How can I implement of the drag-and-drop functionality in a testing process by using Selenium’s WebDriver in my test scripts?

36    Asked by david_2585 in QA Testing , Asked on Apr 9, 2024

 I am currently engaged in a particular task that is related to testing a web-based application by using the Selenium WebDriver in Java programming language. However, when I was going through with the process I encountered a scenario where I needed to automate the drag and drop of an element from one location to another on the Web-based page. How can I approach the implementation of the drag-and-drop functionality by using the Selenium WebDriver in my test script?

 In the context of Selenium, here is an example given of how you can implement the drag and drop functionality by using the selenium WebDriver in Java programming language:-


Import org.openqa.selenium.By;
Import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
Import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
Import org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions;
Import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
Public class DragAndDropExample {
    Public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Set the path to the ChromeDriver executable
        System.setProperty(“webdriver.chrome.driver”, “path/to/chromedriver”);
        // Initialize the ChromeDriver instance
        WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
        // Navigate to the webpage with drag and drop functionality
        Driver.get(https://www.example.com);
        // Locate the source element to be dragged
        WebElement sourceElement = driver.findElement(By.id(“sourceElementId”)); // Replace “sourceElementId” with the actual ID of the source element
        // Locate the target element where the source element will be dropped
        WebElement targetElement = driver.findElement(By.id(“targetElementId”)); // Replace “targetElementId” with the actual ID of the target element
        // Create an Actions object to perform the drag and drop action
        Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
        // Perform the drag and drop action by dragging the source element to the target element
        Actions.dragAndDrop(sourceElement, targetElement).build().perform();
        // Close the WebDriver instance
        Driver.quit();
    }
}
