Question

How can I select an option from a dropdown using Ruby Selenium Webdriver?

Answer 1

Hey Swasti, you can try following lines of code to perform selection of an option from a dropdown:

driver = Selenium::WebDriver.for :firefox
driver.navigate.to "http://facebook.com"

options = select_list.find_elements(:tag_name => "option")
options.each do |opt|
  if opt.text == "March"
    opt.click
    break
  end
end

This works fine.

drop = driver.find_element(:id, "month")
choose = Selenium::WebDriver::Support::Select.new(drop)
choose.select_by(:text, "Feb")
