 1. What is the difference between Assert and Verify.<\/strong><\/b> <\/b><\/b><\/h3>\n

Assert:<\/strong> If the condition fails, then the test will be terminated. There will not be further execution of the test step<\/p>\n

Verify:<\/strong> If the condition fails, Execution will continue as normally there will be error logs. Execution will not be terminated.<\/p>\n

2. What are Hard and Soft Asserts in selenium<\/strong><\/b>?<\/b><\/b><\/h3>\n

Hard Assert: Hard assert throws the exception as soon as the condition fails and execution for the current test case will be stopped and continues with the next test case execution.<\/p>\n

Soft Assert: Soft Assert doesn\u2019t throw an exception when the condition fails.<\/p>\n

(Note: Question 1 and Question 2 are mostly the same the way asked is different)<\/p>\n

3. What is the Action Class in Selenium<\/strong><\/b>?<\/b><\/b><\/h3>\n

Action classes provide the ability to simulate mouse and keyboard events. Example Mousehover, Drag and drop, etc.<\/p>\n

Actions action = new Actions(driver);<\/p>\n

action.moveToElement(element).click().perform();<\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

4. How can I switch to Multiple Windows in Selenium?<\/strong><\/b><\/b><\/b><\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Selenium supports working with Multiple Tabs and Windows. switchTo() method is mainly used for Switching between Tabs or windows.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    ArrayList<String> newTab = new ArrayList<String>(driver.getWindowHandles());<\/p>\n

    \/\/switch to new tab<\/p>\n

    driver.switchTo().window(newTab.get(1));<\/p>\n

    5. How to handle alerts pop up in Selenium?<\/strong><\/b><\/b><\/b><\/h3>\n

    driver.switchTo().alert() is used for Switching to Browser Alert.<\/p>\n

    Accept Alert :<\/strong><\/p>\n

    driver.switchTo().alert().accept();<\/p>\n

    Dismiss Alert:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    driver.switchTo().alert().dismiss();<\/p>\n

                  Get Text: <\/strong><\/p>\n

    driver.switchTo().alert().getText();<\/p>\n

    Type Text: <\/strong><\/p>\n

    driver.switchTo().alert().sendKeys(“Text”);<\/p>\n

    6. Explain Javascript Executor in Selenium.<\/strong><\/b><\/b><\/h3>\n

    Javascript executor helps to execute Javascript on the browser. Sometimes the default simulation events might not work click(), getText(), etc. Using Javascript executor we can make it work.<\/p>\n

    Example:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;<\/p>\n

    js.executeScript(“document.getElementByID(‘element id ‘).click();”);<\/p>\n

    7. Can I Create a Selenium Java framework without using TestNG<\/strong><\/b>?<\/b><\/b><\/h3>\n

    TestNG and Selenium are two different things, TestNG helps us to manage Assertions, Reporters and makes things easier for creating the complete framework. We can use other frameworks like Junit to create Selenium Framework. <\/b><\/p>\n

    8. Explain breifly idDisplayeD() isSelected() and IsEnabled command<\/strong><\/b>?<\/b><\/b><\/h3>\n

    IsDisplayed():<\/strong> This method verifies element is present in the DOM tree and it is displayed. Returns true if displayed else returns false.<\/p>\n

    isSelected():<\/strong> This method is mainly used for radio buttons, checkboxes, or options in a menu. This helps to verify if an element is selected status. If selected returns true else returns false.<\/p>\n

    isEnabled() :<\/strong> This method is used To verify if an element is enabled or disabled on a web page. Returns “true” if an element is enabled and returns “false” if an element is disabled. Mainly used for button elements, locked\/disabled text input elements.<\/p>\n

    9. <\/b>What is the main disadvantage of implicit wait?<\/strong><\/b><\/b><\/h3>\n

    Implicit wait works at the driver level, once you set it wait will be applicable for the whole set of tests, which might slow down the test. Whereas explicit wait works at the element level at it is applicable only for that element. <\/b><\/p>\n

    10. Explain how do you Create a driver instance for Firefox, Chrome, Edge, Safari, and IE<\/strong><\/b>?<\/b><\/b><\/h3>\n

    Creating Driver Instance for Chrome on Windows:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    System.setProperty(“webdriver.chrome.driver”, “path of driver”);<\/p>\n

    WebDriver driver=new ChromeDriver();<\/p>\n

    Creating Driver Instance for Firefox on Windows:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    System.setProperty(“webdriver.gecko.driver”,Path_of_Firefox_Driver”);<\/p>\n

    WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();<\/p>\n

    Creating Driver Instance for Safari on Mac:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    WebDriver driver = new SafariDriver(); <\/p>\n

    Creating Driver Instance for Edge on Windows:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    System.setProperty(“webdriver.edge.driver”, “C:\/\/EdgeDriver.exe”);<\/p>\n

     WebDriver driver = new EdgeDriver();<\/p>\n

    11. What is the difference between getWindowhandles() and getwindowhandle()<\/strong>?<\/b><\/b><\/b><\/h3>\n

    driver.getWindowHandles()<\/strong> \u2013 Returns set of window handles for all the pages opened simultaneously.<\/p>\n

    driver.getWindowHandle()<\/strong> – Returns  window handle of the web page which is in focus<\/p>\n

    12. From your test script how you can create HTML test report<\/strong><\/b>?<\/b><\/b><\/h3>\n

    Selenium doesn\u2019t provide any options to create HTML report, however, if we are using TestNG or Junit we can create one.<\/p>\n

    TestNG: TestNG supports default emailable HTML reports we can use that.<\/p>\n

    ANT also provides some form of HTML report.<\/p>\n

    13. How to automate Select Dropdown in Selenium<\/strong><\/b><\/b>?<\/b><\/h3>\n

    Select select =new Select(driver.findElement(By.id(“cars”)));<\/p>\n

    select.selectByVisibleText(“Honda”)<\/p>\n

    14. What is Selenium Grid<\/strong><\/b>?<\/b><\/b><\/h3>\n
      \n
    • Selenium Grid is used for the execution of WebDriver scripts on remote machines (virtual or real)<\/li>\n
    • Selenium Grid allows us to run tests in parallel on multiple machines, and to manage different browser versions and browser configurations centrally<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                  DevTools devTool = driver.getDevTools();<\/p>\n

                    devTool.createSession();<\/p>\n

                    devTool.send(Network.enable(Optional.empty(), Optional.empty(), Optional.empty()));<\/p>\n

                    devTool.addListener(Network.requestWillBeSent(), requestSent -> {<\/p>\n

                          System.out.println(“Request URL => ” + requestSent.getRequest().getUrl());<\/p>\n

                          System.out.println(“Request Method => ” + requestSent.getRequest().getMethod());<\/p>\n

                          System.out.println(“Request Headers => ” + requestSent.getRequest().getHeaders().toString());<\/p>\n

                          System.out.println(“——————————————————“);<\/p>\n

                    });<\/p>\n
