How to use createDefaultService method of org.openqa.selenium.safari.SafariTechPreviewDriverService class

Don't use an alert to display information. Use a framework like TestNG or JUnit to log pass/fails and then look at the logs. You want automation to go as fast as it can. It defeats a lot of the purpose of automation when you require manual intervention or someone watching the script run to see if it passed or not.

Selenium supports org.openqa.selenium.JavascriptExecutor. We can get the value of window.performance.memory.usedJSHeapSize at any stage during testing. Below is the code.

  public static void reportMemoryUsage(WebDriver webDriver, String message) {
    ((JavascriptExecutor) webDriver).executeScript("window.gc()");
    try {
        TimeUnit.SECONDS.sleep(2);
    } catch (InterruptedException e) {
        LOGGER.error(e.getLocalizedMessage());
    }
    Double usedJSHeapSize = (Double) ((JavascriptExecutor) webDriver)
            .executeScript("return window.performance.memory.usedJSHeapSize/1024/1024");
    LOGGER.info("Memory Usage at " + message + " - " + usedJSHeapSize + " MB ");
 }

Call this method from your test suite, one at beginning of the test and one at the end. Difference between two usedJSHeapSize values will give the memory leak.

I am forcing garbage collection before taking usedJSHeapSize, to make sure the there is no garbage information collected. To enable gc function on window, you will have to set the -js-flags=--expose-gc option.

ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("-js-flags=--expose-gc");
WebDriver webDriver = new ChromeDriver(options);

You need to call this (preferably in your constructors):

PageFactory.initElements(getDriver(), this);

There is a very good plugin that can be used with selenium project shadow-automation-selenium. It helps in writing much better, readable and maintainable code. Using this you can access multi level of shadow DOM (upto 4 levels ) . This uses simple css selector to identify elements.

WebElement findElement(String cssSelector) : use this method if want single element from DOM

List<WebElement> findElements(String cssSelector) : use this if you want to find all elements from DOM

WebElement findElements(WebElement parent, String cssSelector) : use this if you want to find a single elements from parent object DOM

List<WebElement> findElements(WebElement parent, String cssSelector) : use this if you want to find all elements from parent object DOM

WebElement getShadowElement(WebElement parent,String selector) : use this if you want to find a single element from parent DOM

List<WebElement> getAllShadowElement(WebElement parent,String selector) : use this if you want to find all elements from parent DOM

boolean isVisible(WebElement element) : use this if you want to find visibility of element

boolean isChecked(WebElement element) : use this if you want to check if checkbox is selected

boolean isDisabled(WebElement element) : use this if you want to check if element is disabled

String getAttribute(WebElement element,String attribute) : use this if you want to get attribute like aria-selected and other custom attributes of elements.

void selectCheckbox(String label) : use this to select checkbox element using label.

void selectCheckbox(WebElement parentElement, String label) : use this to select checkbox element using label.

void selectRadio(String label) : use this to select radio element using label.

void selectRadio(WebElement parentElement, String label) : use this to select radio element from parent DOM using label.

void selectDropdown(String label) : use this to select dropdown list item using label (use this if only one dropdown is present or loaded on UI).

void selectDropdown(WebElement parentElement, String label) : use this to select dropdown list item from parent DOM using label.

How to use this plugin: You will have to dependency in your project.

Maven

<dependency>
  <groupId>io.github.sukgu</groupId>
  <artifactId>automation</artifactId>
  <version>0.0.4</version>
<dependency>

for html tag that resides under a shadow-root dom element

<properties-page id="settingsPage"> 
  <textarea id="textarea">
</properties-page>

You can use this code in your framework to grab the textarea element Object.

  import io.github.sukgu.*;
  Shadow shadow = new Shadow(driver);
  WebElement element = shadow.findElement("properties-page#settingsPage>textarea#textarea");
  String text = element.getText();

You don't need to downgrade or anything. There is a design change in the Java Client version 2.0.0 as they mention on their site:

AppiumDriver is now an abstract class, use IOSDriver and AndroidDriver which both extend it.

So, just change your driver line to be:

dr = new AndroidDriver(new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub"),capabilities);

Hope that helps...

This is just a version mismatch. You have compiled your code using java version 9 and your current JRE is version 8. Try upgrading your JRE to 9.

49 = Java 5
50 = Java 6
51 = Java 7
52 = Java 8
53 = Java 9
54 = Java 10
55 = Java 11
56 = Java 12
57 = Java 13
58 = Java 14
59 = Java 15
60 = Java 16
61 = Java 17
62 = Java 18
63 = Java 19

In a word, no. It's not possible using the Selenium WebDriver API. This has been discussed ad nauseam in the issue tracker for the project, and the feature will not be added to the API.

Just specify the path to the binary of the version..may be, like-

FirefoxBinary binary = new FirefoxBinary(new File("path_to_bin"));
FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile();
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(binary, profile);

There are multiple ways of doing it. Here's an article you might want to have a look.

Test WYSIWYG editors using Selenium WebDriver

• Send keys directly

This approach is the one you have tried and didn't work. Please try make sure your locators to <iframe> and <body> are correct. Otherwise I'd suggest using JavaScriptExecutor for more stable solutions.

• Set innerHTML

WaitTool.waitForElementPresent(Browser.instance, By.className("cke_wysiwyg_frame"), 10);
WebElement iframe = Browser.instance.findElement(By.className("cke_wysiwyg_frame"));
Browser.instance.switchTo().frame(iframe);

WebElement description = Browser.instance.findElement(By.cssSelector("body"));
(JavascriptExecutor)Browser.instance.executeScript("arguments[0].innerHTML = '<h1>Set text using innerHTML</h1>'", description);

• Use CKEditor's native API

// no need to switch iframe
(JavascriptExecutor)Browser.instance.executeScript("CKEDITOR.instances.ckeditor.setData('<h1>Native API text</h1> Editor')");
