Selenium::Remote::WebElement - Representation of an HTML Element used by Selenium Remote Driver
version 0.17
Selenium Webdriver represents all the HTML elements as WebElement. This module provides a mechanism to represent them as objects & perform various actions on the related elements. This module should not be instantiated directly by the end user. Selenium::Remote::Driver instantiates this module when required. Typically, the find_element method in Selenium::Remote::Driver returns this object on which various element related operations can be carried out.
Description: Click the element. Usage: $elem->click();
Description: Submit a FORM element. The submit command may also be applied to any element that is a descendant of a FORM element. Usage: $elem->submit();
Description: Send a sequence of key strokes to an element. If you want to send specific Keyboard events, then use the WDKeys module along with theis method. See e.g. for reference Input: 1 Required: {ARRAY | STRING} - Array of strings or a string. Usage: $elem->send_keys('abcd', 'efg'); $elem->send_keys('hijk'); or # include the WDKeys module use Selenium::Remote::WDKeys; . . $elem->send_keys(KEYS->{'space'}, KEYS->{'enter'});
Description: Determine if an OPTION element, or an INPUT element of type checkbox or radiobutton is currently selected. Output: BOOLEAN - whether the element is selected Usage: $elem->is_selected();
Description: Select an OPTION element, or an INPUT element of type checkbox or radiobutton. Usage: $elem->set_selected(); Note: DEPRECATED -- use click instead
Description: Toggle whether an OPTION element, or an INPUT element of type checkbox or radiobutton is currently selected. Output: BOOLEAN - Whether the element is selected after toggling its state. Usage: $elem->toggle(); Note: DEPRECATED -- use click instead
Description: Determine if an element is currently enabled. Output: BOOLEAN - Whether the element is enabled. Usage: $elem->is_enabled();
Description: Determine an element's location on the page. The point (0, 0) refers to the upper-left corner of the page. Output: HASH - The X and Y coordinates for the element on the page. Usage: $elem->get_element_location();
Description: Determine an element's location on the screen once it has been scrolled into view. Note: This is considered an internal command and should only be used to determine an element's location for correctly generating native events. Output: {x:number, y:number} The X and Y coordinates for the element on the page. Usage: $elem->get_element_location_in_view();
Description: Query for an element's tag name. Output: STRING - The element's tag name, as a lowercase string. Usage: $elem->get_tag_name();
Description: Clear a TEXTAREA or text INPUT element's value. Usage: $elem->clear();
Description: Get the value of an element's attribute. Input: 1 Required: STRING - name of the attribute of the element Output: {STRING | NULL} The value of the attribute, or null if it is not set on the element. Usage: $elem->get_attribute('name');
Description: Query for the value of an element, as determined by its value attribute. Output: {STRING | NULL} The element's value, or null if it doesn't have a value attribute. Usage: $elem->get_value();
Description: Determine if an element is currently displayed. Output: BOOLEAN - Whether the element is displayed. Usage: $elem->is_displayed();
Description: Drag and drop an element. The distance to drag an element should be specified relative to the upper-left corner of the page and it starts at 0,0 Input: 2 Required: NUMBER - X axis distance in pixels NUMBER - Y axis distance in pixels Usage: $elem->drag(216,158);
Description: Determine an element's size in pixels. The size will be returned with width and height properties. Output: HASH - The width and height of the element, in pixels. Usage: $elem->get_size();
Description: Get the innerText of the element. Output: STRING - innerText of an element Usage: $elem->get_text();
Description: Query the value of an element's computed CSS property. The CSS property to query should be specified using the CSS property name, not the JavaScript property name (e.g. background-color instead of backgroundColor). Input: 1 Required: STRING - name of the css-attribute Output: STRING - Value of the css attribute Usage: $elem->get_css_attribute('background-color');
