SELENIUM Scroll page in Selenium WebDriver Scroll Up and Down Down

Scroll Page in Selenium:

What is a scrollbar?

A scrollbar is one that lets you move around the screen in a horizontal or vertical direction if the current page is not fit in the viewing area of the scrolling screen.

It is used to move the window up and down.

Selenium Webdriver does not require scrolling to work because it combines DOM. But in some web pages, users only appear once, when users scroll them down scrolling in such cases may be necessary.

The scroll bar has two types: horizontal and vertical scroll bars.

Multiple Ways to Scroll Down and Scroll Up page:

Scroll Down and Scroll Up page using JavascriptExecutor.
Scroll Down and Scroll Up page using Robot Class.
Scroll Down and Scroll Up page Using Actions Class.

1. Scroll Down and Scroll Up page using JavascriptExecutor:

Using JavascriptExecutor we can Scroll up and Scroll Down Web Page.

Using window.scrollBy(0,250) OR scroll(0, 250) Methods we can Scroll Page.

Package:

 import org.openqa.selenium.JavascriptExecutor;

1	import org.openqa.selenium.JavascriptExecutor;

Create JavascriptExecutor class object:

 JavascriptExecutor jse = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;

1	JavascriptExecutor jse = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;

Scroll Down:

jse.executeScript("window.scrollBy(0,250)", "");

OR, you can do as follows:

jse.executeScript("scroll(0, 250);");

jse.executeScript("window.scrollBy(0,250)", "");

OR, you can do as follows:

jse.executeScript("scroll(0, 250);");

Scroll Up:

jse.executeScript("window.scrollBy(0,-250)", "");

OR, you can do as follows:

jse.executeScript("scroll(0, -250);");

jse.executeScript("window.scrollBy(0,-250)", "");

OR, you can do as follows:

jse.executeScript("scroll(0, -250);");

Example of Scroll Page in Selenium with JavaScriptExecutor class:

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import org.openqa.selenium.JavascriptExecutor;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class JavaScriptExecutor_Scroll {

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

// Path of geckodriver
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","D:\\geckodriver.exe");

// Initialize WebDriver
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

// Wait For Page To Load
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

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

// Maximize Window
driver.manage().window().maximize();

// Create JavascriptExecutor object jes
JavascriptExecutor jse = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;

// Scroll Down page using First way
jse.executeScript("window.scrollBy(0,250)", "");

// Scroll Up Page using First way
jse.executeScript("window.scrollBy(0,-250)", "");

// OR

// Scroll Down Page using Second way
jse.executeScript("scroll(0, 250);");

// Scroll Up Page using Second way
jse.executeScript("scroll(0, -250);");

}

}

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

import org.openqa.selenium.JavascriptExecutor;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class JavaScriptExecutor_Scroll {

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

// Path of geckodriver

System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","D:\\geckodriver.exe");

// Initialize WebDriver

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

// Wait For Page To Load

driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

// Go to URL

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

// Maximize Window

driver.manage().window().maximize();

// Create JavascriptExecutor object jes

JavascriptExecutor jse = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;

// Scroll Down page using First way

jse.executeScript("window.scrollBy(0,250)", "");

// Scroll Up Page using First way

jse.executeScript("window.scrollBy(0,-250)", "");

// OR

// Scroll Down Page using Second way

jse.executeScript("scroll(0, 250);");

// Scroll Up Page using Second way

jse.executeScript("scroll(0, -250);");

}

2. Scroll Down and Scroll Up page using Robot Class:

Using Robot Class we can Scroll up and Scroll Down Web Page.

Using keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_DOWN) Method we can Scroll Page.

Package:

import java.awt.Robot;

import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;

import java.awt.Robot;

import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;

Create Robot class object:

Robot robot = new Robot();

1	Robot robot = new Robot();

Scroll Down:

robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_DOWN);

robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_DOWN);

robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_DOWN);

robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_DOWN);

Scroll Up:

robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_UP);

robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_UP);

robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_UP);

robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_UP);

Example of Scroll Page using Robot class:

import java.awt.Robot;
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;
import java.io.IOException;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class Robot_Scroll {

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

// Path of geckodriver
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","D:\\geckodriver.exe");

// Initialize WebDriver
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

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

// Create a Robot class object
Robot robot = new Robot();

// Scroll Down using Robot class
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_DOWN);
robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_DOWN);

// Scroll Up using Robot class
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_UP);
robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_UP);

}

}

import java.awt.Robot;

import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;

import java.io.IOException;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class Robot_Scroll {

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

// Path of geckodriver

System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","D:\\geckodriver.exe");

// Initialize WebDriver

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

// Go to URL

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

// Create a Robot class object

Robot robot = new Robot();

// Scroll Down using Robot class

robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_DOWN);

robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_DOWN);

// Scroll Up using Robot class

robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_UP);

robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_PAGE_UP);

}

3. Scroll Down and Scroll Up page Using Actions Class:

Using Actions Class we can Scroll up and Scroll Down Web Page.

Using keyDown(Keys.CONTROL).sendKeys(Keys.END) Method we can Scroll Page.

Package:

import org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions;

1	import org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions;

Create Action class object:

Actions actions = new Actions(driver);

1	Actions actions = new Actions(driver);

Scroll Down:

actions.keyDown(Keys.CONTROL).sendKeys(Keys.END).perform();

1	actions.keyDown(Keys.CONTROL).sendKeys(Keys.END).perform();

Scroll Up:

actions.keyDown(Keys.CONTROL).sendKeys(Keys.HOME).perform();

1	actions.keyDown(Keys.CONTROL).sendKeys(Keys.HOME).perform();

Example to Scroll Using Actions class:

import java.io.IOException;
import org.openqa.selenium.Keys;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions;

public class Actions_Scroll {

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

//Path of geckodriver
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","D:\\geckodriver.exe");

// Initialize WebDriver
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

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

// Create object of Actions class
Actions actions = new Actions(driver);

// Scroll Down using Actions class
actions.keyDown(Keys.CONTROL).sendKeys(Keys.END).perform();

// Scroll Up using Actions class
actions.keyDown(Keys.CONTROL).sendKeys(Keys.HOME).perform();

}

}

import java.io.IOException;

import org.openqa.selenium.Keys;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions;

public class Actions_Scroll {

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

//Path of geckodriver

System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","D:\\geckodriver.exe");

// Initialize WebDriver

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

// Go to URL

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

// Create object of Actions class

Actions actions = new Actions(driver);

// Scroll Down using Actions class

actions.keyDown(Keys.CONTROL).sendKeys(Keys.END).perform();

// Scroll Up using Actions class

actions.keyDown(Keys.CONTROL).sendKeys(Keys.HOME).perform();

}
