Question

I am using Selenium Java. I need to enter value into text box and press down arrow to select suggestions and then press Enter key.

So, my question is how to press Down Arrow key followed by "Enter" key?

Answer 1

You can import Keys and use these.

import org.openqa.selenium.Keys

WebElement.sendKeys(Keys.DOWN);
WebElement.sendKeys(Keys.RETURN);

Edit

You could probably use one sendKeys() call:

WebElement.sendKeys(Keys.DOWN, Keys.RETURN);

Answer 2

For Ruby, this would be:

input_element = @driver.find_element(:id,'input_id')
input_element.send_keys(:arrow_down)
