Scrolling using Selenium WebDriver with Java

Question

I am using Selenium WebDriver to automate my browser tests. My browser header is floating and is always present irrespective of the browser scroll.

Answer 1

For scrolling down:

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver",
                   "/home/shreetesh/chromedriver");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(); 
String url = "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page";
driver.get(url);
JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
js.executeScript("scroll(0, 25000);");

To scrolling up just replace the value of scroll with (2500, 0).

Answer 2

I recently had this problem due to a Drupal menu blocking the element when I ran this code:

public void scrollTo(WebElement x) {
        ((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript("arguments[0].scrollIntoView(true);", x);
        }

After referencing this page, I updated to set the boolean to false using this code, and it works great:

public void scrollTo(WebElement x) {
        ((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript("arguments[0].scrollIntoView(false);", x);
        }

Answer 3

Scroll to top can be done:

private void scrollToTop() {
    JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) webDriver;
    js.executeScript("window.scrollTo(0, 0);");
}

Answer 4

    Locatable hoverItem = (Locatable) driver.findElement(By.xpath("//li[text()='Reklama w Google']"));
    int y = hoverItem.getCoordinates().getLocationOnScreen().getY();
    ((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript("window.scrollBy(0,"+y+");");

Answer 5

Use below code for scrolling up and scrolling down

Actions dragger = new Actions(driver);

WebElement draggablePartOfScrollbar = driver.findElement(By.xpath("<Scroll bar Element >"));

// drag downwards

int numberOfPixelsToDragTheScrollbarDown = 50;

for (int i=10 ; i<500 ; i=i+numberOfPixelsToDragTheScrollbarDown) {
    try {
        // this causes a gradual drag of the scroll bar, 10 units at a time
        dragger.moveToElement(draggablePartOfScrollbar).clickAndHold().moveByOffset(0,numberOfPixelsToDragTheScrollbarDown).release().perform();
        Thread.sleep(1000L);
    } catch(Exception e1){}
} 

// now drag opposite way (downwards)
numberOfPixelsToDragTheScrollbarDown = -50;
for (int i=500;i>10;i=i+numberOfPixelsToDragTheScrollbarDown){
    // this causes a gradual drag of the scroll bar, -10 units at a time
    dragger.moveToElement(draggablePartOfScrollbar).clickAndHold().moveByOffset(0,numberOfPixelsToDragTheScrollbarDown).release().perform();
    Thread.sleep(1000L);
}

If you want to scroll on the firefox window using selenium webdriver, one of the way is to use javaScript in the java code, The javeScript code to scroll down is as follows:

JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
                    js.executeScript("window.scrollTo(0,Math.max(document.documentElement.scrollHeight," +
                    "document.body.scrollHeight,document.documentElement.clientHeight));");
