Selenium Webdriver - iFrames

Selenium Webdriver allows users to interact with iframes on the page but you have to put a little effort into it. Selenium Webdriver extends specific methods that allow to switch in and out of iframes. In this video we will look at how to use those methods to be able to access and interact with elements inside an iframe and then how to safely exit the iframe and gain access to the original elements on the page.

This tutorial is in Python but similar methods are available in Java.

This video is part of the Python WebDriver video series.
It is the most complete and most advanced collection of Python WebDriver Tutorials on the internet.
Every video in this course goes in-depth with examples of best practices and explanations of why its a best practice.
You will not find better Python Selenium WebDriver tutorials anywhere else, paid or not.
In fact I have never seen any tutorial online that show how to create wrappers for WebDriver,
which are fundamental when building frameworks and I have yet to see a proper video that shows how to create Page Objects.
This series covers basic areas for WebDriver with advanced examples of how to build and support each component in a
reusable and scalable manner for selectors, dropdowns, checkboxes, radio buttons etc.
This Python tutorial series on WebDriver also covers more advanced areas like:
etc

Hi Artur. Thank you so much for this tutorial. I was trying to drag and drop some objects and could't make it work. The problem was that all those objects are usually inside some 'iframe'. Therefore, I could not allocate non of those objects. Thanks to you now everything works just fine.
