    Study Notes

    Selenium WebDriver API Essentials

    • Import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver to use the Selenium WebDriver API.
    • Elements in WebDriver are located using the findElement() and findElements() methods.
    • To navigate forward in WebDriver, use the navigate().forward() method.

    Exception Handling

    • When using explicit waits, catch TimeoutException to handle when elements take too long to appear.

    Wait Types

    • Implicit waits are used to define a default waiting time for elements to appear before throwing an exception.
    • Implicit waits can be set using driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait().

    Driver Details

    • The specific driver in use depends on the setup (e.g., ChromeDriver, FirefoxDriver).
    • The expected title of the Mercury Tours homepage is typically "Welcome: Mercury Tours".
    • The actual title can vary; it needs to be verified through actual execution.

    URL and Methods

    • The value of the baseUrl variable usually corresponds to the homepage URL of the application being tested.
    • The get() method in WebDriver is used to navigate to a specified URL.

    Element Manipulation

    • The tag name of a specific element can be extracted using the getTagName() method.
    • To find elements by the 'class' attribute, use findElements(By.className()).
    • Locate elements by their tag name using findElements(By.tagName()).
    • Simulate clicking on an element with the click() method.
    • The current page title can be fetched using getTitle().

    Window and Frame Management

    • To close all windows, including pop-ups, use quit().
    • Switch to a specific frame using switchTo().frame().
    • Access the message of an alert box through switchTo().alert().getText().

    Wait Declarations

    • Explicit waits are typically declared during the instantiation of the WebDriver.
    • Import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait for implementing explicit waits.
    • For implicit waits, org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver must be imported.

    Method Functions

    • The get() method serves to load a new web page in the current browser window.
    • The close() method only closes the current window, unlike quit(), which closes all associated windows.
    • Using System.exit(0) without closing all browser windows may lead to unexpected behavior since it terminates the JVM without gracefully closing WebDriver sessions.

    Element Location and Exceptions

    • Use findElement() to locate GUI elements. It throws NoSuchElementException if the element does not exist.
    • WebDriverWait will throw a TimeoutException if the element does not appear within the specified timeout.
    • driver.get() directly loads a webpage, while driver.navigate() offers additional navigation features (back, forward, refresh).
    • Both the forward and backward buttons can be used with driver.navigate(), whereas with driver.get(), they won't function as expected between pages once the page is loaded.
