Here is the list of Selenium Interview Questions which are recently asked in Hexaware company. These questions are included for both Freshers and Experienced professionals. Our Selenium Training has Answered all the below Questions.

Round 1:

1. Brief me about your automation career.

Selenium supports the different types of locators, such as:

ID
Name
Class Name
Tag Name

ID: driver.findElement(By.id(“element_id”))

Name: driver.findElement(By.name(“element_name”))

Class Name: driver.findElement(By.className(“element_class”))

2. Explain your framework?

JavaScriptExecutor is an interface provided to execute JavaScript code within the context of the browser. It is useful when Selenium’s WebDriver commands are not efficient.

3. How would you connect to your excel? Which class would you use for it?

In Selenium, use the Apache POI library to connect to an Excel file. It is a popular Java API for working with Microsoft Office documents. The Relevant classes used to read from or write to an Excel file are:

FileInputStream
XSSFWorkbook or HSSFWorkbook
XSSFSheet or HSSFSheet
XSSFRow or HSSFRow
XSSFCell or HSSFCell

4. What is the machine readable format or which class converts any of your document/file into an object?( let me know if you didn’t understand the question. I can explain)

The conversion of a document or file into a machine-readable format or an object is associated with serialization and deserialization processes. In Java, it can be achieved using various libraries, like:

JSON
XML
Excel
Serialized objects

5. How would you click on a button on which webelement.click doesn’t work?

WebElement element = driver.findElement(By Locators); element.click(); ((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript(return arguments[0].click();, element); Actions actions = new Actions(driver); actions.moveToElement(element); actions.click(element); Action action = actions.build(); action.perform();

6. Tell me about your career.

17. How to read data from excel sheet using apace poi?

To Read and Write Excel file in Java, Apache provides a very famous library POI. This library is capable enough to read and write both XLS and XLSX file format of Excel.

To read XLS files, an HSSF implementation is provided by POI library.

18. How you will handle multiple windows starting from parent window?

import org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement; import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver; public class childWindow { public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException { System.setProperty(webdriver.chrome.driver,./src/resources/chromedrive); WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(); driver.manage().window().maximize(); driver.get(https://www.credosystemz.com/); // Open new window by clicking the button driver.findElement(By.id(windowButton)).click(); // Click on the new window element and read the text displayed on the window WebElement text = driver.findElement(By.id(sampleHeading)); // Fetching the text using method and printing it System.out.println(Element found using text: + text.getText()); driver.quit(); } }

19. Different types of waits in selenium webdriver and explain it with example?

Implicit wait

Syntax of Implicit wait driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS); </code></pre> Explicit wait <pre><code style ="color:white;"> wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//div[contains(text(),'COMPOSE')]"))); drv.findElement(By.xpath("//div[contains(text(),'COMPOSE')]")).click(); </code></pre> Fluent wait <pre><cod style ="color:white;"e> Wait wait = new FluentWait(WebDriver reference) .withTimeout(timeout, SECONDS) .pollingEvery(timeout, SECONDS) .ignoring(Exception.class);

20. Difference between assert and verify?

Assert	Verify
We use Assert when we have to validate critical functionality.	At times, we might require the test method to continue execution even after the failure of the assertion statements.
In case of false condition, the next text case of the suite will be executed.	In case of false condition, the next test step of the same text case will continue.

21. Assume we have a login page, we have entered login name correctly and entered wrong password and then we tried to login to the application. The password textbox will be highlighted in red color. How you will verify it?

22. Assume you have a login page, you entered username and password correctly and you clicked login button. Now the application doesn’t

23. Response you after clicking on login button how you will handle it in your selenium code?

24. Challenges that you have faced in selenium?

Most common challenges are,

Selenium supports Web based Applications only, it doesn’t support Desktop Applications/Windows based Applications.

Selenium doesn’t have built-n Object Repository like UFT/QTP to maintain objects/elements in a centralized location, but we can overcome this limitation using Page Object model.

Selenium WebDriver (main tool in selenium’s tool suite) doesn’t have IDE (Integrated development Environment), so we need to write code for every Test step.

Selenium doesn’t have built-in Result Reporting facility, we can overcome this drawback using Testing Framework Assert Methods/Commands or using programming features.

25. Explain with example how you will handle file uploads?

package newproject; import org.openqa.selenium.*; import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver; public class PG9 { public static void main(String[] args) { System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","C:\\geckodriver.exe"); String baseUrl = "http://demo.guru99.com/test/upload/"; WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(); driver.get(baseUrl); WebElement uploadElement = driver.findElement(By.id("uploadfile_0")); // enter the file path onto the file-selection input field uploadElement.sendKeys("C:\\newhtml.html"); // check the "I accept the terms of service" check box driver.findElement(By.id("terms")).click(); // click the "UploadFile" button driver.findElement(By.name("send")).click(); } }

26. How to full snapshots in chrome browser?

Syntax of snapshots: File screenshotFile = ((TakesScreenshot)driver).getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE);

27. How to select the drop down value and explain it with example?

package newpackage; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.Select; import org.openqa.selenium.By; public class accessDropDown { public static void main(String[] args) { System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","C:\\geckodriver.exe"); String baseURL = " https://www.credosystemz.com/"; WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(); driver.get(baseURL); Select drpCountry = new Select(driver.findElement(By.name("country"))); drpCountry.selectByVisibleText("ANTARCTICA"); //Selecting Items in a Multiple SELECT elements driver.get("http://jsbin.com/osebed/2"); Select fruits = new Select(driver.findElement(By.id("fruits"))); fruits.selectByVisibleText("Banana"); fruits.selectByIndex(1); } </code></pre> <h3>28. Program to print fibonacci series?</h3> <pre><code> class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { int n = 10, firstTerm = 0, secondTerm = 1; System.out.println("Fibonacci Series till " + n + " terms:"); for (int i = 1; i <= n; ++i) { System.out.print(firstTerm + ", "); // compute the next term int nextTerm = firstTerm + secondTerm; firstTerm = secondTerm; secondTerm = nextTerm; } } } Output Fibonacci Series till 10 terms: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34,

29. Have you worked in SOAP UI, if so tell me what will you do with that?

SOAP UI can be integrated with Selenium for enhancing functionalities. The simplest and easiest way to integrate Selenium with SOAP UI is to use ‘Groovy’. SOAP UI completely supports Groovy.
