How to get list of web element in selenium java

The List<WebElement> class in Selenium WebDriver is a powerful tool that enables you to easily and quickly manipulate web elements on a web page. With the help of List<WebElement>, you can access, modify, and interact with web elements such as buttons, links, images, tables, and more. 

To use List<WebElement> in Selenium WebDriver, you first need to locate the elements on the page using the findElement() and findElements() methods. You can then store the elements in a List<WebElement> object.

Later use the List<WebElement> methods to access and manipulate the web elements. 

For example, 

• We can use List<WebElement>.get(index) to get a specific element based on its index in the list. 
• We can also use List<WebElement>.size() to get the number of elements stored in the list. This is useful for looping through the list and performing certain actions on each element. 

Code Sample:

import org.openqa.selenium.By; 

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; 

import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement; 

import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver; 

public class ListWebElementExample { 

public static void main(String[] args) { 

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "Path to chromedriver"); 

WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(); 

driver.get("https://www.google.com"); 

//Find list of web elements 

List<WebElement> listElements = driver.findElements(By.tagName("a")); 

System.out.println("Total number of elements present : "+listElements.size()); 

//Iterate through the list and print the text of each element 

for(int i=0; i<listElements.size(); i++) 

{ 

System.out.println(listElements.get(i).getText()); 

} 

driver.quit(); 

} 

}
