ExplicitWait, Take Screenshot and Navigate Back & Forward - Selenium WebDriver Session 7

[@aspp8137]

Hi Naveen, I just attended selenium interview and they asked me to write the code for taking screenshot . Your videos of selenium are superb and easy to understand. Eventhough i am a manual resource and recently i went through your videos and learnt selenium with my own interest and trying to attend interviews where i am gaining my confidence levels to answer. This was the first time i am attending selenium interview ,even though i know basic things i could not remember the code for entire selenium. I am practicing now and referring your videos which gives me boost my confidence. Thank you so much and keep uploading videos on new technologies. I will refer my friends . Hats off to you. No words to say.

[@abhishekcardigan3770]

Hey Archana. How can I get in touch with you? Wanted to ask you about the interviews.

Hi Naveen, thank you so much for your hard work and your valuable time .Really appreciate your time and hard work. Your explanation is very simple and easy to understand. Please keep it up good work bro👏

[@goldfan5523]

Hi Naveen Sir, You taught some methods like Contains(),Starts-With.,Ends-With..in your dynamic xpath creation video and there is one more video of yours on customized xpath in which you covered iterating tables in which you covered preceding-sibling and following-sibling properties. Do you have anymore videos on tables which covers some more properties and is there any way to get rid of StaleElementException Thanks for all your videos :) Thanks in advance

nice explain perfect tutorial for selenium automation

Hi Naveen, small doubt.. Any how implicitly wait is waiting for 40 seconds if explicit wait(5) suppose element is not found. then implicitly wait can handle this right..? Here can u pls elaborate bit more on diff between implicitly wait and explicit wait.. Thanks in advance.

Hi Naveen, Your videos are very nice. Your way of explanation is straight to the point and neat.Thank you so much for sharing ur knowledge. If we declare implicit wait, it is applicable to all elements in the web page.Then what is the purpose of declaring explicit wait?What is the difference between these 2 waits?Kindly reply.Also please make a video on manual testing FAQ's or manual testing imp topics...JMeter and other imp topics.

[@Bharathvlr]

Hi Naveen, Thanks for the classes. I have a doubt. on your 'Navigations' code there was "driver.manage().window().maximize();" but while testing your window didn't get maximized, did any one noticed ? please clarify..

[@sajjanchourasia]

Yes it was not maximized

[@sasirekha5561]

super catch. true tester

Even i had the same doubt..did Naveen reply to your comment

[@sowmyareddy3134]

Hai Naveen, Your videos are great.. I have a question for this video..I understood how to navigate from one webpage to another by using navigate to but how can we open it in a new tab? ie., opening google is my first function and I wanted to open amazon web page in a new page..How can i perform this operation? Please help me out with this question

[@sridhar2127]

What is the difference between implicit wait and explicit wait?

[@shwetapandey2406]

Best videos I saw yet

[@jayantirajesh]

hi naveen..this video is really helpful..now the selenium version has changed right so will be any change in API 's??

[@sandipanmallick6141]

Hi Naveen...Thanks for this video. I am facing one problem. When i'm going back to the previous page using driver.navigate().back() then it's going back to the previous page that is working fine. But if the previous page has s then the previous page loads only the part not the whole page after clicking on browser back button. It's throwing org.openqa.selenium.StaleElementReferenceException. Can you please help me how to resolve this issue?

[@hakimakbary65]

I am not sure but I think if you are following page object model, this pblm will be resolved. I think stale element exception is not thrown when you are using @FindBy to locate your elements (not sure)

[@priyasingh-ko8ki]

vedio is also very good

[@naveenautomationlabs]

Thanks for watching

[@shuchisinha1701]

Hi Naveen, i had started watching your videos.....Please could you send me the link of your code because i want to increase the font-size and to copy the takescreenshot lines.

[@desifoodie8371]

One quetion, here in CLickon fucntion, how we are understanding that the timeout provided is seconds only, in function we have not declared anywhere TimeUnit.seconds .Thanks

[@riteshc56]

Hi Naveen, The page of cities and state is not displayed. but all the videos are really helpful Thanks a lot.

[@aveasphotography]

@5:37 time....When u ran the script and the driver.manager().windows().maximize() line didnt work.....U can still see the window in small size...May i know why that didnt work???

Hi, I am using mac machine. It is giving me error as "Exception in thread "main" java.io.IOException: Destination '/Users⁩/⁨suyog.ratnaparkhi⁩/Downloads⁩/⁨MySelenium⁩/screenshots' directory cannot be created.

[@niteshrawat576]

Hi Naveen, Me once again , hope you dont mind. "33:10" I am getting the "no such element..invalid xpath..." error instead of "waiting for element to be clickable" error. Please help we know why. Thanks.

[@WayToAhlulbayt]

tried this but keep getting error not working for me File src = ((TakesScreenshot) driver).getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE); FileUtils.copyFile(src, new File("C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\selenium classes"));

[@sanchitgandhi7551]

you have to mention file name be it .jpg or .png , anything. So, the updated path for file would be ---> C:\\Users\\Owner\\Desktop\\selenium classes\\google.png

[@manikantar8614]

Sir, while giving explicit wait command, I am getting an error. new WebDriverWait(driver, timeout).ignoring(StaleElementReferenceException.class) Multiple markers at this line - The constructor WebDriverWait(WebDriver, int) is undefined - Line breakpoint:ExplicitwaitConcept [line: 28] - clickOn(WebDriver, WebElement, int)

[@divyadharshini5741]

I am also getting the same error. It is instructing me to change the declaration int to duration. If I change so it is not accepting the value 20 secs.

[@akulabhaskar3797]

Hello Naveen What could be the reason for not getting Exception after 20 Seconds ?

[@praveen420ify]

What do U mean external URL? I mean what is difference between external URL and Normal URL?

Hi Naveen, Thank you so much for the video and one question on this somehow could not able to import FileUtils.copyfile is there any way to fix it ??

[@animadey3267]

you need to download org.apache.commons.io.jar and add in selenium

FileHandler.copy(src, path) will also work

Hi Naveen Sir, i tried your code for screenshot but its not working. the error shows and says -the method copyFile(File, File) in the type FileUtils is not applicable for the arguments (File) FileUtils.copyFile(src,new File(C:\Users\km\eclipse-workspace\seleniumcodespractice\src\demosel1\screenshot\google.png); can you tell what i did wrong here? or way to fix it? thank you in advance.

[@soujanyaambati4251]

Instead of FileUtils.copyFile(), use FileHandler.copy(), it will work.

[@sanchitgandhi7551]

FileUtils.copyFile(src,new File("C:\\Users\\km\\eclipse-workspace\\seleniumcodespractice\\src\\demosel1\\screenshot\\google.png"); try with this command, it should work, why 2 \ is because java understand single \ as ASCII character (like we use it for \t), in order to make java understand that we are providing a valid folder path, we need to mention the path with 2 '\'

Hi how to use setsleep in cucumber frame work

[@hakimakbary65]

In my case, the question about take screenshot is a bit harder! Suppose you go to a page, click on a link and a popup is displayed. You have to take screenshot of only that popup (not the whole page). Anyone knows how to do it? I know that it is possible with Python but I want to do it with Java. Any suggesstion how to do it?

[@niteshrawat576]

Hi Naveen , The FileUtils statement is no prompting to add IOException ,instead FileUtils cannot be resolved.I have checked and matched my code with your several times but unable to find the solution. Please can you help? Thanks in advance!\ Awesome Vids btw :)

[@sunnykartikeya]

It's FileHandler.copy(File, File) now. It'll work for sure :)
