Click on a Link in Selenium

We can click a link in Selenium by the following locators along with click() method.

• By link text.

• By partial link text.

Code Implementation with link text locator.

Example

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.Keys;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
public class LinkScripting {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver",    "C:\Users\ghs6kor\Desktop\Java\chromedriver.exe");
      WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
      String url = "https://www.tutorialspoint.com/index.htm";
      driver.get(url);
      driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
      driver.findElement(By.linkText("Coding Ground")).click();
      driver.close();
   }
}

Code Implementation with partial link text locator.

Example

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.Keys;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
public class PartialLinkScripting {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\Users\ghs6kor\Desktop\Java\chromedriver.exe");
      WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
      String url = " https://www.tutorialspoint.com/index.htm";
      driver.get(url);
      driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
      driver.findElement(By.partialLinkText("Coding")).click();
      driver.close();
   }
}
