26 – Element Handling in Selenium

Selenium Class 26: Handling Elements in Selenium

Selenium WebDriver API Commands Continuation:

iv) Verification Commands on Web Elements

14) isDisplayed() command is applicable on all the web elements
15) isEnabled() command is applicable on all the web elements
16) isSelected() command is applicable on Radio Buttons and Check boxes only

14) isDisplayed()

Description:
It checks weather an element is displayed/visable or not in the current web page

Syntax:
boolean variableName = driverObject.WebDriverCommand/findElement(By.ElementLocator(“locarValue”)).WebDriverCommand/isDisplayed();

Example:
driver.get(“http://www.google.com”);
Thread.sleep(2000);

boolean linkPresent = driver.findElement(By.linkText(“Gmail”)).isDisplayed();
System.out.println(linkPresent);
………………………………………………
driver.get(“http://www.google.com”);
Thread.sleep(2000);

boolean linkPresent = driver.findElement(By.linkText(“Yahoo”)).isDisplayed();
System.out.println(linkPresent);

15) isEnabled()

Description:
It checks weather an element is enabled or not?

Syntax:
boolean variableName = driverObject.WebDriverCommand/findElement(By.ElementLocator(“locarValue”)).WebDriverCommand/isEnabled();

Example:
driver.get(“http://www.google.com”);
Thread.sleep(2000);

boolean linkStatus = driver.findElement(By.linkText(“Gmail”)).isEnabled();
System.out.println(linkStatus);
………………………………………………
Button – External Operation (Click) – Internal Operation (Submits)
Link – External Operation (Click) – Internal Operation (Redierects…)
Radio Button External Operation (Click) – Internal Operation (Selects)
Checkbox External Operation (Click) – Internal Operation (Selects/Checks)

16) isSelected()

It checks weather an element (Radio Button or Checkbox) is selected or not in the current web page

Syntax:
boolean variableName = driverObject.WebDriverCommand/findElement(By.ElementLocator(“locarValue”)).WebDriverCommand/isSelected();

Example:
//Instantiate MS Edge Browser driver
System.setProperty(“webdriver.chrome.driver”, “E:/chromedriver.exe”);

//Create Edge Browser Driver for WebDriver interface
WebDriver driver= new ChromeDriver();
driver.manage().window().maximize();

//Launch gcrShop Admin Home page
driver.get(“http://www.gcrit.com/build3/create_account.php?osCsid=4uc26s88u88n2h22efs7qm8qi7”);

boolean buttonStatus= driver.findElement(By.name(“gender”)).isSelected();
System.out.println(buttonStatus);//false

WebElement checkBox = driver.findElement(By.name(“newsletter”));

System.out.println(checkBox.isSelected());//false
Thread.sleep(2000);
checkBox.click();
System.out.println(checkBox.isSelected());//true

Thread.sleep(2000);
checkBox.click();
System.out.println(checkBox.isSelected());//false
