How to automate radio button in selenium webdriver

Different operations for the radio button using selenium web driver.

The operations are:

• To select the radio button
• Which one is selected

Navigate to www.qafeast.com/demo, click the radio button tab.

Press F12 in the keyboard and inspect the radio button.

 

Select the radio button:

Selenium webdriver doesn’t provide a special method to select the radio button, we can use click() method to select the radio button.

Python:-

driver.find_element_by_xpath(“//label[text()=’Male’]”).click()

C#:

driver.FindElement(By.XPath(“//label[text()=’Male’]”)).Click();

Java:

driver.findElement(By.xpath(“//label[text()=’Male’]”)).click();

 

To check which one is selected:

Python:

result = driver.find_element_by_xpath(“//input[@value=’Male is selected’]”).is_selected()

if result:

    print(“Male is selected”)

else:

    print(“Male is not selected”)

Output: Boolean value , False

or

Using get_attribute value we can determine using checked property

result = driver.find_element_by_xpath(“//input[@value=’Male is selected’]”).get_attribute(“checked”)

 

 C#

Boolean rdBtn = driver.FindElement(By.XPath(“//input[@value=’Male is selected’]”)).Selected;

if (rdBtn)

{

    Console.WriteLine(“Male is selected”);

}

else

{

    Console.WriteLine(“Male is not selected”);

}

Using getattribute value we can determine using checked property

string rdBt = driver.FindElement(By.XPath(“//input[@value=’Male is selected’]”)).GetAttribute(“checked”);

Java

boolean rdBtn = driver.findElement(By.xpath(“//input[@value=’Male is selected’]”)).isSelected();

if (rdBtn)

{

    System.out.println(“Male is selected”);

}

else

{

    System.out.println(“Male is not selected”);

}

Using getattribute value we can determine using checked property

String rdBt = driver.findElement(By.xpath(“//input[@value=’Male is selected’]”)).getAttribute(“checked”);
