WebDriver interface provides number of methods to
locate elements in a web page. You can locate an element by using class name,
id, name, linktext etc., In this post, I am going to explain how to locate an
element using name attribute of an element. Since this is not a web application tutorial, I am not
going to explain how to setup the web application.
I am going to populate username, password fields
using WebDriver instance and submit the form. Following is the login.jsp page,
I am going to submit.
login.jsp
<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" pageEncoding="UTF-8"%> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> <title>Insert title here</title> </head> <body> <h1>Login Page</h1> <form method="post" action="loginCheck"> <table> <tr> <td>UserName :</td> <td><input type="text" name="userName" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Password</td> <td><input type="password" name="password" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type="reset" value="Clear" /></td> <td><input type="submit" value="submit" /></td> </tr> </table> </form> </body> </html>
How to populate username field?
Observe the login.jsp
file. ‘input’ element has a name ‘userName’ associated with it.
<input
type="text" name="userName" />
You can populate the
username textbox, by accessing the element by name. Following Java snippet is
used to populate username field. ‘driver.findElement(…) method is used to
locate a UI element. By class is used to locate elements within a document
WebElement userNameElement =
driver.findElement(By.name("userName"));
userNameElement.sendKeys("HariKrishna");
Same in the case of
password field also. Following snippet is used to populate password field.
WebElement passwordElement =
driver.findElement(By.name("password"));
passwordElement.sendKeys("password123");
After populating the
fields, you can submit the form by using any WebElement instance.
userNameElement.submit();
(OR)
passwordElement.submit();
Following is the
complete working application.
import org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement; import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver; public class App { public static void main(String[] args) { WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(); driver.get("http://localhost:8080/application/getLoginPage"); WebElement userNameElement = driver.findElement(By.name("userName")); WebElement passwordElement = driver.findElement(By.name("password")); userNameElement.sendKeys("HariKrishna"); passwordElement.sendKeys("password123"); passwordElement.submit(); } }
