[Solved] Consider the following code snippet:WebElement menu = driver.findElement(By.id("menu"));... System.out.println(tooltip);What will be printed if the tooltip appears only after mouse hover? | Selenium Java

Selenium Java - Actions Class

Consider the following code snippet:

WebElement menu = driver.findElement(By.id("menu"));
Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
actions.moveToElement(menu).perform();
String tooltip = driver.findElement(By.id("tooltip")).getText();
System.out.println(tooltip);

What will be printed if the tooltip appears only after mouse hover?

AEmpty string is printed

BThe tooltip text is printed

CNoSuchElementException is thrown

DStaleElementReferenceException is thrown

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand the hover effect
The moveToElement(menu).perform() simulates mouse hover on the menu element, which triggers the tooltip to appear.
Step 2: Check tooltip retrieval
After hover, the code finds the tooltip element by id and gets its text. Since the tooltip appears on hover, the text will be present and printed.
Final Answer:
The tooltip text is printed -> Option B
Quick Check:
Hover triggers tooltip, so text prints [OK]

Quick Trick: Hover first, then get tooltip text to see it [OK]

Common Mistakes:

MISTAKES

Assuming tooltip is present before hover
Not calling perform() after moveToElement()
Expecting exceptions without missing elements
