We can perform session handling with the help of Selenium webdriver with a TestNG framework. To trigger different sessions, we shall use the attribute parallel in the TestNG XML file.A TestNG execution configuration is done in the TestNG XML. To create multiple sessions, we shall add the attributes – parallel and thread-count in the XML file.The attribute thread-count controls the number of sessions to be created while executing the tests in a parallel mode. The value of parallel attribute is set to methods.In our example, we would have three methods with three different session ids which are executing in parallel.Exampleimport ... Read More

We can handle SSL certificate with Selenium webdriver in Chrome browser. A SSL is the standardized protocol used to create a connection between the browser and server.The information exchanged via a SSL certificate is encrypted and it verifies if the information is sent to the correct server. It authenticates a website and provides protection from hacking.An untrusted SSL certificate error is thrown if there are problems in the SSL certificate. We shall receive such an error while we launch a website. In Chrome, we use the ChromeOptions class to work with SSL certificates.We shall create an instance of this class ... Read More

We can automate Google Signup form with Selenium webdriver in Python.

We can get the following-sibling element for a table type of structure in Selenium webdriver. A following-sibling is used to determine the siblings of the context node.Also, these siblings should be present at the same hierarchy of the current node and share the same parent. Let us take an instance of a table with table tag having multiple children with tag tr.Then let us try to identify the elements in the third row highlighted on the below image from the first row which contains the table headers.Syntax//table[@id='table1']/tbody/tr[1]/following-sibling::tr[2]/tdHere, we are locating the third row in the table, but we have provided ...
