How to acheive page scroll and how to verify that it is getting scrolled ?

[Pavithra]

I have a scenario below, kindly let me know whether it is automatable using webdriver. If so, how ?

Scenario:
In the mail application, select the message
Scroll in the middle of the read page  --  How to do scrolling ?
Click on up arrow in keyboard

Expected result:
Verify this should move the content going up in a very short increment on read window -- How to verify this ?

Thanks,
Pavithra

try this,

int pixel=500;
((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript("if(window.screen)
{window.scrollBy(0,"+pixel+");};");

Thanks Sasi.
This is for scrolling rt ? and Is there a way to verify whether the page is getting scrolled up or down ?

And does this works for all browsers ? IE, Firefox, Chrome ?
Anyway I will try out in above browsers.

I haven't tried that ,but you can use java script code to find
position after scrolling or similar and execute that in selenium.

 driver.executeScript("scroll(0,20000)");

works on win7 32-bit webdriver2 with java

Usage of JavaScript is not recommended . Since it wont work in all the browsers.

I use javascript across all browsers and devices and works with very little error.  Here are the commands in js.  You will have to manage the driver 

//scroll the page.. you can change the 'window' object to be another scrollable element if need be

window.scrollTo(x,y); //notice there's nothing to return in webdriver code

//return how far the page is scrolled down - returns integer to webdriver hence the return statements - change to Xoffset or scrollLeft for scrolling to the right.

if (window.pageYOffset) return window.pageYOffset;else if (window.document.documentElement.scrollTop)return window.document.documentElement.scrollTop;else return window.document.body.scrollTop;

 

Offsets will not be as expected on mobile devices for pages that are scaled down to fit the viewport.

Enjoy.

WebDriver is designed to accurately simulate the way that a user will interact with a web application. A common approach for simulating user input is to make use of Javascript to synthesize and fire the series of events that an app would see if a real user were to perform the same interaction. This "synthesized events" approach is fraught with difficulties as each browser, and sometimes different versions of the same browser, fire slightly different events with slightly different values. To complicate matters, most browsers won't allow a user to interact in this way with form elements such as file input elements for security reasons.

Where possible WebDriver uses the alternative approach of firing events at the OS level. As these "native events" aren't generated by the browser this approach circumvents the security restrictions placed on synthesized events and, because they are OS specific, once they are working for one browser on a particular platform reusing the code in another browser is relatively easy

Thank you

Cheers.
