How To Handle Google Search Functionality In Selenium With Java

[@naveenautomationlabs]

Thanks for covering it. In utility function, better to pass By locator and String option (that needs to be clicked) and let the function create the List. TestClass/main() method just needs to maintain the By locators. public static void Search(By searchField, By suggestions, String searchKey, String suggName) { driver.findElement(searchField).sendKeys(searchKey); List suggList = driver.findElements(suggestions); System.out.println(suggList.size()); for (WebElement e : suggList) { String text = e.getText(); System.out.println(text); if (text.contains(suggName)) { e.click(); break; } } }

Thank you Naveen bhai, yes it was quick video so could not add all variations. We can overload this methods with different signature.

Last week, I searched for the same functionality, and I went through Naveen Bhai's video. I found it a bit difficult to write XPath for findelements. Somehow, I have completed work, but today, you made my life easy, Mukesh. You showed how simple we can write the XPath.

Glad it helped Nayab bhai. Keep Learning.

For search functionality automation, if data is not found it will throw nosuchelementexception ,so do we need to handle it and how?

[@Mukeshotwani]

Hi Jino, you can add 1 extra check if list size is 0 then dont execute. FindElements will always returns List no exception. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYGmqaCIirtod5I

Thanks @Mukeshotwani😊,i had a functionality developed long back of adding a data with multiple fields in application.i created positive and negative test cases for those fields but once it was stable,i created a regression test case having a positive flow.But recently a prod issue came where user entered a negative data and didnt get the validation errror,Since negative testing we wont cover as a regression test case and it was missed in every regression cycle.So how to handle such scenarios?

[@vipulpatil9151]

I am facing an issue where, after inputting eg-'Mukesh Otwani' in the search bar, the auto-suggestion dropdown disappears during inspection, making it difficult to capture the XPath for dynamic suggestions.what is the solution for that

[@Mukeshotwani]

Hi Vipul, you can use debugger for the same. You can also use Selectorshub which can enable debugger. Here is the quick video for the same kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXnSdX2Xist9rtk
