How to Handle Tooltips using selenium Webdriver.

Handling the tooltips are easy in selenium, we can achieve by using getAttribute("title"). where tooltips value is given in title attribute.

package SeleniumBasics;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;

import org.openqa.selenium.JavascriptExecutor;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions;

public class Seleniumtooltips {

public static void main(String[] args) {

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "E:\\eclipseprojects\\seleniumDemo\\server\\chromedriver.exe");

WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

driver.manage().window().maximize();

driver.get("https://www.facebook.com/");

WebElement link1 = driver.findElement(By.linkText("Sign Up"));

JavascriptExecutor scroll = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;

scroll.executeScript("window.scrollBy(0,1000)");

try {

Thread.sleep(1000);

} catch (Exception e) {

// TODO: handle exception

e.printStackTrace();

}

Actions action = new Actions(driver);

action.moveToElement(link1).perform();

String tooltip = link1.getAttribute("title");

System.out.println("verifying the tooltip :" + tooltip);

}
