import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

import com.thoughtworks.selenium.SeleneseTestCase;

public class for_loop extends  SeleneseTestCase {
    private String inputFile;

    public void setInputFile(String inputFile) {
        this.inputFile = inputFile;
       
    }
    @Before
    public void setUp() throws Exception {
        WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
        String baseUrl = "http://www.facebook.com/";
        selenium = new WebDriverBackedSelenium(driver, baseUrl);
    }
   
    @Test
    public void testUntitled() throws Exception {
       
        setInputFile("D:\\traning material\\my work template\\facebook.xls");
        File inputWorkbook = new File(inputFile);
        Workbook w;
        w = Workbook.getWorkbook(inputWorkbook);
        // Get the first sheet
        Sheet sheet = w.getSheet(0);
        System.out.println("I got a label " + sheet.getCell(0,0).getContents());
       
        selenium.open("http://www.facebook.com/");
        selenium.windowMaximize();
       
       
        Thread.sleep(5000l)   ;
       
      //  selenium.windowFocus();
   //   selenium.windowMaximize();
       
        assertEquals("Welcome to Facebook - Log In, Sign Up or Learn More",selenium.getTitle());
        System.out.println(selenium.getTitle());
       
         Thread.sleep(5000l)   ;

    }

}

I am not sure
In RC the below will do job,may be we can find something similar in webdriver also
selenium.getEval("window.resizeTo(1024, 768); window.moveTo(100,100);");

Do you know that it takes 10 litres of water to produce 1 sheet of A4 paper?

Don't print this unless you have to :)

 

[UmaMahesh]

//selenium.windowMaximize();

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

if above 2 commands doesn't work try the below code.

driver.manage().window().setPosition(new Point(0,0));

java.awt.Dimension screenSize = java.awt.Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();

Dimension dim = new Dimension((int) screenSize.getWidth(), (int) screenSize.getHeight());

driver.manage().window().setSize(dim);

Thanks

Uma Mahesh.

I have four methods for maximizing the window on linux/windows:

via Javascript: 

if (window.screen) {window.moveTo(0,0); window.resizeTo(window.screen.availWidth,window.screen.availHeight);} else window.resizeTo("+resolution.width+","+resolution.height+");

via Keystrokes:

if (OS_Name.equalsIgnoreCase("microsoft")){
 log("Pressing ALT+SPACE then X for maximize");
 //alt space x on windows maximizes
 Robot robot = new Robot();
 robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ALT);
 robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_SPACE);
 
 //release opposite order
 robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_SPACE);
 robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_ALT);
 
 robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_X);
 robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_X);
 }
 else if (OS_Name.equalsIgnoreCase("linux")){
 log("Pressing ALT+F10 for maximize");
 
 Robot robot = new Robot();
 robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ALT);
 robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_F10);
 
 //release opposite order
 robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_F10);
 robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_ALT);
 
 }

via WebDriver:

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

and via startup options (Chrome only)

capabilities.setCapability("chrome.switches", Arrays.asList("--start-maximized"));

Then my logic for method for maximizing the window depending on the browser follows this logic:

if (Browser_Name.equalsIgnoreCase("internet explorer")){
   maximizeWindowViaJavascript();
 }
 else if (Browser_Name.equalsIgnoreCase("chrome")){
   log("Not maximizing window for Chrome since done via startup arguments... using keystrokes causes lockups.");
 }
 else if (Browser_Name.equalsIgnoreCase("firefox") && OS_Version.equalsIgnoreCase("windows 7 64-bit")){
   driver.manage().window().maximize();
 }
 else{
   maximizeWindowViaKeyStrokes();
 }

So, in practice, the reality for me has been to test what actually works for each... the javascript method is consistent in my experience for IE, the keystroke method work consistently for almost all other browsers except Chrome and Firefox on Win7-64bit where the WebDriver method works.  However, the WebDriver method craps out on Windows 8, FYI.

For Macs, I use apple scripts to manage setting the window to frontmost and setting the size.

It be nice if there was one method that handled it all but my experience is to find out what works for each case and use that.

Good luck!

yor need to mention the following windowMaximize() like

ex:      selenium.windowMaximize();
