How Can I Click WebElements in WebDriver Beyond the Standard `click()` Method?

Alternative Methods for Clicking on WebElements in WebDriver

Traditionally, WebDriver offers two ways to click on a web element: the click() method and the sendKeys() method with an ASCII value for left-click. However, there are additional options available.

Firstly, you can utilize sendKeys(Keys.RETURN) or sendKeys(Keys.ENTER) methods. These simulate focusing on the element and pressing the RETURN/ENTER key, triggering a click.

Secondly, you can employ JavaScript for clicking. While not a recommended approach, it can be achieved using the non-native JavaScript Executor:

((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript("arguments[0].click();", yourelement);

Alternatively, you can use the JavaScript Library:

JavascriptLibrary jsLib = new JavascriptLibrary();
jsLib.callEmbeddedSelenium(driver, "triggerMouseEventAt", we, "click", "0,0");
