Question
How does Selenium WebDriver's isDisplayed() method work?
We can work with isDisplayed() method in Selenium webdriver. This method checks if a webelement is visible on the page. If it is visible, then the method returns a true value, else it returns false.
First of all, we have to identify the element with any of the locators like id, class, name, xpath or css and then apply isDisplayed() method on it.
Syntax
boolean s= driver.findElement(By.id("txt-bx")).isDisplayed();
Let us check if the element About Careers at Tutorials Point is displayed on the page. Since it is available it shall return a true value.
Example
import org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement; import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver; import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit; public class VisibleElement{ public static void main(String[] args) { System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\Users\\ghs6kor\\Desktop\\Java\\chromedriver.exe"); WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(); driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS); driver.get("https://www.tutorialspoint.com/about/about_careers.htm"); // identify element WebElement p=driver.findElement(By.xpath("//h1")); //isDisplayed() to check if element visible boolean s= p.isDisplayed(); System.out.println("The return value: " + s); driver.close(); } }
