Selenium WebDriver Commands and Operations

Selenium WebDriver Methods / Commands are used to perform Operations on Web Elements

Using Element Locators and WebDriver Commands we create Test Cases.

Element Locators - To recognize / Indentify / Locate Elements

WebDriver Commands - To Perform Operations on Elements

Important WebDriver Commands / Methods

1) get()
2) getTile()
3) getCurrentUrl()
4) navigate().to()
5) navigate().back()
6) navigate().forward()
7) navigate().refresh()
8) close()
9) quit()

10) findElement()
11) sendkeys()
12) clear()
13) click()

14) isDisplayed()
15) isEnabled()
16) isSelected()

17) getText()

1) get()

Description: Opens a specified URL in the Browser window.

Syntax:

driverObject.get("URL");

Example:

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

2) getTitle()

Description: Returns the Browser Title

Syntax:

String stringName = driverObject.getTitle();

Example:

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
String browserTitle = driver.getTitle();


3) getCurrentUrl()

Description: Returns current url of the Browser

Syntax:

String stringName = driver.getCurrentUrl();

example:

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
String browserURL = driver.getCurrentUrl();


Browser Navigation Methods

4) navigate().to()

Description: Loads a new Page in the Browser window

Syntax:

driver.navigate().to("URL");

Example:

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

5) navigate().back()

Description: Moves a single item back in the Browser history

Syntax:

driver.navigate().back();

Example:
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
Thread.sleep(3000);
driver.navigate().back();

6) navigate().forward()

Description: Moves single item forward in the Browser history

Syntax:

driver.navigate().forward();

Example:

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
Thread.sleep(3000);
Thread.sleep(3000);
driver.navigate().back();
Thread.sleep(3000);
driver.navigate().forward();

7) navigate().refresh()

Description: Refreshes the current web page

Syntax:

driver.navigate().refresh();

Example:

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.navigate().refresh();

8) close()

Description: It closes the focused browser

Syntax:

driver.close();

Example:

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.close();

9) quit()

Description: Closes all Browsers that opened by WebDriver during execution

Syntax:

driver.quit();

Example:

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
In")).click();
driver.quit();

10) findElement()

Description: Finds the first element within the web page using given locator.

Syntax:

- Partial Code



Or

WebElement elementName =



Example:




Thread.sleep(3000);



Or
WebElement editbox =
editbox.sendKeys("India123");

WebElement editbox =
editbox.sendKeys("India123");
Thread.sleep(3000);
editbox.clear();

11) sendkeys()

WebElement elementName
data");

example:


Or
WebElement editbox =
