get the count of the items in the list box

[sam6]

Hi,

I am newbie to selenium.
I have a select list box with few items.
I need to get the count of items in the list box and access each of
them.

can you please let me know on how to get this
thanks

Try GetXpathCount(). Just provide the common Xpath correctly and you
should be able to count them.

For accessing them you can use a For() loop and access each one of
them.

Hi sam,

to get the count of the items in the select list box we have to use
Xpath.

see the following example

Xpath = "//div[@class='one']/select/option" ---->
this is the xpath of a list box

Pass this xpath to getXpathCount() like as

Number count = getXpathCount(Xpath);
int listCount = count.intValue(); ---> this gives
the value of the list items in the select box

If any problem revert back

this answers my first question.
I also need to access the each item available in the list.
how can i do that?

thanks

If your listbox/dropdown is identified by the below xpath
WebElement elemet = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//select[@id='destination']"));

You can add "option" to the xpath with its value to access the item in the list.
WebElement wel =
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//select[@id='dropdown_id']/option[@value='BillPay']"));

You also have "Select" classs in
"org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.Select" (If you are using webdriver
2.0 rc2).

Select sel = new
Select(driver.findElement(By.xpath("//select[@id='destination']")));
sel.selectByVisibleText("Bill pay");

You have some more methods like getOptions to get all the list of
items from listitem.

I am using selenium 1.0.

I tried the xpathcount to get the count of items in the list..but it
returned 1 though it has several items.
below is the code:

System.out.println("notAudited:"+_browser.getXpathCount("//
select[@name='notAudited']"));

pls correct me if this is wrong
Also, i need to access each option in the select list.pls share a
sample


thanks

Try:

System.out.println("notAudited:"+_browser.getXpathCount("//select[@name='not

Audited']/option"));

Hi Sam,

Keep that Xpath in for loop so that you can access all the items

for( int i = 0; i <= listCount; i++)
{
String text = selenium.getText("//div[@class='one']/select/
option["+ i +"]");
Reporter.log("List item is " +text);
}

Please revert me if not works.
