Robot API In Selenium WebDriver (Selenium Course) - Lecture 20

In this video, we are going to learn how to handle the System popup using Robot API.

Selenium Webdriver cannot handle these OS pop-ups/applications.

Robot Class methods can be used to interact with keyboard/mouse events while doing browser automation. Alternatively AutoIT can be used, but its drawback is that it generates an executable file (exe) which will only work on windows, so it is not a good option to use.

Some commonly and popular used methods of Robot Class during web automation:
→ keyPress(): Example: robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_DOWN) : This method with press down arrow key of Keyboard
→ mousePress() : Example : robot.mousePress(InputEvent.BUTTON3_DOWN_MASK) : This method will press the right click of your mouse.
→ mouseMove() : Example: robot.mouseMove(point.getX(), point.getY()) : This will move mouse pointer to the specified X and Y coordinates.
vkeyRelease() : Example: robot.keyRelease(KeyEvent.VK_DOWN) : This method with release down arrow key of Keyboard
→ mouseRelease() : Example: robot.mouseRelease(InputEvent.BUTTON3_DOWN_MASK) : This method will release the right click of your mouse

Benefits of Robot Class
→ Robot Class can simulate Keyboard and Mouse Event
→ Robot Class can help in upload/download of files when using selenium web driver
→ Robot Class can easily be integrated with current automation framework (keyword, data-driven or hybrid)
→ To handle this we use Robot class (by creating an instance of Robot Class in your code say Robot robot = new Robot()) . Robot class us present in AWT package of JDK.
→ To press down arrow key of Keyboard we use (robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_DOWN))
→ To press TAB key of keyboard (we use robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_TAB))
→ To press Enter key we use (robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER)).
