How do I select a value from a drop-down menu using Selenium in Python?
Hi Apurva,
When you’re working with Selenium and Python to choose a value from a dropdown menu, there are a few ways to go about it.
One method involves using the Select class from selenium.webdriver.support.ui. Here’s a snippet of code demonstrating how to do it:
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
select = Select(driver.find_element_by_id(‘dropdown_id’)) select.select_by_visible_text(‘Option Text’)
This approach uses the Select class to handle the dropdown. It provides methods like select_by_visible_text, select_by_value, and select_by_index to choose an option based on its visible text, value, or index. This method is recommended when dealing with traditional elements.
