How to perform multiple actions and click on the link with text as Member Login on the url http://www.spicejet.com/ through selenium-webdriver

Question

I tried the below code but it is not mouse hovering and clicking on 'Member login'

WebElement lgn = driver.findElement(By.id("ctl00_HyperLinkLogin"));
WebElement ssm = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//a[contains(text(), 'SpiceCash/SpiceClub Members')]"));
WebElement cgm = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//a[contains(text(),'Member Login')]"));
Actions a1 = new Actions(driver);
a1.moveToElement(lgn).moveToElement(ssm).moveToElement(cgm).click().build().perform();

Answer 1

To invoke click() on the element with text as Member login , first you have to Mouse Hover over the element with text as LOGIN / SIGNUP , then Mouse Hover over the element with text as SpiceCash/SpiceClub Members then induce WebDriverWait for the element with text as Member Login to be clickable and you can use the following solution:

• Code Block:

   import org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions; import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions; import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait; public class Spicejet_member_login { public static void main(String[] args) { System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "C:\\\\Utility\\\\BrowserDrivers\\\\geckodriver.exe"); WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(); driver.get("http://www.spicejet.com/"); new Actions(driver).moveToElement(new WebDriverWait(driver, 5).until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.cssSelector("a.link#ctl00_HyperLinkLogin")))).build().perform(); new Actions(driver).moveToElement(new WebDriverWait(driver, 5).until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//li[@class='hide-mobile']/a[contains(.,'SpiceCash/SpiceClub Members')]")))).build().perform(); new WebDriverWait(driver, 7).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("//li[@class='hide-mobile']//ul/li/a[@href='https://book.spicejet.com/Login.aspx' and contains(.,'Member Login')]"))).click(); } }

You can try to add waits between your moveToElement() calls

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(WebDriverRunner.getWebDriver(), 10); wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOf(element))

where the "element" is your menu that should appear on hover.

Or you can use ready solution Selenide framework which is built on top of the Selenium and has built in hover method and waits which help to handle page dynamics By this link you can find an example of hover() method usage.
