We can scroll a specific DIV using Selenium webdriver. Selenium cannot handle scrolling directly. It takes the help of the Javascript Executor to do scrolling action to a specific DIV.First of all we have to identify the specific DIV up to which we have to scroll to with the help of xpath or css locator. Next we shall take the help of the Javascript Executor to run the Javascript commands. The method executeScript is used to execute Javascript commands in Selenium. We have to use the scrollIntoView method in Javascript and pass true as an argument to the method.SyntaxWebElement m=driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[@class='slick-track']")); ... Read More

We can close the child browser window in Selenium webdriver. The getWindowHandles and getWindowHandle methods can be used to handle child windows. The getWindowHandles method is used to store all the opened window handles in the Set data structure.The getWindowHandle method is used to store the browser window currently active. To iterate over the window handles, the iterator method is used. We have to add import java.util.Set to accommodate Set and import java.util.List and import java.util.Iterator statements to accommodate iterator in our code.By default, the driver object can access the elements of the parent window. In order to switch its focus ... Read More

We can set default timeout with Selenium webdriver. The method set_page_load_timeout is used to have a timeout for the page loading. The wait time in seconds is passed as parameter to the method.Syntaxdriver.set_page_load_timeout(5)A TimeoutException is thrown if the page is still not loaded after the wait time is passed.We can use the implicit wait concept in synchronization to define the default timeout time.

We can mention a specific node with the help of its index number enclosed in [].Let us have a look at the below html code for an element having children. The element with tagname ul has multiple child elements with tagname li. If we want to identify the second child of the parent having text as Software Quality management the xpath expression with node index shall be //ul[@class='list']li[2].The xpath expression to identify the second child of the parent element ul can also be created with the ...
