Selenium Cheat Sheet
Driver Initialization Basics
Firefox - WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver ();
Chrome - WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver ();
Safari - WebDriver driver = new SafariDriver ();
Selenium Locators
By ID - driver.findElement(By.Id("q")).sendKeys("Se lenium 3");
By Name - driver.findElement(By.name("q")).sendKeys ("Selenium 3")
By Xpath - driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@id='q']")).sendKeys("Selenium 3");
Hyperlinks By Link - driver.FindElement(By.LinkText("edit this page")).Click();
Text
By DOM - dom =document.getElementById)'signinForm')
By CSS - driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("#rightbar> .menu >li:nth-of-type(2) >
h4"));
By ClassName - driver.findElement(By.className("profileheader"));
By TagName - driver.findElement(By.tagName("select")).C lick();
By LinkText - driver.findElement(By.linkText("NextP age")).click();
By PartialLinkText - driver.findElement(By.partialLinkText(" NextP")).click();
Selenium Navigators
Navigate to URL - driver.get(“http://newexample.com”)
driver.navigate().to(“http://newexample.com”)
Refresh Page - driver.navigate().refresh()
Navigates forward in - driver.navigate().forward()
browser history
Navigates backward - driver.navigate().back()
in browser history

Windows
When web applications have multiple frames or windows, Selemium assigns each window
a unique ID which is called window handle. This ID is used to switch control among
windows.
String handle=driver.getWindowHandle();
Set<String> handles = getWindowHandles();
driver.switchTo().window(handle);
To switch to a newly created window:
String curWindow=driver.getWindowHandle();
To get all window hanles:
Set<String> handles = getWindowHandles();
For(string handle: handles)
{
If (!handle.equals(curWindow))
{
driver.switchTo().window(handle);
}
}
Frames
Using Frame Index - driver.switchTO().frame(1);
Using Name of Frame - driver.switchTo().frame(“name”)
Using Web element object - driver.switchTO().frame(element);
Get back to main document - driver.switchTO().defaultContent();
Alerts
Capture the alert message - driver.switchTO().alert.getText();
Click on the ‘OK’ button of the alert - driver.switchTO().alert.accept();
Click on the ‘Cancel’ button of the alert - driver.switchTO().alert.dismiss();
Send some data to the alert box - driver.switchTO().alert.sendKeys(“Text”);
02
Operations
Launch Webpage - get("www.webdriverinselenium.com");
Click Button - findElement(By.id("submit")).click();
Handle Alert - AlertAlertpopup = driver.switchTo().alert();
Disable a field - getElementsByName('') [0].setAttribute('disabled', '')
Enable a field - getElementsByName('') [0].removeAttribute('disabled');
Screenshot - File snapshot =
((TakesScreenshot)driver).getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE);
FileUtils.copyFile(snapshot, new File("C:\\screenshot.jpg"));
Print the title of the page - String pagetitle = driver.getTitle();
System.out.print(pagetitle);
Implicit Wait - manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
Explicit Wait - WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 20);
Sleep - Thread.Sleep(10);
Selenium Grid
