traverse nested tagnames - selenium automation using webDriver

Question

Friends,

I have a situation where I need to click on a dropdown list and select any value displayed. The dropdown is identified by the following piece of code

<select id="order_unit_line_rate_806782_is_addenda_enabled" class="selects_for_487886" onchange="select_addendum(806782, this);dateShowMemory(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value, '806782');" uniqueattr="Dynamic Site Accelerator / Dynamic Site Accelerator / Additional Usage Commitment / drop down" name="order_unit_line_rate[806782][is_addenda_enabled]">
    <option value="0" uniqueattr="Dynamic Site Accelerator / Dynamic Site Accelerator / Additional Usage Commitment / Fee"> Fee </option>
    <option value="1" uniqueattr="Dynamic Site Accelerator / Dynamic Site Accelerator / Additional Usage Commitment / See Attached Addendum"> See Attached Addendum </option>

where the "select" and "option" tags are in a nested hierarchy . i am able to click on the dropdown list and display the items by doing this

List<WebElement> dropDownLists = driver.findElements(By.tagName("select"));
for (WebElement l : dropDownLists) { 
    if (l.getAttribute("uniqueattr").equalsIgnoreCase("Dynamic Site Accelerator / Dynamic Site Accelerator / Additional Usage Commitment / drop down")) {
              l.click();
    } // end if
} // end for

But I am unable to traverse further to click on the options in the dropdown :(.

This is what i tried but which is not working

List<WebElement> newList = driver.findElements(By.tagName("option"));
for (WebElement ll : newList) {
    if (ll.getAttribute("uniqueattr").equalsIgnoreCase("Dynamic Site Accelerator / Dynamic Site Accelerator / Additional Usage Commitment / Straight Line Commitment")) {
        ll.click();
    }
}

Answer 1

Retrieve the label, index or value of the option you want to click like this

List<WebElement> dropDownLists = driver.findElements(By.tagName("select"));
for (WebElement l : dropDownLists) 
{ 
    List<WebElement> newList = l.findElements(By.tagName("option"));
    for (WebElement ll : newList) 
    {
            if (ll.getAttribute("uniqueattr").equalsIgnoreCase("Dynamic Site Accelerator / Dynamic Site Accelerator / Additional Usage Commitment / Straight Line Commitment")) 
            {
                SelectElement select = new SelectElement(l);
                select.SelectByValue(ll.getAttribute("value"));
            }
    }
}

Thats what the Select is for..

do something like:

    Select dropDown = new Select(dropDownElement);
    for (WebElement option : dropDown .getOptions()){
        if(!option.isSelected()){
            option.click();
        }
    }
