Select an Option from the Right-Click Menu in Selenium Webdriver - Java

Question

I am using Selenium webdriver. I am not able to select (say 2nd) option from the Options opened on right click.

In my current code I am able to right click on webElement but could not select an Option from the list that is opened after right click, as it disappears automatically.

Actions action= new Actions(driver); action.contextClick(productLink).build().perform(); 

So with this code I am able to right click but the right click menu automatically disappears. I want to select say 2nd Option from Right click menu.

Please Help!!!

Answer 1

To select the item from the contextual menu, you have to just move your mouse positions with the use of Key down event like this:-

Actions action= new Actions(driver); action.contextClick(productLink).sendKeys(Keys.ARROW_DOWN).sendKeys(Keys.ARROW_DOWN).sendKeys(Keys.RETURN).build().perform(); 

hope this will works for you. Have a great day :)

Answer 2

*Using Robot class you can do this, Try following code:

Actions action = new Actions(driver); action.contextClick(WebElement).build().perform(); Robot robot = new Robot(); robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_DOWN); robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_DOWN); robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER); robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER); 

[UPDATE]

CAUTION: Your Browser should always be in focus i.e. running in foreground while performing Robot Actions, other-wise any other application in foreground will receive the actions.
