How to use getConfig method of org.openqa.selenium.remote.http.RemoteCall class

#getText()

getText() delivers the innerText of a WebElement.

Your input field does not have any inner Text. The text is found inside your value-attribute, hence accessing it via getAttribute("value") is the correct way to do it.

First try running on the command line by forcing an update.

mvn clean install -U

If that fails, try the same after removing your local repository and check the contents of your ~/.m2/settings.xml file and let us know if there is anything in there.

And then if that still fails .. see if you can ping the Maven repository. (repo1.maven.apache.org).

This is how I got it to work finally !!

 driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("label[for='surveyForm\\:surveyUrlType\\:1']")).click()

Use findElements instead of findElement.

findElements will return an empty list if no matching elements are found instead of an exception.

To check that an element is present, you could try this

Boolean isPresent = driver.findElements(By.yourLocator).size() > 0

This will return true if at least one element is found and false if it does not exist.

The official documentation recommends this method:

findElement should not be used to look for non-present elements, use findElements(By) and assert zero length response instead.

I got it to work with Firefox webdriver by the following:

profile.SetPreference("network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris", "google.com");
driver = new FirefoxDriver(profile);

driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("http://user:pwd@google.com");

You can set the useAutomationExtension capability to false.

    ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
    options.setExperimentalOption("useAutomationExtension", false);
    WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);

This capability will help to not load Chrome Automation extension. Due to which, "Failed to load extension" popup would not appear.

But please note you will not be able to perform any window resizing/positioning operations without the Chrome automation extension.

Hope this helps!

Use this when you run your code on a local machine:

private WebDriver driver = null;

public void open() throws Exception
{
    driver = new FirefoxDriver();
}

And this when you run your code on a remote server:

private WebDriver driver = null;

public void openHeadless() throws Exception
{
    FirefoxBinary binary = new FirefoxBinary(new File("/usr/local/bin/firefox"));
    binary.setEnvironmentProperty("DISPLAY",System.getProperty("lmportal.xvfb.id",":99"));
    driver = new FirefoxDriver(binary,null);
}

If you replace

//Update the value of cell
cell = sheet.getRow(row).getCell(col);
cell.setCellValue("Pass");

With

//Retrieve the row and check for null
HSSFRow sheetrow = sheet.getRow(row);
if(sheetrow == null){
    sheetrow = sheet.createRow(row);
}
//Update the value of cell
cell = sheetrow.getCell(col);
if(cell == null){
    cell = sheetrow.createCell(col);
}
cell.setCellValue("Pass");

It will work!

Try something like this:

 WebElement parentEle = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[@class='atb-delivery-accordions']"));

 WebElement descriptionEle = parentEle.findElement(By.tagName("p"));

 //Get the text from the description element.
 String descriptionText = descriptionEle.getText();
