  • Constructor Details

    • KeyboardActions

      public KeyboardActions(org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver driver)
      Creates a new object to execute actions with the keyboard, using given selenium driver.
      Parameters:
      driver - selenium driver

  • Method Details

    • actions

      protected org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions actions()
      Get selenium interactions actions.
      Returns:
      selenium actions

    • keyDown

      public KeyboardActions keyDown(org.openqa.selenium.Keys theKey)
      Performs a modifier key press. Does not release the modifier key - subsequent interactions may assume it's kept pressed. Note that the modifier key is never released implicitly - either keyUp(theKey) or sendKeys(Keys.NULL) must be called to release the modifier.
      Parameters:
      theKey - Either Keys.SHIFT, Keys.ALT or Keys.CONTROL. If the provided key is none of those, IllegalArgumentException is thrown.
      Returns:
      this object reference to chain calls

      • Actions.keyDown(CharSequence)

    • keyUp

      public KeyboardActions keyUp(org.openqa.selenium.Keys theKey)
      Performs a modifier key release. Releasing a non-depressed modifier key will yield undefined behaviour.
      Parameters:
      theKey - Either Keys.SHIFT, Keys.ALT or Keys.CONTROL.
      Returns:
      this object reference to chain calls
      See Also:
      • Actions.keyUp(CharSequence)

    • sendKeys

      public KeyboardActions sendKeys(CharSequence... keysToSend)
      Sends keys to the active element. This differs from calling WebElement.sendKeys(CharSequence...) on the active element in two ways:
      • The modifier keys included in this call are not released.
      • There is no attempt to re-focus the element - so sendKeys(Keys.TAB) for switching elements should work.
      Parameters:
      keysToSend - The keys.
      Returns:
      A self reference.
