How to handle dropdown using action class in Selenium?

I'm new to Selenium world, I'm using python IDE.

I have a dropdown which contains few options like Name, Gender, Mobile number and so on. Now I need to write code, which is gonna select the required options.

How can I do this?text for option in s.selectbyindex(0) except IndexError: print 'error'. This example will click on the button: try: button = Button(elementid). s = WebDriverWait(driver,10).until(EC.visibilityofelementlocated((By.ID, 'buttonname')))
button.click() except TimeoutException: print 'TimeoutException'. pass. Except NoSuchElementException: print 'NoSuchElementException'. Except AttributeError: Another possibility is to check the selected option of the dropdown. driver.get(url) driver.findelementbyid('id').value = "1"
dropdown = driver.findelementbyid('id') print driver.executescript("return document.getElementById('id').selectedOptions")
Except Exception: print 'except Exception'. The dropdown might need JavaScript enabled for it to be able to change the dropdown value. In this case we can find the element by id and execute a script.

But that's the whole thing. This code works fine. From selenium.webdriver import Firefox

What is Actions vs Action class in Selenium?

Actions are the commands that we use to interact with the web pages, the Action class is in charge of storing the key pressed by our fingers or fingers and it's what we use to interact with elements on the page.

Selenium is in charge of automating the whole web pages interactions.

To give you an example, for the following simple site, let's try to login with different credentials: It will look like that on your browser screen: As you can see, at the time, only one field is displayed by this browser. Let's use different actions to click on this field: This is what we should enter to log in with the name marc, which would be the username: And now let's try to log in with the password marc1234567, which would be the password: If you go to your developer tool (right click over the element when hovering), you would be able to see how your web application stores the information of the user: What does this code mean? public class UserForm public String getName () } 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 public class UserForm public String getName () }. You probably noticed how an Action class is created and how an object is made out of this class. A good part of it is in this line: public UserForm objUserForm = new UserForm(); 1 public UserForm objUserForm = new UserForm ();. This line will take care of creating the class that is stored in the variable. We call the new method with obj as the reference to the class. But, what does this means?
