How to use isUsingPlainLogs method of org.openqa.selenium.grid.log.LoggingOptions class

Take a look at the section about filling in forms using webdriver in the selenium documentation and the javadoc for the Select class.

To select an option based on the label:

Select select = new Select(driver.findElement(By.xpath("//path_to_drop_down")));
select.deselectAll();
select.selectByVisibleText("Value1");

To get the first selected value:

WebElement option = select.getFirstSelectedOption()

The dialog is treated as an alert by selenium. In c#, the code to enter in credentials for a Firefox test looks like:

// Inputs id with permissions into the Windows Authentication box
var alert = driver.SwitchTo().Alert();
alert.SendKeys( @"username" + Keys.Tab + 
                @"password" + Keys.Tab);
alert.Accept();

The first line is telling the driver to check for open alerts (the dialog box).

The second line sends the username and password to the alert

The third line then sends those credentials and, assuming they are valid, the test will continue.

Assuming you are testing using Firefox, there is no requirement to use extra frameworks to deal with this authentication box.

I had been running into this same problem for a few days and it seems that it is actually an issue with chromedriver. The solution that worked for me was to add the following flag/argument to your chromedriver options:

--disable-site-isolation-trials

Here is the chromedriver issue (and solution) I'm referring to.

If the flag does not work, you may also try upgrading to chromedriver v75

You can also do like this

    WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

    waitForDriverToClose(driver);

waitForDriverToClose

private static void waitForDriverToClose(WebDriver driver) {
        try {
            WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 20);
            wait.until(ExpectedConditions.not(new ExpectedCondition<Boolean>() {
                @Override
                public Boolean apply(WebDriver driver) {
                    try {
                        driver.getTitle();
                        return true;
                    } catch (Exception ex) {
                        System.out.println("Couldn't Connect Driver / Driver Closed");
                        return false;
                    }
                }
            }));
        } catch (org.openqa.selenium.TimeoutException ex) {
            System.out.println("Timeout Trying Again");
            waitForDriverToClose(driver);
        }
    }

They are not the same.

appDriver.findElement(By.xpath("//UIATableCell[2]")).findElement(By.xpath("//UIAStaticText[4]"));

Here, you are searching for //UIAStaticText[4] anywhere, at any level in the entire DOM tree:

When using xpath be aware that webdriver follows standard conventions: a search prefixed with "//" will search the entire document, not just the children of this current node. Use ".//" to limit your search to the children of this WebElement.

While //UIATableCell[2]/UIAStaticText[4] would search among the direct children of //UIATableCell[2] only.

This error message...

org.openqa.selenium.ElementClickInterceptedException: element click intercepted: Element <label _ngcontent-yrc-c26="" formcontrolname="reportingDealPermission" nz-checkbox="" class="ant-checkbox-wrapper ng-untouched ng-pristine ng-valid" ng-reflect-name="reportingDealPermission">...</label> is not clickable at point (161, 562). Other element would receive the click: <div _ngcontent-yrc-c26="" class="footer">...</div>

...implies that the click on the desired element was intercepted by some other element.

Clicking an element

Ideally, while invoking click() on any element you need to induce WebDriverWait for the elementToBeClickable() and you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

• cssSelector:

  new WebDriverWait(getWebDriver(), 10).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.cssSelector("label[formcontrolname=reportingDealPermission][ng-reflect-name=reportingDealPermission]"))).click();
  

• xpath:

  new WebDriverWait(getWebDriver(), 10).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("//label[@formcontrolname='reportingDealPermission' and @ng-reflect-name='reportingDealPermission']"))).click();
  

Update

After changing to headless if it still doesn't works and still get exception there still a couple of other measures to consider as follows:

• Chrome browser in Headless mode doesn't opens in maximized mode. So you have to use either of the following commands/arguments to maximize the headless browser Viewport:

  • Adding the argument start-maximized

    ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
    options.addArguments("--headless");
    options.addArguments("start-maximized");
    WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
    

  • Adding the argument --window-size

    ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
    options.addArguments("--headless");
    options.addArguments("--window-size=1400,600");
    WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
    

  • Using setSize()

    ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
    options.addArguments("--headless");
    WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
    driver.manage().window().setSize(new Dimension(1440, 900));
    

You can find a detailed discussion in Not able to maximize Chrome Window in headless mode

• Additionally, you can also wait for the intercept element to be invisible using the ExpectedConditions invisibilityOfElementLocated before attempting the click() as follows:

  • cssSelector:

    new WebDriverWait(getWebDriver(), 10).until(ExpectedConditions.invisibilityOfElementLocated(By.cssSelector("div.footer")));
    new WebDriverWait(getWebDriver(), 10).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.cssSelector("label[formcontrolname=reportingDealPermission][ng-reflect-name=reportingDealPermission]"))).click();
    

  • xpath:

    new WebDriverWait(getWebDriver(), 10).until(ExpectedConditions.invisibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//div[@class='footer']")));
    new WebDriverWait(getWebDriver(), 10).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("//label[@formcontrolname='reportingDealPermission' and @ng-reflect-name='reportingDealPermission']"))).click();

No, entered values are not shown in the html. To get the entered value you need to use getAttribute() method

String query = searchQuery.getAttribute("value");

I would simply disable the print dialog by overriding the print method :

((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript("window.print=function(){};");

But if you goal is to test that the printing is called then :

// get the print button
WebElement print_button = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("..."));

// click on the print button and wait for print to be called
driver.manage().timeouts().setScriptTimeout(20, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeAsyncScript(
    "var callback = arguments[1];" +
    "window.print = function(){callback();};" +
    "arguments[0].click();"
    , print_button);

You can easily accomplish this task with CSS.

The formula is:

element[attribute='attribute-value']

So if you have,

<a href="mysite.com"></a>

You can find it using:

By.cssSelector("a[href='mysite.com']");

this works using any attribute possible.
