scrolling in text area

[Automation User]

Hi

I am working on automating a web page where I have to agree the terms and conditions to click on 'Continue' button. The terms and conditions are displayed in a text area. I need to scroll down the text area and then click the 'Continue' button or else I will receive error message that I should read the terms and conditions.

How can we achieve scrolling in this case? I am working on Java 1.7 with webdriver and testng.

Thanks

Hi,

Do you have a webpage available publicly where we can see or simulate this functionality?

Hi,

Found this quick solution. It worked for me.

driver.findElementById("abc").click();
    int noOfClicks = 10;
    for(int i = 0 ; i < noOfClicks; i++) {
      driver.findElementById("abc").sendKeys(Keys.ARROW_DOWN); 
    }


Let us know if it works. Incase it dont, providing page as requested in earlier post will be helpful.

WebDriver will automatically scroll down for you when you issue the .click() command on your checkbox, even though it is currently off screen.

Thanks Rajat. I used the below logic you provided. I am able to scroll to only a part of the text area and not completely.
This happens with chrome, but with firefox and IE it seem to work.

Thanks for the help!

Glad that I am able to help.

Further as you mentioned in chrome you are not able to scroll down completely, I am just wondering if you tried increasing the value of variable noOfClicks? If not please try to increase the value from 10 to something more and see if that helps.
