How to use TemporaryFilesystem class of org.openqa.selenium.io package

The behaviour is intended. Here is how it works -

1. You issue driver.get(B). It triggers the browser to open the webpage and then it doesnt have anything to do with the browser, so it doesnt care whether an alert is open or not.
2. When the page loads, pop-up dialog appears, but nothing happens on your code side or Eclipse.
3. When you try to perform another operation, it interacts with browser and sees an unexpected popup dialog.

Now, the problem occurs that modal dialog closes and still exception occurs, so try the following.

1. Enclose your second operation in a try/catch and handle UnhandledAlertException
2. Inside that catch block, perform, driver -> switch to -> alert -> accept
3. After the catch block, perform the second operation again.

Add this to the options you pass to the driver:

options.addArguments("disable-infobars");

As per Can't compile Java9 module with selenium-java as dependency it seems the Selenium packages can't be compiled with Java 9 due to split packages and till May 15, 2018 Selenium wasn't fully compatible with Java 9.

But as per this comment @Jarob22 mentioned, Selenium works just fine using Java 10. Java 9 is already eol and there's not much point adding extra stuff to try and support just it if 10 works.

But with the landing of e57914a Simon introduced us with basic JPMS support. With this availability (mhomnag/selenium-java10-reproducer@bc63889) now actually builds but you may have to Remove the WebDriverWaiter and just use a sleep for now.

Java 11

As you are using java.version: '11.0.1', selenium-server-standalone-3.141.59.jar is still not compatible with Java 11. But once Java 11 ships and Buck supports it the toolchain witll be rejiged to support Java 11.

Solution

The strategic solution will be to install the latest version of JDK 8u212 and execute the @Tests

I don't think barak manos's answer has fully explained it.

Imagine we have few elements as the followings:

1. <div class="value test"></div>
2. <div class="value test "></div>
3. <div class="first value test last"></div>
4. <div class="test value"></div>

How XPath matches

• Match only 1 (exact match), barak's answer

  driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[@class='value test']"));
  

• Match 1, 2 and 3 (match class contains value test, class order matters)

  driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[contains(@class, 'value test')]"));
  

• Match 1, 2, 3 and 4 (as long as elements have class value and test)

  driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[contains(@class, 'value') and contains(@class, 'test')]"));
  

Also, in cases like this, Css Selector is always in favor of XPath (fast, concise, native).

• Match 1

  driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("div[class='value test']"));
  

• Match 1, 2 and 3

  driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("div[class*='value test']"));
  

• Match 1, 2, 3 and 4

  driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("div.value.test"));
  

The best answer to this question is here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/32278904/349169

WebElement elementOldPage = driver.findElement(By.id("yourid"));

... do login etc ...

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.stalenessOf(elementOldPage));

WebElement elementNewPage = driver.findElement(By.id("yourid"));

Below are steps:

1. Options->Format -> select format of your choice eg. junit/testng/isfw
2. Go to Source tab.

To export test case in specific format use

File->Export Test Case As -> select format

One of the useful feature of Selenium IDE is, it provide option to set clipboard format so that you can copy commands form table view and paste in format of your choice of language.

Options->Clipboard Format -> set format

Here is the selenium IDE documentation.

The HTTP client was switched to okhttp: http://square.github.io/okhttp/

This is mentioned in the Selenium Java CHANGELOG of version 3.11.0 and also you can see it in the source code.

Well, the problem is that this XPath Expression won't find you an element, but instead you've selected some text.

That is, what the error message also tells you: The given selector [...] does not result in a WebElement.

You've asked for .//*[@id='content']/p[4]/text()[1] which ends in the function /text() which selects not a node, but the text of it. I'm not exactly sure what /text()[1] does but assume it will select the second character in that text. At least I think it's safe to assume that it won't magically convert the text to an DOM Element.

WebDriver however assumes that your expression results in a DOM Element it can represent as a WebElement. This expression does not and thus it throws the expression.

As a hint, you should open the web page and use a tool to manually check your XPath when in doubt. I use Firebug with the FirePath AddOn for this, but you're free to use whatever you find useful.

I think that the XPath should be "//ul/li[1]". In selenium the first item is 1, not 0. Look here
