Download Files in Chrome,
Firefox, etc.
Setting Download Location in
Chrome:
To set a
default download location in Chrome, follow these steps:
- Manual Settings:
- Open Chrome.
- Click the three dots (menu)
in the top-right corner.
- Select Settings.
- In the search bar, type downloads.
- Scroll to the bottom to see
Downloads settings.
- Under Location, you
will see the default download path (e.g., C:\Users\Lenovo\Downloads).
- You can change the download
location by clicking Change.
- To prompt where to save
each file before downloading, enable Ask where to save each file
before downloading.
Note:
We can change downloads location folder name .
2. Automated Settings with Selenium:
- To change download settings
in automation, you need to configure ChromeOptions and FirefoxOptions.
DownLoad File in
default Location:
package UploadfileBasics;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
public class DownloadsFileInDefaultLocation {
public static
void main(String[] args) {
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver",
".\\Drivers\\chromedriver.exe");
// //open chrome browser
WebDriver driver =
new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("https://www.w3schools.com/howto/tryit.asp?filename=tryhow_html_download_link2");
//
click Logo
// driver.findElement(By.xpath("//img[@alt='W3Schools']")).click();
//selenium.NoSuchElementException:
no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"xpath","selector":"//img[@alt='W3Schools']"}
//
first Check that ele is in frame, if it is in frame, we have to swicth control to frame..
// by name or id or indexno or Webele
//
Switch to Frame
driver.switchTo().frame("iframeResult");
//
click Logo
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//img[@alt='W3Schools']")).click();
// it downloads file in default location of
chrome browser ????
//
Switch control to main page
driver.switchTo().defaultContent();
System.out.println("ends");
}
}
DownLoad File in
Specific folder /Project Location:
// set download location
for Automation
HashMap<String,
Object> hm = new HashMap<String, Object>();
//
dont want popup window Where we need to save the file -- disable popup window -
asking where to save the
hm.put("profile.default_content_settings.popups",
0);
// To
download any file in the given location
hm.put("download.default_directory",
"C:\\brahma\\MyDownloads");
// C:\brahma\MyDownloads
