selenium choose iframe code example
Example: iframes in selenium
Iframes are basically <html> inside of another <html>.
Selenium can only focus one thing at a time.
Therefore, if we have iframe on the page,
we need to SWITCH driver's focus to the inner iframe
to be able to perform any action with Selenium.
-> There are 3 ways to switch to iframes
1- Locating it (the iframe), just as another webelement.
WebElement iframe = driver.findElement(By.locator);
driver.switchTo().frame(iframe); --> we pass the webelement of iframe
2- byIndex number of the iframe: driver.switchTo().frame(0);
We just need to understand which iframe we need to
switch to, then we just pass the index number of it.
3- byId or byName attribute value:
driver.switchTo().frame("idValue"); driver.switchTo().frame("nameValue");
