Right click on element and selecting an option from the context menu

[Naresh]

Hello all,

I have a requirement, I have to right click on element and selecting an option from the context menu.

I am able to perform right click. But I am not able to select any option.

As per my requirement, I have to save a rendered image onto disk.

For that I need to perform these actions

1). Right click on the element - Done

2). Select 'Save Image'

3). Save the image.

Can anybody advice me on this?

Thanks,

Naresh

This is about downloading content rather than interacting with a
JS-powered context menu. That's not explicitly supported by the
webdriver APIs.

Your best bet is to get the URL use "getAttribute" and then use some
other tool to grab the image.

Hello Simon,

Thanks for replying.

Following code is working fine for me with Firefox and IE. But it's not working with Chrome.

This is my code (C#).

IWebElement element = _driver.FindElement(By.Id("chart"));

            

var actions = new Actions(DriverBase.WebDriver.UnderlyingWebDriver);

ctions.Build();

            

var rClick = actions.ContextClick(element);

rClick.Perform();

Above code displaying menu which is a right click on image.

I have to choose 'Copy' menu option from that menu.

In firefox, I am able to get that by element.SendKeys(Keys.Control+"v") or calling element.SendKeys(Keys.ArrowDown) twice and element.SendKeys(Keys.Return) .For each arrow down, each item from the context menu is being selected.

On IE, calling element.SendKeys(Keys.ArrowDown) 13times and element.SendKeys(Keys.Return) is working.

But same kind of code is not working in Chrome. Can you please advice me on this.

Thanks,

Naresh

I have a file downloader class which also supports image download available here:

 

https://github.com/Ardesco/Ebselen/blob/master/ebselen-core/src/main/java/com/lazerycode/ebselen/customhandlers/FileDownloader.java

 

Short Link

 

I would however ask why you are performing this test.

 

If you are not checking the image (for example performing a SHA1/MD5 hash on it to ensure it is the image you expect) this test is completely pointless.  You would be better off getting the HTTP headers to see if the image exists (302/200 are the normal expected HTTP return codes). 

 

If you just want to see that right click has the expected options and that files can be downloaded you are not testing your website but the browser/OS.  If it doesn’t work could any of your devs fix it or will the problem be ignored.  If your devs can fix it can they force a new release of the browser/OS that contains the fix and can they force your users to download them (I’ll be very sureprised if you can answer yes to all of these questions).

Hello Mark,

Thanks for your reply.

Even I didn't like my approach. But I couldn't find any other way. So I am copying the image using right click and saving the image.

Thanks for sharing your code.  But I am using C# to automate my tests. I am trying to convert your code to C#. 

I will update you after I am done with the conversion.

Thanks,

Naresh

Thanks Mark.

Your advice helped me. I was under wrong impression about accessing the image from website. 

I was not aware of adding the cookies to HTTP request, so I was not able to download the image. After looking at your post I understood how to add cookies to a http request.

Thanks once again.

I would still question why you are downloading the image, do you actually do
anything with it once you have downloaded it?

If not you have just created a pointless test...

Here image is nothing but a Chart. Need to compare the charts.

So downloading the chart(image) and comparing with reference data.

You probably should have started a new thread for this, although it does match the subject here.

I haven't done this, but I believe that after you have it do the right click operation you can have it send the cursor keys and then an enter ("\n") to select something from the context menu.  I am sure I have seen that posted either in this forum or the selenium-users one.

Hi Naresh,

Can you please send me the webdriver right click script.

you need to do this through Action Class .

       

  WebElement webelement = driver.findElement(By.xpath("Xpath Locator"));

        

        Actions actions = new Actions(driver);    

        Action action = actions.contextClick(webelement).build();

        action.perform();
