SELENIUM How to Select Checkbox and Radio button with example

How to Select Checkbox and Radio button with example:

Using radio button we will be able to select only one option from the options available because multi radio buttons we can not select.

Using checkbox, we can select multiple options of different check boxes.

Radio Button HTML code:

&lt;input type=”radio”&gt;

1	<input type=”radio”>

Checkbox HTML code:

&lt;input type=”checkbox”&gt;

1	<input type=”checkbox”>

Using Click() method in Selenium we can perform the action on the Radio button and on Checkbox.

Example:

Webelement maleRadioBtn = driver.findElement (By.id("gender-male-button"));

maleRadioBtn.click();

Webelement maleRadioBtn = driver.findElement (By.id("gender-male-button"));

maleRadioBtn.click();

Example: Perform click operation or Handle Checkbox Radio button in Selenium:

import java.util.List;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class Radio_Checkbox {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

        driver.get("https://www.stqatools.com");

        // Male Radio btnlocation store into maleRadioBtn WebElement
        WebElement RadioBtn = driver.findElement(By.id("gen-male"));

        // Click on Radio Button
        RadioBtn.click();

        // Cricket Checkbox location store into Checkbox WebElement
        WebElement Cricket = driver.findElement(By.id("cricket"));                       

        // Hockey Checkbox location store into Checkbox WebElement
        WebElement Hockey = driver.findElement(By.id("hockey"));                       

        // Select Multiple Checkboxes
        Cricket.click();

        Hockey.click();
     }
}

import java.util.List;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class Radio_Checkbox {

public static void main(String[] args) {

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

driver.get("https://www.stqatools.com");

// Male Radio btnlocation store into maleRadioBtn WebElement

WebElement RadioBtn = driver.findElement(By.id("gen-male"));

// Click on Radio Button

RadioBtn.click();

// Cricket Checkbox location store into Checkbox WebElement

WebElement Cricket = driver.findElement(By.id("cricket"));

// Hockey Checkbox location store into Checkbox WebElement

WebElement Hockey = driver.findElement(By.id("hockey"));

// Select Multiple Checkboxes

Cricket.click();

Hockey.click();

}

Before performing on the Radio buttons or checkboxes need to verify:

Verify Radio button or Checkbox is displayed on the web page before perform any operation.

Verify Radio button or Checkbox is enabled on the web page before perform any operation.

Check the default selection of the Radio button or Checkbox before perform any operation.

Below Verify methods used in Radio Button & Checkbox:

isDisplayed()
isEnabled()
isSelected()

isDisplayed():

returns a Boolean value, if it returns true then said radio button ispresent on the web page or if returns False then radio button is not present on the web page.

// Male Radio Button location store into maleRadioBtn WebElement
WebElement maleRadioBtn = driver.findElement (By.id("gender-male"));

// Radio button is present in webpage then return boolean value
boolean status = maleRadioBtn.isDisplayed();

// Male Radio Button location store into maleRadioBtn WebElement

WebElement maleRadioBtn = driver.findElement (By.id("gender-male"));

// Radio button is present in webpage then return boolean value

boolean status = maleRadioBtn.isDisplayed();

isEnabled():

returns a Boolean value, if it returns true then said radio button isEnabled on the web page or if returns False then radio button is not present on the web page.

// Male Radio Button location store into maleRadioBtn WebElement
WebElement maleRadioBtn = driver.findElement (By.id("gender-male"));

// Radio button is present in web page then return boolean value
boolean status = maleRadioBtn.isEnabled();

// Male Radio Button location store into maleRadioBtn WebElement

WebElement maleRadioBtn = driver.findElement (By.id("gender-male"));

// Radio button is present in web page then return boolean value

boolean status = maleRadioBtn.isEnabled();

isSelected():

returns a Boolean value, if it returns true then said radio button isSelected on the web page or if returns False then radio button is not present on the web page.

// Male Radio Button location store into maleRadioBtn WebElement
WebElement maleRadioBtn = driver.findElement (By.id("gender-male"));                 

// Radio button is present in web page then return boolean value
boolean status = maleRadioBtn.isSelected();

// Male Radio Button location store into maleRadioBtn WebElement

WebElement maleRadioBtn = driver.findElement (By.id("gender-male"));

// Radio button is present in web page then return boolean value

boolean status = maleRadioBtn.isSelected();

Example of Verify Methods of Checkbox / Radio button:

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class Radio_Checkbox {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

        driver.get("https://www.stqatools.com");

        // Rad Button/Checkbox location store into Rad_check_id
        WebElement Radio_Checkbox = driver.findElement(By.id("Rad_check_id"));

        // Rad Button/checkbox isDisplayed then return boolean value
        boolean isDisplayed_status = Radio_Checkbox.isDisplayed();

        // Rad Button/checkbox isEnabled then return boolean value
        boolean isEnabled_status = Radio_Checkbox.isEnabled();

        // Rad Button/checkbox isSelected then return boolean value
        boolean isSelected_status = Radio_Checkbox.isSelected();
     }
}

import org.openqa.selenium.By;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class Radio_Checkbox {

public static void main(String[] args) {

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

driver.get("https://www.stqatools.com");

// Rad Button/Checkbox location store into Rad_check_id

WebElement Radio_Checkbox = driver.findElement(By.id("Rad_check_id"));

// Rad Button/checkbox isDisplayed then return boolean value

boolean isDisplayed_status = Radio_Checkbox.isDisplayed();

// Rad Button/checkbox isEnabled then return boolean value

boolean isEnabled_status = Radio_Checkbox.isEnabled();

// Rad Button/checkbox isSelected then return boolean value

boolean isSelected_status = Radio_Checkbox.isSelected();

}

Select All Checkboxes:

import java.util.List;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class All_Checkbox_Select {

   public static void main(String[] args) {

      WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

      driver.get("https://www.stqatools.com");

      // All checkbox locations store into list using findelements
      List&lt;WebElement&gt; els = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//input[@type='checkbox']"));

      // Using for each loop store all checkboxes into el
      for (WebElement el : els) {

           // Verify if checkbox in not selected then click
           if (!el.isSelected()) {
                   el.click();
           }
       }
   }
}

import java.util.List;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class All_Checkbox_Select {

public static void main(String[] args) {

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

driver.get("https://www.stqatools.com");

// All checkbox locations store into list using findelements

List<WebElement> els = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//input[@type='checkbox']"));

// Using for each loop store all checkboxes into el

for (WebElement el : els) {

// Verify if checkbox in not selected then click

if (!el.isSelected()) {

el.click();

}
