public class LinkBasics1 {

 

            public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {

 

                        //open chrome browser

                        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", ".\\Drivers\\chromedriver.exe");

                       

                        WebDriver  driver  = new ChromeDriver();

                        // Note: import all predefined classes and interfaces --> ctrl + shft+ o

 

 

                        // open url -file:///C:/brahma/Practise/qtp%20practise/web%20apps/ALL%20Web%20objects.html

                        driver.get("file:///C:/brahma/Practise/qtp%20practise/web%20apps/ALL%20Web%20objects.html");

 

 

                        // click 'My google' link

                        //                      1. Identify ele 2. what action to perform - click()

//                      driver.findElement(By.id(""));

//                      driver.findElement(By.name(""));

//                      driver.findElement(By.className(""));

                        // -- no name

                        // -- no id

                        //By.className("");// -- no class                   

                        Thread.sleep(3000);

                        //click 'My google'  link   By.linkText          

//                      driver.findElement(By.linkText("Click My Google")).click();

//                      driver.findElement(By.linkText("Click My Google123")).click();

 

                        // if no link text is there in page, ???

                        //  it goes to html page ,  find the ele   "by class" locator i.e link text ="Click My Google1234"

                        //   if  there is no match found in html page, it throws NoSuchElementException

 

                        //                                  Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"link text","selector":"Click My Google1234"}

 

 

                        // get url name from link -"Click My Google"

                        // href val=https://www.google.com/

                        String url = driver.findElement(By.linkText("Click My Google")).getAttribute("href");

                        //                     https://www.google.com/

 

                        // url =  https://www.google.com/

                        System.out.println("googleHrefAttr="+ url);

                        //

                       

                        //  get link text for 'click My google' link

                       

 

                        //       Linktext=

                        //  use gettext()  for  <a> text  <a>

                        //                       <p>  para-1 </p>

                        //                     <option>  Honda </option>

            }

 

}

 

Handling Link using PartialLinkText:

 

package WebelementsBasics;

 

import org.openqa.selenium.By;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;

 

public class LinkBasics2 {

 

            public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {

                        //open chrome browser

                        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", ".\\Drivers\\chromedriver.exe");

                        WebDriver  driver =  new ChromeDriver();

 

                        Thread.sleep(3000);

                        driver.navigate().to("file:///C:/brahma/Practise/qtp%20practise/web%20apps/ALL%20Web%20objects.html");

 

                        // clikc 'click  My google  ' link

                        //                      1. Identify ele 2. what action to perform - click()

//                                              driver.findElement(By.name(""));// -- no name

//                                              driver.findElement(By.id("")) ;// -- no id

//                                              By.className("");// -- no class

                                               

//                                  WebElement MygoogleLinkele=             driver.findElement(By.linkText("Click My Google"));//                                                     

//                                  MygoogleLinkele.click();

                       

                       

//                      By.partialLinkText("partial link text");

//                      By.partialLinkText("My Google");

//                      By.partialLinkText("Google");

 

                        // find element using by partialLinkText("My Google")

                        driver.findElement(By.partialLinkText("My Google")).click();

                                                                                   

                        // HW  if we pass invalid link text

//                                  Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"link text","selector":"Click My Google1234"}

 

                                   

                        //HW  get url name from  "click My google "link using partialLinkText()//                                        

//                                  // href val=https://www.google.com/

                                   

                                   

                        // HW  get url of   'Click My Facebook'  link using partialLinkText()

 

                        // HW Check "Click My Facebook'  link  is displayed, is enabled using partialLinkText()

 

 

            }
