Quick Code - How to right click an element and select menu option with selenium

Using action, we can perform right click(context click) operation on an object in selenium and also select the menu option using Arrows.down key press as shown in the code below:

Quick Code:

public static void contextMenuSelection(WebElement webElem, int iOption)
      {
 //create an instance of actions class
       Actions action = new Actions(driver); 
 //context click (right click) the element
       action.contextClick(webElem);
       for(int i =1;i<=iOption;i++) 
       {
     //Press send keys for arrow down
        action.sendKeys(Keys.ARROW_DOWN);
       }
 //Press Enter send keys and build and perform the action.
       action.sendKeys(Keys.ENTER).build().perform();
      }

Quick Codes- Validating element existence in Selenium Wedriver

In this article, one of the way to validate existence of multiple objects of same object type based on element text in the application is explained using Selenium Webdriver with java. Please share other better way to verify element existence using Selenium Webdriver.

public boolean IsElementExists(String ObjectType, String strElemText)
{
 boolean boolElemExists = false;
//In case of multiple objects which needs to be validated, Provide multiple objects
// text seperated by  | in strElemText. e.g: strElemText as "mail|inbox"
// Create an array by splitting array based on delimiter "|"
 String[] elemTextArray = strElemText.split("|");
// Loop through array elements
 for ( int j = 0;j<elemTextArray.length;j++)
 {
  List<WebElement> lstElement = null;
  try
// Better approach will be to pass values from enum for Object type
   switch (ObjectType)
   {
   // in case of link object storing all the elements of type link in lstElement
   case "Link":
     lstElement = driver.findElements(By.tagName("a")); 
    break;
    // in case of link object storing all the elements of type link in label
   case "Label":
    lstElement = driver.findElements(By.tagName("label")); 
    break;
   }
   for (int i=0;i<lstElement.size();i++)
   {
    if (lstElement.get(i).getText().contentEquals(strElemText.trim()))
      {
       boolElemExists = true;
       i= lstElement.size()-1;
      }
   }
   if (boolElemExists = false)
   {
    return false;
   }
   }
  catch(Exception e)
  {
   return false;
  }
 }
 return boolElemExists;
}

Quick Codes -How to highlight element using Selenium WebDriver

This code snippet shows one of the way to highlight an element using JavaScript executor in Selenium WebDriver. Please share your inputs on other ways to highlight an element using Selenium.

package testingqaautomation; 

import org.junit.Test;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;  
import org.openqa.selenium.JavascriptExecutor;  
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;  
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;  
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;  
 
 public class HighlightWithJE {  
      static WebDriver driver; 
      @Test
      public void Testing() throws InterruptedException {  
  // Connect to the firefox driver server 
  driver = new FirefoxDriver(); 
  //maximise the browser   
  driver.manage().window().maximize();   
  //Navigate to the application, change url to a valid url
  driver.navigate().to("https://www.seleniumbites.blogspot.com");  
  //find element to highlight, select a valid element
  WebElement linkElem = driver.findElement(By.linkText("Gmail"));  
  //create instance of javascript executor
  JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver; 
  //highlight the element to green color and wait
  //for 3 sec and then click the element
  js.executeScript("arguments[0].setAttribute('style','border: solid 8px green')", linkElem);   
  Thread.sleep(3000);  
  js.executeScript("arguments[0].setAttribute('style', arguments[1]);", linkElem, "");  
  linkElem.click();            
      } 
}
