What are the Multiple Ways to Click Web Elements in WebDriver?

Multiple Click Methods in WebDriver

Beyond the standard click() method and ASCII key sendKeys() approach for left-clicking web elements, WebDriver offers additional options for triggering click actions:

Using SendKeys with RETURN/ENTER Keys:

yourelement.sendKeys(Keys.RETURN) or yourelement.sendKeys(Keys.ENTER) simulate hitting the RETURN/ENTER key on the focused element.

JavaScript Execution:

• Non-native JavaScript Executor:

  • ((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript("arguments[0].click();", yourelement) directly triggers a click event.

• JavaScript Library:

  • JavascriptLibrary jsLib = new JavascriptLibrary();
  • jsLib.callEmbeddedSelenium(driver, "triggerMouseEventAt", we, "click", "0,0"); simulates a click at specific coordinates (0,0 in this case).

These methods provide flexibility in click handling, particularly when dealing with complex web elements or when direct click() fails.
