Download Selenium jar from firefox Browser

This post objective is to illustrate how to use Selenium from Firefox Browser.
Java code snippet is here:

@Test

 public void testDownload() throws Exception {

  WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(FirefoxDriverProfile());

  driver.manage().window().maximize();

  driver.get("http://seleniumhq.org");

  Thread.sleep(5000);

  driver.findElement(By.linkText("Download")).click();

  Thread.sleep(5000);

  driver.findElement(By.linkText("2.46.0")).click();

  Thread.sleep(5000);

 }


 public static FirefoxProfile FirefoxDriverProfile() {

  FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile();

  profile.setPreference("browser.download.folderlist", 2);

  profile.setPreference("browser.download.manager.showWhenStarting",false);

  profile.setPreference("browser.download.dir", "E:\\sari\\os");

  profile.setPreference("browser.helperApps.neverAsk.openFile","text/csv,application/x-msexcel,application/excel,application/x-excel,application/vnd.ms-excel,image/png,image/jpeg,text/html,text/plain,application/msword,application/xml,application/java-archive");

  profile.setPreference("browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk","text/csv,application/x-msexcel,application/excel,application/x-excel,application/vnd.ms-excel,image/png,image/jpeg,text/html,text/plain,application/msword,application/xml,application/java-archive");

  profile.setPreference("browser.helperApps.alwaysAsk.force", false);

  profile.setPreference("browser.download.manager.alertOnEXEOpen", false);

  profile.setPreference("browser.download.manager.focusWhenStarting",false);

  profile.setPreference("browser.download.manager.useWindow", false);

  profile.setPreference("browser.download.manager.showAlertOnComplete",false);

  profile.setPreference("browser.download.manager.closeWhenDone", false);

  return profile;

  <firstname>Babu</firstname>

  <lastname>BhayaRaj</lastname>

Java Program:

package SeleniumPrograms;

import java.io.File;

import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;

import javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;

import javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException;

import org.w3c.dom.Document;

import org.w3c.dom.NodeList;

import org.w3c.dom.Node;

import org.w3c.dom.Element;

import java.io.File;

public class ReadforXmlfile {

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

 

File fXmlFile = new File("E:\\sari\\os\\list.xml");//xml file path

DocumentBuilderFactory dbFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();

DocumentBuilder dBuilder = dbFactory.newDocumentBuilder();

Document doc = dBuilder.parse(fXmlFile);

doc.getDocumentElement().normalize();

System.out.println("Root element :" + doc.getDocumentElement().getNodeName());

NodeList nList = doc.getElementsByTagName("emp");

System.out.println("_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_");

for (int temp = 0; temp < nList.getLength(); temp++) {

Node nNode =nList.item(temp);

 

System.out.println("\nCurrent Element :" + nNode.getNodeName());//it will display current element node

 

if (nNode.getNodeType() == Node.ELEMENT_NODE) {

 

Element eElement = (Element) nNode;

 

System.out.println("emp id : " + eElement.getAttribute("id"));

System.out.println("First Name : " + eElement.getElementsByTagName("firstname").item(0).getTextContent());

System.out.println("Last Name : " + eElement.getElementsByTagName("lastname").item(0).getTextContent());

System.out.println("Salary : " + eElement.getElementsByTagName("salary").item(0).getTextContent());

 

}
