Tried all methods that are commented...and later tried with applescript which worked but i would like to know if there is anyother way to use Robot class in MAC

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

// TODO Auto-generated method stub

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "/Users/rashmimohan/Desktop/Selenium_IDE/chromedriver");

WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

//System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "/Users/rashmimohan/Desktop/Selenium_IDE/geckodriver");

//WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

driver.get("https://www.phptravels.net/");

/*for(int row = 2; row<=2;row++)

{

for(int col = 1;col<=1;)

{

search_by_cityname(driver,excel_read(row,col));

//col++;

//click_cityname(driver,excel_read(row,col));

}

} */

WebElement city_text = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id=\"s2id_autogen8\"]/a/span[1]"));

city_text.click();

WebElement entername = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id=\"select2-drop\"]/div/input"));

entername.sendKeys("Bangalore");

//entername.sendKeys(Keys.ENTER);

Thread.sleep(1000);

Runtime.getRuntime().exec("osascript "+"/Users/rashmimohan/Desktop/Testingkeyboardevents.scpt");

//Keys.chord(Keys.ENTER);

//Keys.chord(Keys.COMMAND,"ENTER");

   

        //KeyEvent.KEY_PRESSED(Keys.ENTER);

//Thread.sleep(1000);

/*Robot r = new Robot();

r.delay(1000);

r.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER);

r.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER);

/* String os = System.getProperty("os.name");

if (os.equals("WINDOWS")){

  Keys.chord(Keys.CONTROL, "a");

}else{

  Keys.chord(Keys.COMMAND.ENTER);

}*/

I didnt check this, probably you may have to check if any settings has to be done in MAC OS for accepting KeyBoard Inputs.
