Mouse Interactions

Explore how to automate advanced mouse interactions in Selenium WebDriver using the Actions API. Learn to perform double clicks, click-and-hold, drag-and-drop, slider movements, and precise clicks on images. This lesson equips you with skills to simulate real user mouse behaviors for robust web application testing.

We'll cover the following...

Double click a control

We can double click on a control by:

Javascript (babel-node)
driver.get("file://" + __dirname + "/../../site/text_field.html");
var elem = driver.findElement(By.id("quickfill"));
driver.actions()
      .doubleClick(elem)
      .perform();
driver.findElement(By.id("pass")).getAttribute("value").then(function(pwd_value) {
  assert.equal("ABC", pwd_value);			
})

Move the mouse to a control - Mouse Over

We can pair the mouse pointer with the desired element by:

Javascript (babel-node)
var elem = driver.findElement(By.id("email"));
driver.actions()
      .mouseMove(elem)
      .perform();

Click and hold - select multiple items
