Hi Miro!

To test scrolling of a web page in Selenium pytest testing, you can use the following steps -

  1. Scroll to the bottom of a web page

Below is the line of code to Scroll to the bottom of a web page -

driver.execute_script("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight);")

  1. Infinite Scroll

Below is the line of code to scroll a page with infinite loading -

SCROLL_PAUSE_TIME = 0.5

# Get scroll height
last_height = driver.execute_script("return document.body.scrollHeight")

#controls how many times scrolled to bottom
scroll_pass = 0

#change to True for infinite scroll
while scroll_pass < 10:
    # Scroll down to bottom
    driver.execute_script("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight);")

    # Wait to load page
    time.sleep(SCROLL_PAUSE_TIME)

    # Calculate new scroll height and compare with last scroll height
    new_height = driver.execute_script("return document.body.scrollHeight")
    if new_height == last_height:
        break
    last_height = new_height 
    scroll_passs+=1
