Information about web elements

What you can learn about an element.

There are a number of details you can query about a specific element.

Is Displayed

This method is used to check if the connected Element is displayed on a webpage. Returns a Boolean value, True if the connected element is displayed in the current browsing context else returns false.

This functionality is mentioned in, but not defined by the w3c specification due to the impossibility of covering all potential conditions. As such, Selenium cannot expect drivers to implement this functionality directly, and now relies on executing a large JavaScript function directly. This function makes many approximations about an element’s nature and relationship in the tree to return a value.

//navigates to url
 driver.get("https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/web/inputs.html")

 //returns true if element is displayed else returns false
 val flag = driver.findElement(By.name("email_input")).isDisplayed()

Is Enabled

This method is used to check if the connected Element is enabled or disabled on a webpage. Returns a boolean value, True if the connected element is enabled in the current browsing context else returns false.

//navigates to url
driver.get("https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/web/inputs.html")

//returns true if element is enabled else returns false
val attr = driver.findElement(By.name("button_input")).isEnabled()

Elemento está selecionado

Este método determina se o elemento referenciado é Selected ou não. Este método é amplamente utilizado em caixas de seleção, botões de opção, elementos de entrada e elementos de opção.

Retorna um valor booleano, true se o elemento referenciado for selected no contexto de navegação atual, caso contrário, retorna false.

 //navigates to url
 driver.get("https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/web/inputs.html")

 //returns true if element is checked else returns false
 val attr =  driver.findElement(By.name("checkbox_input")).isSelected()

Coletar TagName do elemento

É usado para buscar o TagName do elemento referenciado que tem o foco no contexto de navegação atual.

//navigates to url
driver.get("https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/web/inputs.html")

//returns TagName of the element
val attr =  driver.findElement(By.name("email_input")).getTagName()

Coletar retângulo do elemento

É usado para buscar as dimensões e coordenadas do elemento referenciado.

O corpo de dados buscado contém os seguintes detalhes:

  • Posição do eixo X a partir do canto superior esquerdo do elemento
  • posição do eixo y a partir do canto superior esquerdo do elemento
  • Altura do elemento
  • Largura do elemento
// Navigate to url
driver.get("https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/web/inputs.html")

// Returns height, width, x and y coordinates referenced element
val res = driver.findElement(By.name("range_input")).rect

// Rectangle class provides getX,getY, getWidth, getHeight methods
println(res.getX())

Coletar valor CSS do elemento

Recupera o valor da propriedade de estilo computado especificada de um elemento no contexto de navegação atual.

// Navigate to Url
driver.get("https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/web/colorPage.html")

// Retrieves the computed style property 'color' of linktext
val cssValue = driver.findElement(By.id("namedColor")).getCssValue("background-color")

Coletar texto do elemento

Recupera o texto renderizado do elemento especificado.

// Navigate to URL
driver.get("https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/web/linked_image.html")

// retrieves the text of the element
val text = driver.findElement(By.id("justanotherlink")).getText()

Fetching Attributes or Properties

Fetches the run time value associated with a DOM attribute. It returns the data associated with the DOM attribute or property of the element.

// Navigate to URL
driver.get("https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/web/inputs.html")

//fetch the value property associated with the textbox
val attr = driver.findElement(By.name("email_input")).getAttribute("value")
