findElements

public java.util.List<MobileElement> findElements(org.openqa.selenium.By by)

Description copied from interface: WebElement

Find all elements within the current context using the given mechanism. When using xpath be aware that webdriver follows standard conventions: a search prefixed with "//" will search the entire document, not just the children of this current node. Use ".//" to limit your search to the children of this WebElement. This method is affected by the 'implicit wait' times in force at the time of execution. When implicitly waiting, this method will return as soon as there are more than 0 items in the found collection, or will return an empty list if the timeout is reached.

Specified by:

findElements in interface SearchContext

Specified by:

findElements in interface WebElement

Parameters:

by - The locating mechanism to use

Returns:

A list of all WebElements, or an empty list if nothing matches.

By, WebDriver.Timeouts

findElement

public T findElement(org.openqa.selenium.By by)

Description copied from interface: WebElement

Find the first WebElement using the given method. See the note in WebElement.findElements(By) about finding via XPath. This method is affected by the 'implicit wait' times in force at the time of execution. The findElement(..) invocation will return a matching row, or try again repeatedly until the configured timeout is reached. findElement should not be used to look for non-present elements, use WebElement.findElements(By) and assert zero length response instead.

Specified by:

findElement in interface SearchContext

Specified by:

findElement in interface WebElement

Overrides:

findElement in class org.openqa.selenium.remote.RemoteWebElement

Parameters:

by - The locating mechanism

Returns:

The first matching element on the current context.

Get the value of a given CSS property. Color values should be returned as rgba strings, so, for example if the "background-color" property is set as "green" in the HTML source, the returned value will be "rgba(0, 255, 0, 1)". Note that shorthand CSS properties (e.g. background, font, border, border-top, margin, margin-top, padding, padding-top, list-style, outline, pause, cue) are not returned, in accordance with the DOM CSS2 specification - you should directly access the longhand properties (e.g. background-color) to access the desired values.

Parameters:

propertyName - the css property name of the element

Returns:

The current, computed value of the property.

Throws:

org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException - because it may not work against native app UI.
