Using the Python API, it’s pretty simple: from selenium import webdriver browser = webdriver.Firefox() print browser.binary.process.pid # browser.binary.process is a Popen object… If you’re using Chrome, it’s a little more complex, you go via a chromedriver process: c = webdriver.Chrome() c.service.process # is a Popen instance for the chromedriver process import psutil p = psutil.Process(c.service.process.pid) … Read more
I would trust in Selenium to work out if an element is displayed or not. If it doesn’t work you can raise a bug and/or fix any issues you see and provide a patch. This is what the method does (Taken from the current Selenium source code): /** * Determines whether an element is what … Read more
I ran into a similar issue. The click method worked on other pages, then didn’t work at all on a particular page. A race condition caused the issue: HTML content is rendered with the button disabled. The selenium web driver script was executed before the javascript onload event was triggered (Or finished executing). So the … Read more
Create cookies using the Java API as follows: Cookie ck = new Cookie(“name”, “value”); driver.manage().addCookie(ck); Create cookies using the Python API as follows: driver.add_cookie({‘name’: ‘foo’, ‘value’: ‘bar’})
Nice question buddy…they have written a HTTP proxy to solve the Javascript secuirty restrictions. Using this proxy made it possible to side-step many of the constraints of the “same host origin” policy, where a browser won’t allow Javascript to make calls to anything other than the server from which the current page has been served. … Read more
I got this same error: .NET WebDriver: 2.37, FF: 25.0.1. I noticed that Firefox was locking up until I exited my test application, so I built the debug version of Firefox and found that the lock-up happened when it was writing to stderr. This gave me the clue to change the webdriver code so that … Read more
( ( JavascriptExecutor ) _driver ) .executeScript( “window.onbeforeunload = function(e){};” ); solved the issue for me
(“*”) gives all the child elements of the context node. So use: body.findElement(By.xpath(“*”));
You should be able to get the text using getText() (for the option element you got using getFirstSelectedOption()): Select select = new Select(driver.findElement(By.xpath(“//select”))); WebElement option = select.getFirstSelectedOption(); String defaultItem = option.getText(); System.out.println(defaultItem );
