Selenium Action class

The Selenium Action class can perform various interactions on a web page, such as mouse movements, drag and drop, keyboard actions, etc.

Example

In this example, we will test the following web page, which uses JQuery and displays two elements to support drag-and-drop operations. Before Test After Test Here’s a basic example of how you can use the Action class in Python with Selenium:

# Google Homepage Test Example
# www.TestingDocs.com 

import unittest
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
import time

class GoogleTest(unittest.TestCase): 
    
    def setUp(self):
        self.driver = webdriver.Firefox()
        
        
    def test_method(self):
        driver=self.driver 
        driver.get("https://testingdocs2016.blogspot.com/2016/06/drag-and-drop.html")
        actions = ActionChains(driver)
        draggable = driver.find_element(By.ID,"dragme")
        droppable = driver.find_element(By.ID, "drophere")
        actions.drag_and_drop(draggable, droppable).perform()
        driver.implicitly_wait(60)
        self.assertEqual(droppable.text,"Successfully Dropped!") 
        
    def tearDown(self):
        self.driver.quit()
        
            
if __name__ == '__main__': 
    unittest.main()
