How to save current page source in different name & folder

Question

I would like to use the getPageSource() method to save the current page source under a different name in a nominated folder. e.g. save current page source as Hawai.htm unde

Answer 1

Based on documentation, the getPageSource() might (depends on browser) not return correct content if page has been modified by JavaScript. If you have jQuery, you could use:​

try (FileWriter fstream = new FileWriter("C://Holiday//Hawai.htm");
     BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(fstream)) {
    String content = (String)((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript("return $('html').html();"));
    out.write(content);
} 
catch (Exception e) {...}

Answer 2

getPageSource() will return a String which contains entire page source.

In WebDriver there is no file operations available. For writing that string (page source) to separate file in required location you should use some programming language.

class FileWrite 
{
 public static void main(String args[])
  {
  try{
  // Create file 
  FileWriter fstream = new FileWriter("C://Holiday//Hawai.htm");
  BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(fstream);
  out.write(driver.getPageSource());
  //Close the output stream
  out.close();
  }catch (Exception e){//Catch exception if any
  System.err.println("Error: " + e.getMessage());
  }
  }
}
