如何使用Selenium Webdriver中的操作类提取文本？

Question

I have written code to copy text using action class of selenium webdriver. All I have been able to do is to drag cursor around the text and copy it.

Code snippet :

Actions a = action.clickAndHold(element)
                        .moveToElement(element1)
                        .release()
                        .keyDown(Keys.CONTROL)
                    .sendKeys("c")
                        .keyUp(Keys.CONTROL);
a.perform();

Now how do I print this text on display console using java?

You should really just use WebElement#getText() . If you need to get the text of several elements, simply concatenate it. It will be much easier, much more reliable and it will work on every browser and OS.

But since you asked:

Clipboard clipboard = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemClipboard();
System.out.println(clipboard.getData(DataFlavor.stringFlavor));
