C＃：如何在Selenium的Keyboard.SendKeys中发送组合键

Question

I'm using Selenium 2 on Windows to automate firefox. I tried to send 'Alt+Esc' to the browser to minimise it on start. However firefox keeps typing the '{%ESC}' in its address bar. What should I do? thanks.

using (driver = new FirefoxDriver(firefoxProfile))
{
    driver.Keyboard.SendKeys("{%ESC}");
}

Answer 1

I use this to open a new window (with the keyboard input) and it works just fine

IWebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();                          
Actions action = new Actions(driver);
action.SendKeys(OpenQA.Selenium.Keys.Control + "n").Build().Perform();

Answer 2

I prefer:

element.SendKeys(Keys.Control + "a");

Now you can focus on the element and not only on the webdriver

Answer 3

Sending regular key use SendKeys("ab12#$") .
Sending a modifier key (Keys.Shift, Keys.Control, or Keys.Alt) use

.[KeyUp\keyDown]([OpenQA.Selenium.Keys.Control\OpenQA.Selenium.Keys.Alt...])

And you can combine them as needed:

action.KeyDown(OpenQA.Selenium.Keys.Shift).SendKeys("ThisWillBePrintedCAPS").KeyUp(OpenQA.Selenium.Keys.Shift).SendKeys("ThisWillBePrintedRegular").Build().Perform();
