How to Handle Dropdown in Selenium webdriver

I have paid $400 for Udemy to learn online and they couldn't explain this drop-down thing at all , it sucked but you made it look so easy ... Just superb 👌

Hi Sir, After selecting, I'm trying to deselect same, selection is working but deselect is throwing expection like below. Please guide me.
Code: WebElement Year =driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("select[id='year']"));
Select Year1=new Select(Year);
Year1.selectByVisibleText("1995");
System.out.println(Year1);
Thread.sleep(3000);
Year1.deselectByVisibleText("1995");
System.out.println(Year1);

Expection : java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: You may only deselect options of a multi-select

Hi, I have a question regarding Selenium.

let's say that I am using selenium to create a routine automation instead of an test automation.

And this routine will help not just me but others colleagues also. These colleagues don't know anything about programming. So I wish I could create some "desktop application".

like an icon that they just click on it and the script will run. Without need of the Eclipse IDE or anything else.

The point is that the webdriver follow a path, and this path is from my computer. also, there is a file, and the path if from my user. so I not sure on how to do it

Can you help with that? I appreciate, thank you so much.

If you know some other way, it is not necessary to be a desk app, could be online, on a server, I don't know.

Hi Mukesh, Im wondering how is your script working without setting system.set property?

Hi thank you for your video but I'm unable to select a value from a dropdown which shows the States you can see in the following html tag:
<div class="col-sm-4 form-group">
<label id="xstateLabel">@lang('messages.state')</label>
<select class="form-control js-select" style="width: 100%" <?php if (strpos($lockedfield, 'state') !== false) {echo 'disabled xlocked="true"';}else {echo 'xlocked="false" onblur=""';} ?> id="xstate" name="xstate">
<option value="">@lang('messages.state')</option>
<option value="AL" <?php if(isset($usr->state) && $usr->state=='AL'){echo 'selected';} ?>>Alabama</option>
<option value="AK" <?php if(isset($usr->state) && $usr->state=='AK'){echo 'selected';} ?>>Alaska</option>
<option value="AZ" <?php if(isset($usr->state) && $usr->state=='AZ'){echo 'selected';} ?>>Arizona</option>
<option value="AR" <?php if(isset($usr->state) && $usr->state=='AR'){echo 'selected';} ?>>Arkansas</option>
<option value="CA" <?php if(isset($usr->state) && $usr->state=='CA'){echo 'selected';} ?>>California</option>
<option value="CO" <?php if(isset($usr->state) && $usr->state=='CO'){echo 'selected';} ?>>Colorado</option>
<option value="CT" <?php if(isset($usr->state) && $usr->state=='CT'){echo 'selected';} ?>>Connecticut</option>
*
*
*
</select>
</div>

I created the java function:

public void select() {
Select drpState = new Select(driver.findElement(By.id("xstate")));
drpState.selectByValue("CA");
}


and
public void select() {
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.id("xstate")));

Select drpState = new Select(driver.findElement(By.id("xstate")));

drpState.selectByValue("CA");

}
But I'm getting the error:

org.openqa.selenium.ElementNotVisibleException: element not interactable: Element is not currently visible and may not be manipulated
(Session info: chrome=75.0.3770.100)
...

Any suggestions please, I have been looking for a solution to this error for a some weeks. Thank you very much in advance

Hi Mukesh, I couldn't find your video for handling drop-downs with div tags. All the content I am trying to automate is under div tags. There is no li or select tags.

Nicely Explained :-P

In this example 1 if I chose to have following code
month_dd.selectByIndex(2);
month_dd.selectByValue("2");

if both code return same results then what is the difference between selectByIndex and selectByValue?
or
I am missing something ...
