## Can you list some of the webpage operations available in Selenium?

Me: Sure! Some of the main operations are:

♻️ Navigate to URLs:

```java
driver.get("url") 🖥
driver.navigate().to("url") 🏎️
```

👀 Inspect the webpage:

```java
driver.getTitle() 📃
driver.getPageSource() 👁
driver.getCurrentUrl() 🌐
```

✍️ Interact with elements:

```java
driver.find_element_by_id().send_keys("text") 🔍
driver.find_elements_by_class_name().click() 🖱
```

📷 Take screenshots:

```java
driver.get_screenshot_as_file("filename.png") 📸
```

⌨️ Send keyboard inputs:

```java
Actions().send_keys().perform() 💻
```

🖱 Perform mouse actions:

```java
Actions().move_to_element().click().perform() 🖱
```

## What WebEdit operations are available in Selenium?

Me: WebEdit refers to text fields, input boxes, and text areas on a webpage. Selenium provides these useful APIs to interact with WebEdits:

### To enter text in a text field:

**sendKeys()**

Syntax:

```java
driver.findElement([By.id](<http://by.id/>)("textbox")).sendKeys("TestData")
```

This will type the string "TestData" into the text field. 🔤

### To clear text from a text field:&#x20;

**clear()**

Syntax:

```java
driver.findElement([By.id](<http://by.id/>)("textbox")).clear()
```

This will empty any existing text from the field.✂️

### Entering a search query:

```java
driver.findElement([By.name](<http://by.name/>)("q")).sendKeys("selenium testing") 🔍
```

### Clearing the search box:

```java
driver.findElement([By.name](<http://by.name/>)("q")).clear() ✂️
```

### Filling out a form:

```java
driver.findElement(By.className("fname")).sendKeys("John")
driver.findElement(By.className("lname")).sendKeys("Doe")✍️
```

## What operations can you perform on links using Selenium WebDriver?

Me: Selenium provides a few useful APIs for interacting with links (i.e. \<a> elements):

### To click a link:

**click()**

Syntax:

```java
driver.findElement([By.id](<http://by.id/>)("someLink")).click()
```

This will simulate a click on the link. 👈

### To check if a link is enabled:

**isEnabled()**

Syntax:

```java
driver.findElement([By.id](<http://by.id/>)("link")).isEnabled()
```

This returns true/false if the link can be clicked. 🟢

### To check if a link is visible:&#x20;

**isDisplayed()**

Syntax:

```java
driver.findElement([By.id](<http://by.id/>)("link")).isDisplayed()
```

This returns true/false if the link is visible on the page. 👁️

### Clicking a footer link:

```java
driver.findElement(By.linkText("Terms")).click() 📄
```

### Checking a disabled link:

```java
isEnabled = driver.findElement(By.partialLinkText("Disabled")).isEnabled()
print(isEnabled)  ❌
```
