What is/are the java/javascript equivalent methods for commands in Selenium

Question

Today is my 2nd day playing with selenium. Out of curiosity, is there a site with selenium commands and their equivalent javascript/java method?

I'm trying to create a jmeter test where it takes a Webdriver sampler and executes it. I got some commands from this site . About halfway down, they showed how selenium captured data can be converted to WebDriver format (screenshot below) )

This is a screenshot of my working "script" from selenium.

I had tried the sample commands/scripts from this website here and they worked. However, I couldn't get my cmds from my script working because I couldn't figure out the equivalent js/java method to use. For example, I have a "waitforElementPresent" command in my "script". However, I couldn't find a waitforElementPresent or a addSelection method in the api (link found here ).

Is there a site out there that shows us which methods to use for which selenium command? Am I crazy and shouldn't be doing exploratory exercises like this? Thanks in advance for your help.

Answer 1

on http://www.seleniumhq.org/docs/ you can find a lot of information on the java commands/methods of selenium.

If you want to learn more about webDriver I would recommend to read the following documents http://www.seleniumhq.org/docs/03_webdriver.jsp

Just start at the beginning and practice with small pieces of code.

Answer 2

There is even easier way:

1. Open your recorded testcase in Selenium IDE'
2. Click File - Export TestCase As...
3. Select desired language in which you want to learn (my assumption is Java - JUnit 4 - Webdriver)
4. Open the file in your peferred IDE or text editor
5. You will see all steps transferred into code, with it correct equivalents
