Selenium Webdriver - Select Drop down, input text and click-CodePudding

I got error: AttributeError: 'WebDriver' object has no attribute 'find_element_by'

url = "https://calculator.shipany.io/"
chrome_options = Options()
# chrome_options.add_argument("--headless")

driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=chrome_options)
driver.get(url)
sleep(5)

1.) How to use selenium to select drop down:

Select "Hong Kong" in Origin

origin = driver.find_element_by(By.XPATH, "//*[@id='i_form']/div/div[2]/div[1]/select/option[2]")
origin.click()

Select "Hong Kong" in Destination

destination = driver.find_element_by(By.XPATH, "//*[@id='i_form']/div/div[2]/div[2]/select/option[2]")
destination.click()

2.) How to input text in the placeholder of

weight

weight = driver.find_element_by(By.XPATH, "//*[@id='i_form']/div/div[2]/div[3]/input[1]")
weight.send_keys("1")

L(cm)

length = driver.find_element_by(By.XPATH, "//input[@placeholder='L(cm)']")
length.send_keys("1")

W(cm)

width = driver.find_element_by(By.XPATH, "//*[@id='dimension']/input[3]")
width.send_keys("1")

H(cm)

height = driver.find_element_by(By.XPATH, "//*[@id='dimension']/input[6]")
height.send_keys("1")

3.) How to click the button for submit-form?

button = driver.find_element_by(By.XPATH, "//*[@id='i_form']/div/div[2]/div[5]/button[1]")
button.click()

CodePudding user response：

Instead of find_element_by you should use find_element method.
Like

origin = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//*[@id='i_form']/div/div[2]/div[1]/select/option[2]")
origin.click()

etc.
You can reduce the code above to be

driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//*[@id='i_form']/div/div[2]/div[1]/select/option[2]").click()

Also, you should use Expected Conditions explicit waits instead of hardcoded pauses like

sleep(5)

CodePudding user response：

The dropdown is Select component you can use Select class to access the element.

To handle dynamic element use explicit wait and wait for element to be visible.

driver.get("https://calculator.shipany.io/")
wait=WebDriverWait(driver, 5)
dropdownOrigin =wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//div[@class='booking-form']//select[.//option[contains(.,'Origin')]]")))
selectOrigin=Select(dropdownOrigin)
selectOrigin.select_by_visible_text("Hong Kong")

dropdownDestination =wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//div[@class='booking-form']//select[.//option[contains(.,'Destination')]]")))
selectDest=Select(dropdownDestination)
selectDest.select_by_visible_text("Hong Kong")

You need to import below libraries.

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
