- Add Selenium Jars
- Download the Jar files related to OS ( from selenium.org Site)
- Once the download is completed, please follow the below steps to add the jars to the out project.
- Create the new folder under your project named as “lib”
- Then create the subfolder under the “lib” and name it as “Selenium Jars”
- Now copy the downloaded jar file to “selenium Jar” Folder
- Once the copy is done, Do the right click on the Jar file and select the “Build Path” and the select the “Add to Build Path”
- Once you clicked on the “Add to build path” u can able to see the jar file added to our project under the referenced Libraries.
- Now we need to write a sample program to open the browser and go to the mentioned link in the program.
- For that we need to create the New Package inside the Package “src”, and name it as “test”(U can name whatever u want).
- In “test” Package now we need to create the new class name it as “SeleniumTest”.
- Now we need to write the program in the Class,
- We need to create the object for the web Driver
- In the above image, u can see some errors in the code, that is because we have not imported the required packages to our package.
- For importing the package we need to move the mouse over the word and select the appropriate package
- For opening the browser we use the driver.get (" ")
- Once we run the above program we will get the error as below,
- For that, we need to add the “Gecko” Driver to our project
- https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases
- Download the driver which is suitable to OS
- Once the “Gecko” Driver is downloaded, copy this driver to our project like below
- Once it is copied in our project we need to add the Gecko Driver to project using below method
- System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "C:\\Java_Manideep\\SeleniumTest2\\lib\\GeckoDriver\\geckodriver.exe");
- You can get the file path for the gecko driver as below
- Right-click on the Gecko Driver
- Go to properties and you can see the path
- If we moved the project to some other laptop or folder, the file path may get change and it leads to the wrong path
- To avoid this issue we have to store the project location in one variable and use this variable while passing the path.
- The “user.dir”, contains the location of the Project where it is pasted or moved.
- We can pass the above-created variable like below.
- Download the Chrome Diver from below link
- https://www.seleniumhq.org/download/
- Download the chrome driver which is suitable to OS
- Once you downloaded the driver just copy it and paste it in our project
- è In this, we will separate code into modules
·
we are doing the three things in this program
o
setting the browser
o
Setting the browser Configuration
o
Run test
·
For these, we need to create the three separate
methods
o
SetBrowser()
o
SetBrowserConfig()
o
Runtest()
- Sample program
package Test;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
public class SeleniumTest {
static String Browser;
static WebDriver Driver;
public static void main(String[] args) {
SetBrowser();
SetBrowserConfig();
RunTest();
}
public static void SetBrowser() {
Browser="FireFox"; // Chrome
}
public static void SetBrowserConfig() {
String ProjectLocation=System.getProperty("user.dir");
if(Browser.contains("FireFox"))
{
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", ProjectLocation+"\\lib\\GeckoDriver\\geckodriver.exe");
Driver=new FirefoxDriver();
}
else
{
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", ProjectLocation+"\\lib\\ChromeDriver\\chromedriver.exe");
Driver=new ChromeDriver();
}
}
public static void RunTest() {
Driver.get("Https://google.com");
Driver.quit();
}
}
Selenium Notes
Locators:->
Locating elements in Selenium WebDriver is performed with the
help of findElement() and findElements() methods provided by WebDriver and
WebElement class.

Using the ACTIONS class we
can pass the keyboard keys to the program.
