
${aspectj.version}.jar

https://riptutorial.com/ 29
 </argLine>
<properties>
<property>

</property>
</properties>
<suiteXmlFiles>testng.xml</suiteXmlFiles>
<testFailureIgnore>false</testFailureIgnore>
</configuration>
</plugin>

Sample test for Allure Report

Create a sample test with name test.java

public class test{

WebDriver driver;
WebDriverWait wait;

@BeforeMethod
public void setup() {
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "path to/chromedriver.exe");
driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("https://www.google.com/");
wait = new WebDriverWait(driver,50);
}

@Title("Title check")
@Description("Checking the title of the loaded page.")
@Test
public void searchTest(){
String title = driver.getTitle();
LogUtil.log("Title Fetched: "+title);
assertEquals(title,"Google");
LogUtil.log("Test Passed. Expected: Google | Actual: "+title);
System.out.println("Page Loaded");
}

@AfterMethod
public void teardown(){
driver.close();
}
}

In the above class we have used LogUtiil class. This is simply done to log Steps in our test. Below
is the code for the same

LogUtil.java

public final class LogUtil {

private LogUtil() {
}

@Step("{0}")

https://riptutorial.com/ 30
 public static void log(final String message){
//intentionally empty
}
}

Here

@Title("") will add the title to your test in Allure Report

@Description("") will add the description to your test

@Step("") will add a step in the allure report for the test

On execution a xml file will be generated in the folder "target/allure-results/"

Final Report with Jenkins

If you are running in Jenkins with Allure Report plugin installed, then Jenkins will automatically
render the report in your job.

Final Report without Jenkins

For those who dont have a Jenkins, use the following commandline to create the html report.
Allure CLI is a Java application so it's available for all platforms. You have to manually install Java
1.7+ before using Allure CLI.

Debian

For Debian-based repositories we provide a PPA so the installation is straightforward: Install Allure
CLI for debian

$ sudo apt-add-repository ppa:yandex-qatools/allure-framework

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install allure-commandline

Supported distributions are: Trusty and Precise. After installation you will have allure command
available.

Mac OS

You can install Allure CLI via Homebrew.

$ brew tap qatools/formulas

$ brew install allure-commandline

After installation you will have allure command available.

Windows and other Unix

1. Download the latest version as zip archive from https://github.com/allure-framework/allure-

core/releases/latest.

https://riptutorial.com/ 31
 2. Unpack the archive to allure-commandline directory. Navigate to bin directory.
3. Use allure.bat for Windows and allure for other Unix platforms.

In the Commandline/Terminal now simply enter following syntax and report will be generated into
allure-report folder

$ allure generate directory-with-results/

Chapter 10: Interacting with the Browser
Window(s)
Examples
Managing the active window

C#
Maximizing the window

driver.Manage().Window.Maximize();

This is fairly straightforward, ensures that our currently active window is maximized.

Position of the window

driver.Manage().Window.Position = new System.Drawing.Point(1, 1);

Here we essentially move the currently active window to a new position. In the Point object we
provide x and y co-ordinates; these are then used as offsets from the top-left corner of the screen
to determine where the window should be placed. Note that you can also store the window
position in a variable:

System.Drawing.Point windowPosition = driver.Manage().Window.Position;

Size of the window

Setting and getting the window size uses the same syntax as the position:

driver.Manage().Window.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(100, 200);

System.Drawing.Size windowSize = driver.Manage().Window.Size;

URL of the window

We can obtain the current URL of the active window:

string url = driver.Url;

We can also set the URL for the active window, which will make the driver navigate to the new
value:

driver.Url = "http://stackoverflow.com/";

https://riptutorial.com/ 33
Window handles

We can obtain the handle for the current window:

string handle = driver.CurrentWindowHandle;

And we can obtain the handles for all open windows:

IList<String> handles = driver.WindowHandles;

Python
Maximizing the window

driver.maximize_window()

Get position of the window

driver.get_window_position() # returns {'y', 'x'} coordinates

Set position of the window

driver.set_window_position(x, y) # pass 'x' and 'y' coordinates as arguments

Get size of the window

driver.get_window_size() # returns {'width', 'height'} values

Set size of the window

driver.set_window_size(width, height) # pass 'width' and 'height' values as arguments

Current page title

driver.title

Current URL

driver.current_url

Window handles

driver.current_window_handle

List of currently opened windows

https://riptutorial.com/ 34
 driver.window_handles

Closing the current browser window

Switch to the new opened tab. Close the current windows(In this case the new Tab). Switch back
to first window.

PROTRACTOR:

browser.getAllWindowHandles().then(function (handles) {
browser.driver.switchTo().window(handles[1]);
browser.driver.close();
browser.driver.switchTo().window(handles[0]);
});

JAVA Selenium:

Set<String> handlesSet = driver.getWindowHandles();

List<String> handlesList = new ArrayList<String>(handlesSet);
driver.switchTo().window(handlesList.get(1));
driver.close();
driver.switchTo().window(handlesList.get(0));

Handle multiple windows

Python
Most commonly used scenario:

1. open page in new window

2. switch to it
3. do something
4. close it
5. switch back to parent window

# Open "Google" page in parent window

driver.get("https://google.com")

driver.title # 'Google'

# Get parent window

parent_window = driver.current_window_handle

# Open "Bing" page in child window

driver.execute_script("window.open('https://bing.com')")

# Get list of all windows currently opened (parent + child)

all_windows = driver.window_handles

# Get child window

child_window = [window for window in all_windows if window != parent_window][0]

https://riptutorial.com/ 35
 # Switch to child window
driver.switch_to.window(child_window)

driver.title # 'Bing'

# Close child window

driver.close()

# Switch back to parent window

driver.switch_to.window(parent_window)

driver.title # 'Google'

Examples
C#

Clearing the Content of element(Generally Text Box)

interactionWebElement.Clear();

Entering data to element (Generally Text Box)

interactionWebElement.SendKeys("Text");

Storing the value of the element.

string valueinTextBox = interactionWebElement.GetAttribute("value");

Storing Text of element.

string textOfElement = interactionWebElement.Text;

Clicking on an Element

interactionWebElement.Click();

Submitting a Form

interactionWebElement.Submit();

Identifing the visibility of an element on the page

bool isDisplayed=interactionWebElement.Displayed;

Identifing the state of an element on the page

Locating child element of interactionWebElement

IWebElement childElement = interactionWebElement.FindElement(By.Id("childElementId"));

Locating child elements of interactionWebElement

https://riptutorial.com/ 37
 Ilist<IWebElement> childElements =
interactionWebElement.FindElements(By.TagName("childElementsTagName"));

Java

Clearing the content of a web element: (note - when simulating user actions in tests, it's better to
send backspace, see next action)

interactionWebElement.clear();

Entering data - simulating sending keystrokes:

interactionWebElement.sendKeys("Text");
interactionWebElement.sendKeys(Keys.CONTROL + "c"); // copy to clipboard.

Getting the value of an element's attribute:

interactionWebElement.getAttribute("value");
interactionWebElement.getAttribute("style");

Getting element's text:

String elementsText = interactionWebElement.getText();

Selecting from dropdown:

Select dropDown = new Select(webElement);

dropDown.selectByValue(value);

Self explanatory:

interactionWebElement.click();
interactionWebElement.submit(); //for forms
interactionWebElement.isDisplayed();
interactionWebElement.isEnabled(); // for exampale - is clickable.
interactionWebElement.isSelected(); // for radio buttons.

Actions using org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions:

Drag & Drop:

Action dragAndDrop = builder.clickAndHold(someElement)

.moveToElement(otherElement)
.release(otherElement)
.build();

dragAndDrop.perform();

Select multiple:

https://riptutorial.com/ 38
 Action selectMultiple = builder.keyDown(Keys.CONTROL)
.click(someElement)
.click(someOtherElement)
.keyUp(Keys.CONTROL);

dragAndDrop.perform();

Self explanatory (using builder):

builder.doubleClick(webElement).perform();
builder.moveToElement(webElement).perform(); //hovering

}

So in your test class you can simply call it:

public class testClass{

@Rule
public TestRules testRules = new TestRules();

@Test
public void doTestSomething() throws Exception{
// If the test fails for any reason, it will be caught be testrules.
}

EventFiringWebDriver

Using the EventFiringWebDriver. You can attach WebDriverEventListener to it and override

methodes, ie the onException method:

EventFiringWebDriver driver = new EventFiringWebDriver(new FirefoxDriver());

WebDriverEventListener listener = new AbstractWebDriverEventListener() {
@Override
public void onException(Throwable t, WebDriver driver) {
// Take action
}
};
driver.register(listener);

Chapter 13: Locating Web Elements
Syntax
• ByChained(params By[] bys)

Remarks
Items are found in Selenium through the use of locators and the By class. In order to make a
robust automation project with Selenium, one should use locators for Web Elements smartly. The
locators should be descriptive, unique, and unlikely to change so you won't get false positives
in tests for example. The priority is to use:

1. ID - since it's unique and you'll get exactly the element you want.
2. Class Name - It's descriptive and can be unique in a given context.
3. CSS (better performance than xpath) - For more complicated selectors.
4. XPATH - Where CSS can't be used (XPATH Axis), e.g. div::parent.

The rest of the locators are prone to changes or rendering, and preferebly be avoided.

Rule of thumb: if your code cannot locate a particular element, one reason could be that your
code hasn't waited for all the DOM elements to download. Consider telling your program to "wait"
for a short period of time (try 3-5 seconds, and then slowly increase as needed) before searching
for said element. Here is an example in Python, taken from this question:

from selenium import webdriver

import time

browser = webdriver.Firefox()
browser.get("https://app.website.com")

reports_element = browser.find_element_by_xpath("//button[contains(text(), 'Reports')]")

# Element not found! Try giving time for the browser to download all DOM elements:
time.sleep(10)

reports_element = browser.find_element_by_xpath("//button[contains(text(), 'Reports')]")

# This returns correct value!

Examples
Locating page elements using WebDriver

To interact with WebElements in a webpage, first we need to identify the location of the element.

By is the keyword available in selenium.

https://riptutorial.com/ 41
You can locate the elements By..

1. By ID
2. By Class Name
3. By TagName
4. By Name
5. By Link Text
6. By Partial Link Text
7. By CSS Selector
8. By XPath
9. Using JavaScript

Consider the below script example

<form name="loginForm">
Login Username: <input id="username" name="login" type="text" />
Password: <input id="password" name="password" type="password" />
<input name="login" type="submit" value="Login" />

In the above code the username and password are set using id's. Now you are going to identify
the elements with id.

driver.findElement(By.id(username));

driver.findElement(By.id(password));

As selenium support 7 different languages, this document gives you an idea to locate the elements
in all the languages.

By ID
Example of how to find an element using ID:

<div id="coolestWidgetEvah">...</div>

Java - WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id("coolestWidgetEvah"));

C# - IWebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.Id("coolestWidgetEvah"));
Python - element = driver.find_element_by_id("coolestWidgetEvah")
Ruby - element = driver.find_element(:id, "coolestWidgetEvah")
JavaScript/Protractor - var elm = element(by.id("coolestWidgetEvah"));

By Class Name
Example of how to find an element using class name:

<div class="cheese"><span>Cheddar</span></div>

https://riptutorial.com/ 42
 Java - WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.className("cheese"));
C# - IWebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.ClassName("cheese"));
Python - element = driver.find_element_by_class_name("cheese")
Ruby - cheeses = driver.find_elements(:class, "cheese")
JavaScript/Protractor - var elm = element(by.className("cheese"));

By Tag Name
Example of how to find an element using tag name:

<iframe src="..."></iframe>

Java - WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.tagName("iframe"));

C# - IWebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.TagName("iframe"));
Python - element = driver.find_element_by_tag_name("iframe")
Ruby - frame = driver.find_element(:tag_name, "iframe")
JavaScript/Protractor - var elm = element(by.tagName("iframe"));

By Name
Example of how to find an element using name:

<input name="cheese" type="text"/>

Java - WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.name("cheese"));

C# - IWebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.Name("cheese"));
Python - element = driver.find_element_by_name("cheese")
Ruby - cheese = driver.find_element(:name, "cheese")
JavaScript/Protractor - var elm = element(by.name("cheese"));

By Link Text
Example of how to find an element using link text:

<a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=cheese">cheese</a>>

Java - WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.linkText("cheese"));

C# - IWebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.LinkText("cheese"));
Python - element = driver.find_element_by_link_text("cheese")
Ruby - cheese = driver.find_element(:link, "cheese")
JavaScript/Protractor - var elm = element(by.linkText("cheese"));

By Partial Link Text

Example of how to find an element using partial link text:

<a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=cheese">search for cheese</a>>

https://riptutorial.com/ 43
 Java - WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.partialLinkText("cheese"));
C# - IWebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.PartialLinkText("cheese"));
Python - element = driver.find_element_by_partial_link_text("cheese")
Ruby - cheese = driver.find_element(:partial_link_text, "cheese")
JavaScript/Protractor - var elm = element(by.partialLinkText("cheese"));

By CSS Selectors
Example of how to find an element using CSS Selectors:

<div id="food" class="dairy">milk</span>

Java - WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("#food.dairy")); //# is

used to indicate id and . is used for classname.
C# - IWebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("#food.dairy"));
Python - element = driver.find_element_by_css_selector("#food.dairy")
Ruby - cheese = driver.find_element(:css, "#food span.dairy.aged")
JavaScript/Protractor - var elm = element(by.css("#food.dairy"));

Here's an article about creating CSS Selectors:

http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_selectors.asp

By XPath
Example of how to find an element using XPath:

<input type="text" name="example" />

Java - WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input"));

C# - IWebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//input"));
Python - element = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input")
Ruby - inputs = driver.find_elements(:xpath, "//input")
JavaScript/Protractor - var elm = element(by.xpath("//input"));

Here's an article about XPath: http://www.w3schools.com/xsl/xpath_intro.asp

Using JavaScript
You can execute arbitrary javascript to find an element and as long as you return a DOM Element,
it will be automatically converted to a WebElement object.

Simple example on a page that has jQuery loaded:

Java - WebElement element = (WebElement)

((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript("return $('.cheese')[0]");

C# - IWebElement element = (IWebElement)

https://riptutorial.com/ 44
 ((IJavaScriptExecutor)driver).ExecuteScript("return $('.cheese')[0]");

Python - element = driver.execute_script("return $('.cheese')[0]");

Ruby - element = driver.execute_script("return $('.cheese')[0]")
JavaScript/Protractor -

Please note: This method will not work if your particular WebDriver doesn't support JavaScript,
such as SimpleBrowser.

Selecting by multiple criteria [C#]

It's also possible to use selectors together. This is done by using the
OpenQA.Selenium.Support.PageObjects.ByChained object:

element = driver.FindElement(new ByChained(By.TagName("input"), By.ClassName("class"));

Any number of Bys can be chained and are used as an AND type selection (i.e. all Bys are
matched)

Selecting elements before the page stops loading

When calling driver.Navigate().GoToUrl(url);, the code execution stops until the page is fully
loaded. This is sometimes unnecessary when you just want to extract data.

Note: The code samples below could be considered hacks. There is no "official" way of doing this.

Create a new thread

Create and launch a thread for loading a webpage, then use Wait.

C#

using (var driver = new ChromeDriver())

{
new Thread(() =>
{
driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("http://stackoverflow.com");
}).Start();

new WebDriverWait(driver, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10))

.Until(ExpectedConditions.ElementIsVisible(By.XPath("//div[@class='summary']/h3/a")));
}

Use Timeouts
Using a WebDriverTimeout, you can load a page, and after a certain period of time, it will throw an
exception, which will make the page stop loading. In the catch block, you can use Wait.

https://riptutorial.com/ 45
C#

using (var driver = new ChromeDriver())

{
driver.Manage().Timeouts().SetPageLoadTimeout(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(5));

try
{
driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("http://stackoverflow.com");
}
catch (WebDriverTimeoutException)
{
new WebDriverWait(driver, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10))
.Until(ExpectedConditions.ElementIsVisible
(By.XPath("//div[@class='summary']/h3/a")));
}
}

The problem: When you set the timeout for too short, the page will stop loading regardless of
whether is your desired element present. When you set the timeout for too long, you're going to
negate the performance benefit.

Chapter 14: Navigate between multiple
frames
Introduction
In web pages contain number of frame, selenium consider Frame is seprate window so access the
content present into frame need to switch into frame. Many time we need Web structure where we
have frame with in frame to navigate within frame windows Selenium provide swithTo() method.

Examples
Frame example

<iframe "id="iframe_Login1">

<iframe "id="iframe_Login2">

<iframe "id="iframe_Login3">

</iframe>

</iframe>

</iframe>

To switch into frame in selenium use swithTo() and frame()method.

driver.switchTo().frame(iframe_Login1); driver.switchTo().frame(iframe_Login2);
driver.switchTo().frame(iframe_Login3);

To switch back we can use parentFrame() and defaultContest();

parentFrame() : Change focus to the parent context. If the current context is the top level browsing
context, the context remains unchanged.

driver.switchTo().parentFrame();

defaultContent() : Selects either the first frame on the page, or the main document when a page
contains iframes.

driver.switchTo().defaultContent();

Chapter 15: Navigation
Syntax
• C#
• void Back()
• void Forward()
• void GotToUrl(string url)
• void Refresh()
• Python
• driver.back()
• driver.forward()
• driver.get("URL")
• driver.refresh()
• Java
• driver.navigate().back();
• driver.navigate().forward();
• driver.navigate().to("URL");
• driver.navigate().refresh();

Examples
Navigate() [C#]

It's possible to navigate the browser directly, like using the standard toolbar commands available
on all browsers:

You can create a navigation object by calling Navigate() on the driver:

IWebDriver driver
INavigation navigation = driver.Navigate();

A navigation object allows you to perform numerous actions that navigate the browser around the
web:

//like pressing the back button

navigation.Back();
//like pressing the forward button on a browser
navigation.Forward();
//navigate to a new url in the current window
navigation.GoToUrl("www.stackoverflow.com");
//Like pressing the reload button
navigation.Refresh();

https://riptutorial.com/ 48
Navigate () [Java]

For Navigate to any url :

driver.navigate().to("http://www.example.com");

For move backwards :

driver.navigate().back();

For move forwards :

driver.navigate().forward();

For refresh the page :

driver.navigate().refresh();

Browser methods in WebDriver

WebDriver, The main interface to use for testing, which represents an idealised web browser. The
methods in this class fall into three categories:

• Control of the browser itself

• Selection of WebElements
• Debugging aids

Key methods are get(String), which is used to load a new web page, and the various methods
similar to findElement(By), which is used to find WebElements. In this post we are going to learn
browser controlling methods. get

void get(java.lang.String url)

Load a new web page in the current browser window. This is done using an HTTP GET operation,
and the method will block until the load is complete. it is best to wait until this timeout is over, since
should the underlying page change whilst your test is executing the results of future calls against
this interface will be against the freshly loaded page. Usage

//Initialising driver
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

//setting timeout for page load

driver.manage().timeouts().pageLoadTimeout(20, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

//Call Url in get method

driver.get("https://www.google.com");
//or
driver.get("https://seleniumhq.org");

https://riptutorial.com/ 49
getCurrentUrl

java.lang.String getCurrentUrl()

Get a string representing the current URL that the browser is looking at. It returns the URL of the
page currently loaded in the browser.

Usage

//Getting current url loaded in browser & comparing with expected url
String pageURL = driver.getCurrentUrl();
Assert.assertEquals(pageURL, "https://www.google.com");

getTitle

java.lang.String getTitle()

It returns the title of the current page, with leading and trailing whitespace stripped, or null if one is
not already set.

Usage

//Getting current page title loaded in browser & comparing with expected title
String pageTitle = driver.getTitle();
Assert.assertEquals(pageTitle, "Google");

getPageSource

java.lang.String getPageSource()

Get the source of the last loaded page. If the page has been modified after loading (for example,
by Javascript) there is no guarantee that the returned text is that of the modified page.

Usage

//get the current page source

String pageSource = driver.getPageSource();

close

void close()

Close the current window, quitting the browser if it's the last window currently open. If there are
more than one window opened with that driver instance this method will close the window which is
having current focus on it.

Usage

//Close the current window

driver.close();

https://riptutorial.com/ 50
quit

void quit()

Quits this driver, closing every associated window. After calling this method we can not use any
other method using same driver instance.

Usage

//Quit the current driver session / close all windows associated with driver
driver.quit();

These are all very useful methods available in Selenium 2.0 to control browser as required.

Chapter 16: Page Object Model
Introduction
A significant role in automating web sites and web applications involves identifying items on the
screen and interacting with them. Items are found in Selenium through the use of locators and the
By class. These locators and interactions are put inside Page Objects as a best practice to avoid
duplicate code and make maintenance easier. It encapsulates WebElements and suppose to contain
behavior and return info on the page (or part of a page in a web app).

Remarks
Page object model is a pattern where we write object oriented classes that serve as an interface to
a particular view of web page. We use the methods of that page class to perform the required
action. Few years back, we were manipulating the HTML code of webpage in test classes directly
which was very difficult to maintain along with brittle to changes in UI.

However, having your code organized in a way of Page Object Pattern provides an application
specific API, allowing you to manipulate the page elements without digging around the HTML. The
basic Rue of thumb says, your page object should have everything which a human can do on that
webpage. For example, to access the text field on a webpage you should a method there to get
the text and return string after doing all the modifications.

Few important points you should keep in mind while designing the page objects:

1. Page object usually should not build only for pages, but you should prefer to build it for
significant elements of page. For example, a page having multiple tabs to show different
charts of your academics should have same number of pages as the count of tabs.

2. Navigating from one view to other should return the instance of page classes.

3. The utility methods which are required to be there only for a specific view or webpage should
belong to that page class only.

4. The assertion methods shouldn't be taken care by page classes, you can have methods to
return boolean but don't verify them there. For example, to verify user full name you can
have method to get boolean value:

public boolean hasDisplayedUserFullName (String userFullName) {

return driver.findElement(By.xpath("xpathExpressionUsingFullName")).isDisplayed();
}

5. If your webpage is based on iframe, prefer to have page classes for iframes too.

Advantages of Page Object Pattern:

1. Clean separation between test code and page code

https://riptutorial.com/ 52
 2. In case of any change in UI of webpage, no need to change your code at multiple places.
Change only in page classes.
3. No scattered element locators.
4. Makes code easier to understand
5. Easy maintenance

Examples
Introduction (Using Java)

An example to perform login test based on Page object pattern:

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.FindBy;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.PageFactory;

/**
* Class which models the view of Sign-In page
*/
public class SignInPage {

@FindBy(id="username")
private usernameInput;

@FindBy(id="password")
private passwordInput;

@FindBy(id="signin")
private signInButton;

private WebDriver driver;

public SignInPage(WebDriver driver) {

this.driver = driver;
}

/**
* Method to perform login
*/
public HomePage performLogin(String username, String password) {
usernameInput.sendKeys(username);
passwordInput.sendKeys(password);
signInButton.click();
return PageFactory.initElements(driver, HomePage.class);
}
}

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.FindBy;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.PageFactory;
/**
* Class which models the view of home page
*/
public class HomePage {

https://riptutorial.com/ 53
 @FindBy(id="logout")
private logoutLink;

private WebDriver driver;

public HomePage(WebDriver driver) {

this.driver = driver;
}

/**
* Method to log out
*/
public SignInPage logout() {
logoutLink.click();
wait.ForPageToLoad();
return PageFactory.initElements(driver, SignInPage.class);
}
}

/**
* Login test class
*/
public class LoginTest {
public void testLogin() {
SignInPage signInPage = new SignInPage(driver);
HomePage homePage = signInPage.login(username, password);
signInPage = homePage.logout();
}
}

C#

Page Objects should contain behavior, return info for assertions and possibly a method for page
ready state method on initialization. Selenium supports Page Objects using annotations. In C# it's
as follows:

using OpenQA.Selenium;
using OpenQA.Selenium.Support.PageObjects;
using OpenQA.Selenium.Support.UI;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;

public class WikipediaHomePage

{
private IWebDriver driver;
private int timeout = 10;
private By pageLoadedElement = By.ClassName("central-featured-logo");

[FindsBy(How = How.Id, Using = "searchInput")]

[CacheLookup]
private IWebElement searchInput;

[FindsBy(How = How.CssSelector, Using = ".pure-button.pure-button-primary-progressive")]

[CacheLookup]
private IWebElement searchButton;

public ResultsPage Search(string query)

{

https://riptutorial.com/ 54
 searchInput.SendKeys(query);
searchButton.Click();
}

public WikipediaHomePage VerifyPageLoaded()

{
new WebDriverWait(driver, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(timeout)).Until<bool>((drv) => return
drv.ExpectedConditions.ElementExists(pageLoadedElement));

return this;
}
}

notes:

• CacheLookup saves the element in the cache and saves returning a new element each call.
This improves performance but isn't good for dynamically changing elements.
• searchButton has 2 class names and no ID, that's why I can't use class name or id.
• I verified that my locators will return me the element I want using Developer Tools (for
Chrome), in other browsers you can use FireBug or similar.
• Search() method returns another page object (ResultsPage) as the search click redirects you
to another page.

Best Practices Page Object Model

• Create separate files for header and footer(as they are common for all the pages and it does
not make sense to make them a part of a single page)
• Keep common elements(Like Search/Back/Next etc) in separate file(The idea is to remove
any kind of duplication and keeping the segregation logical)
• For Driver, its a good idea to create a separate Driver class and keep Driver as static so that
it can be accessed across all pages! (I have all my webpages extend DriverClass)
• The functions used in PageObjects are broken down into smallest possible chunk keeping in
mind the frequency and the way in which they will be called(The way you have done for
login- although login can be broken down into enterUsername and enterPassword functions
but still keeping it as Login function is more logical because in majority of the cases, the
Login function would be called rather than separate calls to enterUsername and
enterPassword functions)
• Using PageObjects itself segregates Test script from the elementLocators
• Have utility functions in separate utils folder(like DateUtil, excelUtils etc)
• Have configurations in separate conf folder(like setting the environment on which the tests
need to be run, configuring the output and input folders)
• Incorporate screenCapture on failure
• Have a static wait variable in the DriverClass with some implicit wait time as you have done
Always try to have conditional waits rather than static waits like:
wait.until(ExpectedConditions). This ensures that the wait is not slowing down the execution
unnecessarily.

Remarks
This section contains details about implementation of Robot API with Selenium Webdriver. The
Robot class is used to generate native system input when selenium is not capable to do that for
example pressing right key of mouse, pressing F1 key etc.

Examples
Keypress event using Robot API (JAVA)

import java.awt.AWTException;
import java.awt.Robot;
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;

public class KeyBoardExample {

https://riptutorial.com/ 56
 public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
Robot robot = new Robot();
robot.delay(3000);
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_Q); //VK_Q for Q
} catch (AWTException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

With Selenium

Sometimes we need to press any key in order to test the key press event on web application. For
an instance to test the ENTER key on login form we can write something like below with Selenium
WebDriver

import java.awt.AWTException;
import java.awt.Robot;
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class LoginTest {

@Test
public void testEnterKey() throws InterruptedException
{
WebDriver driver=new FirefoxDriver();
Robot robot=null;
driver.get("test-url");
driver.manage().window().maximize();
driver.findElement(By.xpath("xpath-expression")).click();
driver.findElement(By.xpath("xpath-expression")).sendKeys("username");
driver.findElement(By.xpath("xpath-expression")).sendKeys("password");
try {
robot=new Robot();
} catch (AWTException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
//Keyboard Activity Using Robot Class
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER);
}
}

Mouse Event using Robot API (JAVA)

Mouse movement:

import java.awt.Robot;

public class MouseClass {

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
Robot robot = new Robot();

https://riptutorial.com/ 57
 // SET THE MOUSE X Y POSITION
robot.mouseMove(300, 550);
}
}

Press left/right button of mouse:

import java.awt.Robot;
import java.awt.event.InputEvent;

public class MouseEvent {

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
Robot robot = new Robot();

// LEFT CLICK
robot.mousePress(InputEvent.BUTTON1_MASK);
robot.mouseRelease(InputEvent.BUTTON1_MASK);

// RIGHT CLICK
robot.mousePress(InputEvent.BUTTON3_MASK);
robot.mouseRelease(InputEvent.BUTTON3_MASK);
}
}

Click and scroll the wheel:

import java.awt.Robot;
import java.awt.event.InputEvent;

public class MouseClass {

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
Robot robot = new Robot();

// MIDDLE WHEEL CLICK

robot.mousePress(InputEvent.BUTTON3_DOWN_MASK);
robot.mouseRelease(InputEvent.BUTTON3_DOWN_MASK);

// SCROLL THE MOUSE WHEEL

robot.mouseWheel(-100);
}
}

2. Scrolling to target element ("BROWSE TEMPLATES" button at the bottom of page) with
JavaScript

from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get('http://www.w3schools.com/')
target = driver.find_element_by_link_text('BROWSE TEMPLATES')
driver.execute_script('arguments[0].scrollIntoView(true);', target)

3. Scrolling to target element ("BROWSE TEMPLATES" button at the bottom of page) with built-in
method

from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get('http://www.w3schools.com/')
target = driver.find_element_by_link_text('BROWSE TEMPLATES')
target.location_once_scrolled_into_view

Note that location_once_scrolled_into_view also returns x, y coordinates of element after scrolling

4. Scrolling to the bottom of page with Keys

from selenium import webdriver

from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys

driver = webdriver.Chrome()

https://riptutorial.com/ 59
 driver.get('http://www.w3schools.com/')
driver.find_element_by_tag_name('body').send_keys(Keys.END) # Use send_keys(Keys.HOME) to
scroll up to the top of page

Note that send_keys(Keys.DOWN)/send_keys(Keys.UP) and send_keys(Keys.PAGE_DOWN)/

send_keys(Keys.PAGE_UP) also could be used for scrolling

Chapter 20: Selenium e2e setup
Introduction
This topic covers the end to end setup of Selenium i.e. Selenium Webdriver + TestNG + Maven +
Jenkins.

For report addition, please refer to topic HTML Reports

Examples
TestNG Setup

TestNG is your updated test framework for junit. We are going to utilize testng.xml for invoking
test suites. This is helpful when we are going to use CI ahead.

testng.xml
In the root folder of your project create an xml file with the name testng.xml. Note that name can
be different as well, but for convenience its used as "testng" everywhere.

Below is the simple code for testng.xml file.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd">

Chapter 21: Selenium Grid
Examples
Node configuration

Selenium Grid Node configuration resides on the Node itself and holds the information about
network configuration and Node capabilities. The configuration can be applied in various ways:

• Default Configuration
• JSON Configuration
• Command line Configuration

JSON Configuration

The node configuration in JSON file is split into 2 sections:

• Capabilities
• Configuration

Capabilities defines areas like what Browser types and versions are supported, locations of
browser binaries, number of maximum instances of each browser type.

Configuration deals with settings like hub and node addresses and ports.

Below is a an example of a JSON configuration file:

{
"capabilities": [
{
"browserName": "firefox",
"acceptSslCerts": true,
"javascriptEnabled": true,
"takesScreenshot": false,
"firefox_profile": "",
"browser-version": "27",
"platform": "WINDOWS",
"maxInstances": 5,

How to create a node

To create a node, you first need to have a hub. If you don't have a hub, you can create it like this:

java -jar selenium-server-standalone-<version>.jar -role hub

Then you're able to create a node:

java -jar selenium-server-standalone-<version>.jar -role node -hub

http://localhost:4444/grid/register // default port is 4444

Chapter 22: Selenium Grid Configuration
Introduction
Selenium Grid is a framework to run test distributed over a range of test devices. It's used for
testing web applications. Its possible to write tests in different popular programming languages,
including C#, Groovy, Java, Perl, PHP, Python and Ruby. The tests can be run against a range of
webbrowsers on platforms like Windows, Linux, and OS X.

It is open-source software, released under the Apache 2.0 license: web developers can download
and use it without charge.

Syntax
• for to run the jar file the following is the syntax for every jar file
• java -jar <jar-file-full-name>.jar -<your parameters if any>

Parameters

Parameters Details

role Is what tells the selenium which it was hub or node

port This is to specify which port the hub or node should be listening.

hub This parameter is used in node to specify the hub url

Its been used in node to specify the browser name like firefox, chrome,
browserName
internet explorer

Its where the instance of the browser is being specified eg. 5 means there
maxInstances
will be 5 instance of the browser which user specified will be present.

A Json configuration file for the node. You can specify the role, port etc. in
nodeConfig
here

A Json configuration file for the node. You can specify the role, port, max
hubConfig
instances etc. in here

Examples
Java code for Selenium Grid

String hubUrl = "http://localhost:4444/wd/hub"

https://riptutorial.com/ 71
 DesiredCapabilities capability = DesiredCapabilities.firefox(); //or which browser you want
RemoteWebDriver driver = new RemoteWebDriver(hubUrl, capability);

frameElement Select a frame using its previously located WebElement

Examples
To switch to a frame using Java

https://riptutorial.com/ 79
For an instance, if the html source code of an html view or element is wrapped by an iframe like
this:

<iframe src="../images/eightball.gif" name="imgboxName" id="imgboxId">

<p>iframes example</p>
<a href="../images/redball.gif" target="imgbox">Red Ball</a>
</iframe><br />

... then to perform any action on the web-elements of the iframe, you have to switch the focus to
the iframe first, using any one of the below methods:

Using frame Id (should be used only if you know the id of the iframe).

driver.switchTo().frame("imgboxId"); //imgboxId - Id of the frame

Using frame name (should be used only if you know the name of the iframe).

driver.switchTo().frame("imgboxName"); //imgboxName - Name of the frame

Using frame index (should be used only if you do not have the id or name of the iframe), where
the index defines the position of the iframe amongst all frames.

driver.switchTo().frame(0); //0 - Index of the frame

Note: If you have three frames in the page, then the first frame will be at index 0, the second at
index 1, and the third at index 2.

Using previously located webelement (should be used only if you have already located the
frame and have returned it as a WebElement).

driver.switchTo().frame(frameElement); //frameElement - webelement that is the frame

So, to click on the Red Ball anchor:

driver.switchTo().frame("imgboxId");
driver.findElement(By.linkText("Red Ball")).Click();

To get out of a frame using Java

To switch focus to either main document or first frame of the page. You have to use below syntax.

driver.switchTo().defaultContent();

Switch to a frame using C#

1. Switch to a frame by Index.

Here we are switching to index 1. Index refers to the order of frames on the page. This should be

https://riptutorial.com/ 80
used as a last resort, as frame id or names are much more reliable.

driver.SwitchTo().Frame(1);

2. Switch to a frame by Name

driver.SwitchTo().Frame("Name_Of_Frame");

3. Switch to a frame by Title, Id, or others by passing IWebElement

If you want to switch to a frame by id or title you have to pass in a web element as a parameter:

driver.SwitchTo().Frame(driver.FindElement(By.Id("ID_OF_FRAME")));
driver.SwitchTo().Frame(driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("iframe[title='Title_of_Frame']")));

Also note that if your frame takes a few seconds to come up, you may have to use a wait:

new WebDriverWait(driver, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10))

.Until(ExpectedConditions.ElementIsVisible(By.Id("Id_Of_Frame")));

Get out of a frame:

driver.SwitchTo().DefaultContent()

To get out of a frame using C#

To switch focus to either main document or first frame of the page. You have to use below syntax.

webDriver.SwitchTo().DefaultContent();

Switch among Child Frames of a Parent Frame.

Consider you have a Parent Frame(Frame-Parent). and 2 child

frames(Frame_Son,Frame_Daughter). Lets see various conditions and how to handle.

1.From Parent to Son or Daughter:

driver.switchTo().frame("Frame_Son");
driver.switchTo().frame("Frame_Daughter");

2.From Son to Parent: If parent is default frame, switch to default frame, else from default frame
switch to parent frame. But you cannot switch directly from son to Parent.

driver.switchTo().defaultContent();
driver.switchTo().frame("Frame_Parent");

3.From Son to Daughter: If your sister does some mistake don't yell at her, just reach out to your
Parent. Similarly, you give control to parent frame and then to daughter frame.

https://riptutorial.com/ 81
 driver.switchTo().defaultContent();
driver.switchTo().frame("Frame_Parent");
driver.switchTo().frame("Frame_Daughter");

Wait for your frames to load

In quite a few cases your frame might not show up immediately and you probably have to wait till it
is loaded to switch. Or else you will have NoSuchFrameException.

So its always a good choice to wait before you switch. Following is a ideal way to wait till a frame
is loaded.

try{
new WebDriverWait(driver, 300).ignoring(StaleElementReferenceException.class).
ignoring(WebDriverException.class).

until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOf((driver.findElement(By.id("cpmInteractionDivFrame"))));}
catch{

// throws exception only if your frame is not visible with in your wait time 300 seconds }

Chapter 27: Using @FindBy annotations in
Java
Syntax
• CLASS_NAME: @FindBy(className = "classname")
• CSS: @FindBy(css = "css")
• ID: @FindBy(id = "id")
• ID_OR_NAME: @FindBy(how = How.ID_OR_NAME, using ="idOrName")
• LINK_TEXT: @FindBy(linkText= "text")
• NAME: @FindBy(name= "name")
• PARTIAL_LINK_TEXT: @FindBy(partialLinkText= "text")
• TAG_NAME: @FindBy(tagName="tagname")
• XPATH: @FindBy(xpath="xpath")

Remarks
Note that there are two ways of using the annotation. Examples:

@FindBy(id = "id")

and

@FindBy(how = How.ID, using ="id")

are equal and both look for element by its ID. In case of ID_OR_NAME you can only use

@FindBy(how = How.ID_OR_NAME, using ="idOrName")

PageFactory.initElements() must be used after page object instantiation to find elements marked
with @FindBy annotation.

Examples
Basic example

Assume that we are using Page object model. Page Object class:

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.FindBy;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.PageFactory;

https://riptutorial.com/ 84
 public class LoginPage {

@FindBy(id="loginInput") //method used to find WebElement, in that case Id

WebElement loginTextbox;

@FindBy(id="passwordInput")
WebElement passwordTextBox;

//xpath example:
@FindBy(xpath="//form[@id='loginForm']/button(contains(., 'Login')")
WebElement loginButton;

public void login(String username, String password){

// login method prepared according to Page Object Pattern
loginTextbox.sendKeys(username);
passwordTextBox.sendKeys(password);
loginButton.click();
// because WebElements were declared with @FindBy, we can use them without
// driver.find() method
}
}

And Tests class:

class Tests{
public static void main(String[] args) {
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
LoginPage loginPage = new LoginPage();

//PageFactory is used to find elements with @FindBy specified

PageFactory.initElements(driver, loginPage);
loginPage.login("user", "pass");
}
}

There are few methods to find WebElements using @FindBy - check Syntax section.

Chapter 28: Using Selenium Webdriver with
Java
Introduction
Selenium webdriver is web automation framework which allows you to test your web application
against different web browsers. Unlike Selenium IDE, webdriver allows you to develop your own
test cases in programming language of your choice. It supports Java, .Net, PHP, Python, Perl,
Ruby.

Examples
Opening browser window with specific URL using Selenium Webdriver in
Java

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

class test_webdriver{
public static void main(String[] args) {
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.get("http://stackoverflow.com/");
driver.close();
}
}

Chapter 29: Wait
Examples
Types of Wait in Selenium WebDriver

While running any web application it’s necessary to take loading time into consideration. If your
code tries to access any element that is not yet loaded, WebDriver will throw an exception and
your script will stop.

There are three types of Waits -

• Implicit Waits
• Explicit Waits
• Fluent Waits

Implicit waits are used to set the waiting time throughout the program, while explicit waits are used
only on specific portions.

Implicit Wait
An implicit wait is to tell WebDriver to poll the DOM for a certain amount of time when trying to find
an element or elements if they are not immediately available. Implicit waits are basically your way
of telling WebDriver the latency that you want to see if specified web element is not present that
WebDriver is looking for. The default setting is 0. Once set, the implicit wait is set for the life of the
WebDriver object instance. Implicit wait is declared in the instantiation part of the code using the
following snippet.

Example in Java:

driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(15, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
// You need to import the following class - import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

Example in C#:

driver.Manage().Timeouts().ImplicitlyWait(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(15));

So in this case, you are telling WebDriver that it should wait 15 seconds in cases of specified
element is not available on the UI (DOM).

Explicit wait
You may encounter instances when some element takes more time to load. Setting implicit wait for

https://riptutorial.com/ 87
such cases doesn’t make sense as browser will wait unnecessarily for the same time for every
element, increasing the automation time. Explicit wait helps here by bypassing implicit wait
altogether for some specific elements.

Explicit waits are intelligent waits that are confined to a particular web element. Using explicit waits
you are basically telling WebDriver at the max it is to wait for X units of time before it gives up.

Explicit waits are done using the WebDriverWait and ExpectedConditions classes. In the below
example, we shall wait up to 10 seconds for an element whose id is username to become visible
before proceeding to the next command. Here are the steps.

Example in Java:

//Import these two packages:

import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;

//Declare a WebDriverWait variable. In this example, we will use myWaitVar as the name of the
variable.
WebDriverWait myWaitVar = new WebDriverWait(driver, 30);

//Use myWaitVar with ExpectedConditions on portions where you need the explicit wait to occur.
In this case, we will use explicit wait on the username input before we type the text tutorial
onto it.
myWaitVar.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.id(“username”)));
driver.findElement(By.id(“username”)).sendKeys(“tutorial”);

ExpectedConditions class has some predefined common conditions to wait for an element. Click
here to see list of these conditions in Java binding.

Example in C#:

using OpenQA.Selenium;
using OpenQA.Selenium.Support.UI;
using OpenQA.Selenium.PhantomJS;

// You can use any other WebDriver you want, such as ChromeDriver.
using (var driver = new PhantomJSDriver())
{
driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("http://somedomain/url_that_delays_loading");

// We aren't going to use it more than once, so no need to declare this a variable.
new WebDriverWait(driver, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10))
.Until(ExpectedConditions.ElementIsVisible(By.Id("element-id")));

// After the element is detected by the previous Wait,

// it will display the element's text
Console.WriteLine(driver.FindElement(By.Id("element-id")).Text);
}

In this example, system will wait for 10 seconds until the element is visible. If the element will not
be visible after the timeout, the WebDriver will throw a WebDriverTimeoutException.

Please note: If the element is visible before the 10 second timeout, system will immediately

https://riptutorial.com/ 88
proceed for further process.

Fluent wait
Unlike implicit and explicit wait, fluent wait uses two parameters. Timeout value and polling
frequency. Let’s say we have timeout value as 30 seconds and polling frequency as 2 seconds.
WebDriver will check for element after every 2 seconds until timeout value (30 seconds). After
timeout value is exceeded without any result, exception is thrown. Below is a sample code which
shows implementation of fluent wait.

Example in Java:

Wait wait = new FluentWait(driver).withTimeout(30, SECONDS).pollingEvery(2,

SECONDS).ignoring(NoSuchElementException.class);

WebElement testElement = wait.until(new Function() {

public WebElement apply(WebDriver driver) {
return driver.findElement(By.id("testId"));
}
});

Another advantage of using fluent wait is, we can ignore specific types of exceptions (Eg.
NoSuchElementExceptions) while waiting. Due to all these provisions, fluent wait is helpful in
AJAX applications as well as in scenarios when element load time fluctuates often. Strategic use
of fluent wait significantly improves automation efforts.

Different types of explicit wait conditions

In explicit wait, you expect for a condition to happen. For example you want to wait until an
element is clickable.

Here is a demonstration of a few common problems.

Please note: In all of these examples you can use any By as a locator, such as classname, xpath,
link text, tag name or cssSelector

Wait until element is visible

For example, if your website takes some time to load, you can wait until the page completes
loading, and your element is visible to the WebDriver.

C#

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10));

wait.Until(ExpectedConditions.ElementIsVisible(By.Id("element-id")));

https://riptutorial.com/ 89
Java

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.id("element-id")));

Wait until element is not visible anymore

Same as before, but reversed.

C#

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10));

wait.Until(ExpectedConditions.InvisibilityOfElementLocated(By.Id("element-id")));

Java

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.invisibilityOfElementLocated(By.id("element-id")));

Wait until text is present in the specified element

C#

IWebElement element = driver.FindElement(By.Id("element-id"));

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10));

wait.Until(ExpectedConditions.TextToBePresentInElement(element, "text"));

Java

WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id("element-id"));

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.textToBePresentInElement(element, "text"));

If you go to the given link above, you will see all the wait condition there.

The difference between the usage of these wait conditions are in their input parameter.

That means you need to pass the WebElement if its input parameter is WebElement, you need to
pass the element locator if it takes the By locator as its input parameter.

Choose wisely what kind of wait condition you want to use.

Waiting For Ajax Requests to Complete

https://riptutorial.com/ 90
C#
using OpenQA.Selenium
using OpenQA.Selenium.Chrome;
using System.Threading;

namespace WebDriver Tests

{
class WebDriverWaits
{
static void Main()
{
IWebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(@"C:\WebDriver");

driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("page with ajax requests");

CheckPageIsLoaded(driver);

// Now the page is fully loaded, you can continue with further tests.
}

private void CheckPageIsLoaded(IWebDriver driver)

{
while (true)
{
bool ajaxIsComplete = (bool)(driver as
IJavaScriptExecutor).ExecuteScript("return jQuery.active == 0");
if (ajaxIsComplete)
return;
Thread.Sleep(100);
}
}
}
}

This example is useful for pages where ajax requests are made, here we use the
IJavaScriptExecutor to run our own JavaScript code. As it is within a while loop it will continue to
run until ajaxIsComplete == true and so the return statement is executed.

We check that all ajax requests are complete by confirming that jQuery.active is equal to 0. This
works because each time a new ajax request is made jQuery.active is incremented and each time
a request complements it is decremented, from this we can deduce that when jQuery.active == 0
all ajax requests must be complete.

Fluent Wait

Fluent wait is a superclass of explicit wait (WebDriverWait) that is more configurable since it can
accept an argument to the wait function. I'll pass on implicit wait, since it's a best practice to avoid
it.

Usage (Java):

Wait wait = new FluentWait<>(this.driver)

.withTimeout(driverTimeoutSeconds, TimeUnit.SECONDS)

https://riptutorial.com/ 91
 .pollingEvery(500, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS)
.ignoring(StaleElementReferenceException.class)
.ignoring(NoSuchElementException.class)
.ignoring(ElementNotVisibleException.class);

WebElement foo = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(By.yourBy));

// or use your own predicate:

WebElement foo = wait.until(new Function() {
public WebElement apply(WebDriver driver) {
return element.getText().length() > 0;
}
});

When you use Explicit wait with it's defaults it's simply a FluentWait<WebDriver> with defaults of:
DEFAULT_SLEEP_TIMEOUT = 500; and ignoring NotFoundException.

Fluent wait

Each FluentWait instance defines the maximum amount of time to wait for a condition, as well as
the frequency with which to check the condition. Furthermore, the user may configure the wait to
ignore specific types of exceptions whilst waiting, such as NoSuchElementExceptions when
searching for an element on the page.It is associated with the driver.

Wait<WebDriver> wait = new FluentWait<WebDriver>(driver)

.withTimeout(30, SECONDS) //actuall wait for the element to pe present
.pollingEvery(5, SECONDS) //selenium will keep looking for the element after every 5seconds
.ignoring(NoSuchElementException.class); //while ignoring this condition
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOf(driver.findElement(By.id("username"));
