In this blog post , let us see how Mr.Web Driver is going to handle an Auto Suggest box . First and foremost point to be noted  is when you type a character(or) text  in the auto suggest box.we need to wait till application shows up some suggestions starting (or) containing the typed character. In the below illustrated example , Mr.Web Driver gives us an option to wait(using Explicit wait) until the suggestions are visible. public class Suggestbox { WebDriver driver=new FirefoxDriver();   @Test   public void cool() throws InterruptedException {  driver.get("http://gwt.googleusercontent.com/samples/Showcase/Showcase.html#!CwSuggestBox");  driver.manage().window().maximize();  WebDriverWait wait=new WebDriverWait(driver,10);  wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfAllElementsLocatedBy(By.id("gwt-debug-cwSuggestBox")));  //ENTER SOME VALUE IN SUGGEST BOX  driver.findElement(By....

We are going to see how to retrieve values of Single Select List box and How to Select multiple options in different ways on a Multi Select Listbox. import java.util.List; import org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.Keys; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement; import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.Select; import org.testng.annotations.Test; public class Listboxes { WebDriver driver=new FirefoxDriver();   @Test   public void Listboxtest() throws InterruptedException {  driver.get("http://gwt.googleusercontent.com/samples/Showcase/Showcase.html#!CwListBox");  driver.manage().window().maximize();  Thread.sleep(5000); //1. Single select list box -->first value will be the default value of the dropbox  WebElement lbox=driver.findElement(By.id("gwt-debug-cwListBox-dropBox"));  List...

Opening a link of a webpage in a new tab can be done by Ctrl (Key) + Click and opening a link in a  new page   by  Shift (Key) + Click. To perform this we need to import the package org.openqa.selenium.Keys. As you can observe in the below example. String selectAll = Keys.chord(Keys.SHIFT,Keys.RETURN); String tab=Keys.chord(Keys.CONTROL,Keys.RETURN); Wondering what is Keys and Chord ?  Keys is an enum inherited from java.lang.Enum<Keys> . Chord is a method used to simulate pressing many keys at once . CONTROL and SHIFT are Enum constants used to press Control key and Shift in the key board. import org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.Keys; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver; import org.testng.Reporter; import org.testng.annotations.Test; public class Openinglinkintabpage { WebDriver driver=new FirefoxDriver();   String defaultwindow = "";   @Test ...
