Unable to select the all unread mail in Gmail through selenium

[Avinash Mavi]

I am using the filter dropdown to select the Unread mails.

Selenium Code:

import org.openqa.selenium.By;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions;

public class testing {

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

     WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

        String baseUrl = "https://www.gmail.com";

                

        driver.get(baseUrl);

       

        driver.findElement(By.id("identifierId")).sendKeys("**********@gmail.com");

        

        driver.findElement(By.id("identifierNext")).click();

        

        Thread.sleep(3000);

        

        driver.findElement(By.xpath(".//*[@id='password']/div[1]/div/div[1]/input")).sendKeys("*****");

        

        driver.findElement(By.id("passwordNext")).click();

        

        Thread.sleep(4000);

        driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id=':2t']/div[2]")).click();

        Thread.sleep(3000);

       

        // to click the unread mail in the dropdown

        WebElement value=driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[7]/div/div[4]/div"));

        Actions act=new Actions(driver);

        act.moveToElement(value).build().perform();

        value.click();

        Thread.sleep(2000);         

             

        //driver.close();

        //System.exit(0);

      

}

}

Why are you automating Gmail? Unless you work on the Gmail team, I would think you'd much rather want to use Gmail's API.

Hi,

I see the xpath which you have used for selecting unread option is incorrect. You have to modify that xpath. 

Modification which can be made in the xpath:

       WebElement value=driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[@selector='unread']/div"));

Thanks & Regards,
