No Selenium web Driver is not an Automation tool, its a framework or set of class which is used to automate a web based application.

It is used to automate web based application and have browser and Platform compatibility. It supports multiple language such as java, C# and Python.

No it is used to automate only web based application.

Different Locators are:
* ID
* ClassName
* Name
* TagName
* LinkText
* Partial Link Text
* XPATH
* CSS

For Chrome
driver=Webdriver.Chrome(“PathofChromedriver”)
For Firefox
driver=webdriver.Firefox(“Path of Firefox Driver”)
for IE
driver=webdriver.Ie(“Path of IE Driver”)

Synchronization is achieved using Implicit Wait and Explicit Wait.

Implicit Wait is used to default waiting time.

Explicit Wait is used to halt the execution untill condition is met or when time is elasped.

driver.find_element(By.ID,”Value”).send_keys(“Value”)

driver.find_element(By.ID,”Value”).is_enabled(), this specific method will return if true or false.

driver.find_element(By.ID,”Value”).text, this specific method will return innertext of the control.

driver.find_element(By.ID,”Value”).get_attribute(“InnerText”)

* SelectByValue: select the option based on option value.
* selectByVisibleText: selects the option based on visible text.
* selectByIndex: selects the option base on Index

it is used to refresh
driver.refresh()
it is used to navigate back
driver.back()
it is used to move forward
driver.forward()

FindElement returns first matching element.
FindElements returns more than one elements.

close is used to close the entire browser
quit is used to close the working tab.

No Selenium can’t handle windows pop Up

Yes it can handle web based pop up using “driver.switch_to_alert()”

driver.get_screenshot_as_file(“filename”) with this method we can take screen shot.

Switch class are used to switch between the different browser,frames and alert pop up.

Action class is user facing API to achieve complex user action events.

act=ActionChains(driver)

act.drag_and_drop(sourcelement,targetelement), with this method we can perform drag and drop

act=ActionChains(driver)
act.move_to_element(element)
with the above method we mouse hover on element, element argument is web element where we need to mouse hover.

yes we can, selenium provides Action class in which we can make use of the act.move_by_offset() method to move the mouse control to specific coordinates.

def GetData(rowIndex,colIndex):
tablerows=driver.find_element_by_id(“IdValue”).find_elements_by_tag_name(“tr”)
tableDefinitons=tablerows[rowIndex+1].find_elements_by_tag_name(“td”)
return tableDefinitons[colIndex].get_attribute(“innerText”)

#Will execute before the execution of each test method
def setUp(self):
pass

# will execute once before it executes any test methods
def setUpClass(cls):
pass
#will execute after the execution of each test method
def tearDown(self):
pass
# will execute after it executes all the test methods.
def tearDownClass(cls):
pass

No captcha or image can’t be automated.

We will use PIP command to install selenium
Pip install selenium Version_Nos

list is mutuable while tuple is not mutuable.

pass means no operation to be done

using int(“23″) to convert to int.
str(23) to convert to string

try,except and finally key word is used to handle the exception

try:
#code
except: #catches the exception
finally: #executes the block whether any exception is raised or not.

integer,string,float and complex are the supported data types in python

Method Resolution order is used in inheritance concepts
where class is inheriting multiple class and in all the parent class, same method is defined. Child class is confused which method to call during run time. So the MRO helps to resolve the issue.

we can make use of the get_attribute method to get web element from list of web elements.

for control in controls:
if control.get_attribute(“attributename”)==”attributeValue”:
#found the matching control

LinkText will return element which exact match of given text.
partial link text will return which include the given text.

driver.execute_script(script)
above method will execute the java script.

* driver.find_element_by_id(“val”).send_keys(“valuetoebeentered”)

* other is using Action Class
act=ActionChains(driver)
act.send_keys_to_element(control,”Valuetobeenterd”)

xpath is used to find the web element in webpage.

single slash is start selection from the document node.
double slash is start selection from anywhere in the document.

* webdriver exception
* noalertPresent Exception
* nosuchwindow Exception
*nosuchelement exception
*timeoutexception

act=ActionChains(driver)
act.double_click(control)
Above method will be used to double click on the control.

getWindowHAndle()- it is used to get address of the the current browser where the control is and return type is string.

getwindowshandles()- it is used to get the address of the all open browser and its return type is set<string>

we can use “switch_to_window” method to switch between the multiple windows. where in argument we would be sending the address of the window in the form of string.

we can verify the window title to see if the we have switched to correct window or not.

driver.switch_to_window(“windowname”)
if driver.title==”ttileNAme”:
#switched to correct window

Framework defines a set of rules or best practices which we can follow in systematic way to achieve the desired results.

* Data Driven Framework
* Key Driven Framework
* Hybrid Framework

To achieve this type of issue we can pass username and pwd with URL
http://username:password@url

driver.current_url returns the current url of the browser

>use str() inbuilt function in python

> Slicing is used to fetch a specific range of items from sequence types like list, tuple, Strings etc

i = 6
while (i==6):
print(“Value of i is”+i)
> ‘value of 1 is 6’ and program will not stop

> 0

While(a<=5):
if(a<0): break; if(a==5): bool = False if(bool): a = a + 1 else: a = a – 1 print(“*”*a)

Q56) Does python support Multiple inheritence” open=”no” style=”default” icon=”plus” anchor=”” class=””]

> Yes

1. find_element_by_xpath
2. find_element_by_id
3. find_elements_by_name
4. find_element_by_partial_link_text
5. find_element_by_link_text

4. webdriver.Chrome
> 1

Len(list)

While(a<5):
val = 0
while(val<=a): val = val +1 strprint = str(a) print(str(val), end = “”) a = a + 1 print()

In implicit wait we define specific amount of wait time in the beginning of the test .So it direct the web driver to wait till that time before throwing an exception.

Xpath,css,id classname,linktext,name

• navigate().back()

This command requires no parameter from the user and it lets the user to take back the user to the previous webpage with the reference to the browsing history

• navigate().forward()

This command helps the user to nagigate to the next webpage depending on the browsing history

• navigate().refresh()

This command will help to refresh the currently using webpage ,hence it will reload all the web  elements.

• navigate().to()

This command helps to launch a new window and let the user to navigate to the required URL

Rather than scattering the objects in the script ,it helps to store all the object in centralized location .

• Timeout Exception
• NoAlertPresentException
• NoSuchWindowException
• NoSuchElementException
• WebDriverException

• Reading from external files will not be possible
• Conditional statement execution will not be possible
• Exception handling will not be possible
• Ide uses only HTML language
• Reading from external database is not possible

Making a logical block using a group of individual statement

range()  helps to iterate over a sequence of number.

It is  a string operation  to extract a part of string  or the list

Functions which returns an iteratable set of items are called generators.

The namespace that contain multiple modules called python package

Wrapping the data and code together in a single unit called Encapsulation

• JUnit
• TestNG

By using getCurrentURL()

To delete cookies , use the command deleteAllCookies()

To perform unit testing Framework ‘unittest’ is using.

Tuple is an immutable built-in datatype used to store value in a sequence.

Yes ,Python language run directly from the source code.

The main four parameter that we should passed in selenium are

• URL
• Browser
• Port Number
• Host

We use getwindowhandles() especially to getting all the address of whatever browser we opened and it return all the data in string

And getwindowhandle() is used to get the address of current browser where the control is and also return the data in string

• First we need to select “toggle breakpoint “by right clicking the command in the Selenium IDE
• Then, press B on the keyboard and select the command

Distributed tests across multiple machine

It is used to transform multiple lists into single list by taking the corresponding elements of lists that are passed as parameter.

The method of extraction of large amount of data from website and store it to the local machine

We need to use ‘Unicode’ before the string

Eg:Unicode(data)
