Action chain execution (perform) in Selenium Java - Interactive Code Practice

Practice - 5 Tasks

1fill in blank

easy

Complete the code to perform the action chain.

Selenium Java

Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
actions.moveToElement(element).[1]();

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Cclick

DsendKeys

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using build() without perform() does not execute the actions.

Using click() or sendKeys() directly without perform() will cause errors.

The perform() method executes the action chain built so far.

Complete the code to build and perform the action chain.

Selenium Java

Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
actions.click(element).[1]();

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Calling perform() directly without build() when multiple actions are chained.

Using sendKeys() or release() incorrectly here.

The build() method compiles all actions into a single composite action.

3fill in blank

Fix the error in the code to correctly perform the action chain.

Selenium Java

Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
actions.moveToElement(element).click().[1]();

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Calling build() without perform() means actions are not executed.

Using sendKeys() or release() here is incorrect.

After building the action chain, perform() must be called to execute it.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to build and perform a double click action.

Selenium Java

Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
actions.doubleClick(element).[1]().[2]();

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Calling perform() before build() causes errors.

Using release() or sendKeys() here is incorrect.

First, build() compiles the action, then perform() executes it.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to build and perform a drag and drop action.

Selenium Java

Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
actions.clickAndHold(source).moveToElement(target).[1]().[2]().[3]();

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Forgetting to release the mouse button causes the drag to fail.

Calling perform() before build() causes errors.

The sequence is: release() to drop, build() to compile, and perform() to execute.
