What Should i do when i am getting null values after using .getoptions() for select class in java se-CodePudding

This is the website I am practicing on https://rahulshettyacademy.com/dropdownsPractise/

This is my code WebElement origin=driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id="ctl00_mainContent_ddl_originStation1"]")); Select ori=new Select(origin); List oriui= ori.getOptions(); int size = oriui.size(); for(int i =0; i<size ; i ){ String options = oriui.get(i).getText(); System.out.println(options);

CodePudding user response：

Let's beautify your code first. https://codebeautify.org/javaviewer

WebElement origin = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id="ctl00_mainContent_ddl_originStation1 "]"));
Select ori = new Select(origin);
List oriui = ori.getOptions();
int size = oriui.size();
for (int i = 0; i < size; i  ) {
  String options = oriui.get(i).getText();
  System.out.println(options);

First, to get the select element properly, pass the XPath as a String. Use the single quote or escape character as the element ID in the xpath also a nested String in this case.

Be like..

driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='ctl00_mainContent_ddl_originStation1']"));

Alternatively you can use By.id if you are calling it by ID only.

driver.findElement(By.id("ctl00_mainContent_ddl_originStation1"));

public void Test() throws Exception {
        String URL = "https://rahulshettyacademy.com/dropdownsPractise/";
        driver.get(URL);
        
        WebElement origin = driver.findElement(By.id("ctl00_mainContent_ddl_originStation1"));
        Select ori = new Select(origin);
        List<WebElement> oriui = ori.getOptions();
        for(WebElement ele : oriui) {
            System.out.println(ele.getAttribute("text"));

        }
    }
