Can I take all local-name() of WebElement?
I don't know the attributes of this webElement and I wish to find and save it.
Edit:
I have WebElement elm which it tagName is Div. I find this element by the next command:
WebElememnt elem = driver.findElements(By.xpath(//*[identifier="c")).get(1)
Now, I want to know all the attributes of this element, which I don't know when I do my query. for example: elm is the next in my DOM:
<div identifier="c" someAtr="b" someAtr2="c">
So I wish to know that I have an attributes which it name is "someAtr"="b" and "someAtr2"="c" (Again, I don't know that someAtr even exists, and for that I want all the attributes).
You can do so using the Javascript Executor and then getting the innerHtml:
String html = (String)((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript("return arguments[0].innerHTML;", ele);
Then you can parse the String as you normally would.

Service Now has changed to using shadow root like this
<span id='s1'>
#shadow-root
<button>Cancel</button>
<button>Submit</button>
</span>
I can easily get the first span:
WebElement sele = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//span[#id='s1']"));
And then get the shadow root:
SearchContext sc = sele.getShadowRoot();
But it will not let you do a
sc.findElements(By.xpath(".//button'"));
or more preferably
WebElement cancelButton = sc.findElement(By.xpath(".//button[.='Cancel']"));
You have to find with CS selector
sc.findElements(By.cssSelector(" button"));
and go through each button to get the text. To make it worse, when I try
List<WebElement> buttons = sc.findElements(By.cssSelector(" button"));
because it says there is an error with "=" and it expects "<=". No idea why. Have to do a
for (WebElement wele : sc.findElements(By.cssSelector(" button")) {
String txt = wele.getText();
if (txt.equals("Cancel")) ... // whatever you want
}
So my question is is there someway to convert "sc" to a WebElement? Even maybe someway to get itself? The equivalent of
sc.findElement(By.xpath("."));
or someway to look for xpath with SearchContext?
Looks like this discussion is exactly what you looking for.
There are several answers given there to get the Shadow Root as a WebElement object.
I am using TestNG and selenium for testing web app.
<div class="infoMessage">The request has been successfully submitted.</div>
In the my TestNG class file, like any other HTML elments for div element also
I have
#FindBy(xpath="//*[#id='wrapper']/table/tbody/tr[1]/td/div")
WebElement resultdiv;
Now that I got the webelement in resultdiv, how can i read the content "The request has been successfully submitted" ?
Just at a quick glance, it seem like you can try use className instead xpath:
#FindBy(className="infoMessage")
WebElement resultdiv;
Use .getText(); to achieve:
String text = resultdiv.getText();
Hi #bnath002 You can use Contains text Xpath, below is the code. this code always work for text.
WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[contains(text(),'The request has been successfully submitted.')]"));
String innerText= element.getText();
System.out.println("Your inner text is: "+innerText);
I'm a little unfamiliar with #FindBy, but i'm assuming you could use getText() as normal. But if everything went as planned and the xpath located your element successfully, you should be able to retrieve the text with the following :)
WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[#id='wrapper']/table/tbody/tr[1]/td/div"));
String innerText= element.getText();
System.out.println("Your inner text is: "+innerText);
Using firefox and marking a link in my web-app I get among other things, this code which I think I can use to caprture an object:
cb_or_somename_someothername cb_area_0219
This string is "classname" in Firebug.
Going to the script I type in:
WebElement rolle = driver.findElement(By.className("cb_or_somename_someothername cb_area_0219"));
But the script does not find the element when executing.
Other onfo in the Firebug panel is:
class="cb_or_somename_someothername cb_area_0219"
onclick="jsf.util.chain(this,event,'$(this).attr(\'disabled\', \'disabled\');return true;','mojarra.jsfcljs(document.getElementById(\'fwMainContentForm\'),{\'fwMainContentForm:j_idt156:2:selectRole \':\'fwMainContentForm:j_idt156:2:selectRole\'},\'\')');return false"
href="#"
id="fwMainContentForm:j_idt156:2:selectRole"
Is my script referring the element in a wrong way?
You cannot use search by compound class name (name with spaces). Try to use search by CSS selector instead:
WebElement rolle = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector(".cb_or_somename_someothername.cb_area_0219"));
or by XPath:
WebElement rolle = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[#class='cb_or_somename_someothername cb_area_0219']"));
Also you still can use search by one of two class names:
WebElement rolle = driver.findElement(By.className("cb_or_somename_someothername"));
or
WebElement rolle = driver.findElement(By.className("cb_area_0219")); // Note that this class name could be generated dynamically, so each time it could has different decimal part
Update
If you get Element is not clickable... exception it seem that your element is covered by another element at the moment you try to click on it. So try to wait until this "cover" is no more visible:
new WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(ExpectedConditions.invisibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//p[#class='environtment-banner']"));
WebElement rolle = driver.findElement(By.className("cb_area_0219"));
rolle.click();
Want to select the text "This is for testing selector" from below HTML code.
<div class="breadcrumb">
<a title=" Home" href="http://www.google.com/"> Home</a>
<span class="arrow">»</span>
<a title="abc" href="http://www.google.com/">test1</a>
<span class="arrow">»</span><a title="xyz" href="http://www.google.com/">test2</a>
<span class="arrow">»</span>
This is for testing selector
</div>
I'm not sure if there an easy way out for this or not. It turned out to be more difficult than I thought. Below mentioned code is tested locally and giving correct output for me ;)
String MyString= driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[#class='breadcrumb']")).getText();
//get all child nodes of div parent class
List<WebElement> ele= driver.findElements(By.xpath("//div[#class='breadcrumb']/child::*"));
for(WebElement i:ele) {
//substracing a text of child node from parent node text
MyString= MyString.substring(i.getText().length(), MyString.length());
//removing white spaces
MyString=MyString.trim();
}
System.out.println(MyString);
Let me know if it works for you or not!
Try with this example :
driver.get("http://www.google.com/");
WebElement text =
findElement(By.className("breadcrumb")).find("span").get(1);
Actions select = new Actions(driver);
select.doubleClick(text).build().perform();
I suggest also that you copy the xpath for the text you need and put it here to have the exact xpath
You cannot select text inside an element using xpath.
Xpath can only help you select XML elements, or in this case, HTML elements.
Typically, text should be encased in a span tag, however, in your case, it isn't.
What you could do, however, is select the div element encasing the text. Try this xpath :
(//div[#class='breadcrumb']/span)[3]/following-sibling::text()
You could try Abhijeet's Answer if you just want to get the text inside. As an added check, check if the string obtained from using getText() on root element contains the string obtained from using getText() on the child elements.
The HTML code is given attached, I do not want to use hard code xpath, the requirement is to make it generic:
<td bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<input name="hotel_name_0" id="hotel_name_0" type="text" value="Hotel Creek" class="select_text" onfocus="disable_ctrlV()" onkeypress="return Nothingonly(event)">
</td>
Code:
public static boolean fncVerifyTextInColumn(WebElement gridObjWebElement,
String stringToValidate, int columnNumber,String colName) {
boolean flagTextinColumn=false;
ArrayList<WebElement> objRows;
ArrayList<WebElement> objCols;
ArrayList<WebElement> childElement;
objRows=(ArrayList<WebElement>)gridObjWebElement.findElements(By.tagName("tr"));
objCols=(ArrayList<WebElement>)objRows.get(0).findElements(By.tagName("td"));
if(objCols.get(columnNumber).getText().equalsIgnoreCase(colName)){
for(int index=1;index<objRows.size();index++){
objCols=(ArrayList<WebElement>)objRows.get(index).findElements(By.tagName("td"));
childElement=(ArrayList<WebElement>)objCols.get(columnNumber).findElements(By.xpath("//input"));
System.out.println(childElement.get(0).getAttribute("value"));
if(stringToValidate.trim().equalsIgnoreCase(childElement.get(0).getAttribute("value").trim())){
flagTextinColumn=true;
}
}
}
return flagTextinColumn;
}
Method Calling:
fncVerifyTextInColumn(objGrid,hotels,1,"Hotel Name");
I would use cssSelector [id^='hotel_name_'] to locate the element and then getAttribute() retrieve the attribute value
By css = By.cssSelector("[id^='hotel_name_']");
WebElement myDynamicElement = (new WebDriverWait(driver, 10))
.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(css));
System.out.println(myDynamicElement.getAttribute("value"));
Notice the regex search of cssSelector here. With ^ I am skipping any dynamic number. Hoping that's the only element with hotel_name_someNumber on the page.
Just do
String attValue = driver.findElement(byAnyMethod).getAttribute("AttributeName");
Hope it helps
I think what you are looking for is this. (I'm assuming you know how to code, you just need a general direction so I'm going to leave out specific code.)
First, find the table the td is in. You might need to use an xPath for this or you'll need to assign an ID to the table so you can locate it.
Then once you have the table, do a FindElements to get the list of TRs under it.
Once you have the TRs, you can loop through them, grab the TDs under that and grab the TD at the index that has the INPUT you want the value of, get the INPUT and then get it's value.
Yep, lots of steps.
A shortcut may be to class all of the inputs you want the value for with a unique class and do a FindElements By className and loop through that list.
