Challenge - 5 Problems

❓ Predict Output

What is the output of this Selenium Python code snippet?

Consider the following Selenium code that opens a webpage and prints the title and current URL. What will be printed?

Selenium Python

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

service = Service('/path/to/chromedriver')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=service)
driver.get('https://example.com')
print(driver.title)
print(driver.current_url)
driver.quit()

A

Example Domain
https://example.com/

B

Example Domain
https://www.example.com/

C

example domain
https://example.com

D

Example Domain
https://example.com

💡 Hint

Check the exact title text and URL format of https://example.com in a browser.

The page title of https://example.com is exactly 'Example Domain' with capital letters. The URL returned by driver.current_url includes the trailing slash, so it is 'https://example.com/'.

❓ assertion

intermediate

Which assertion correctly verifies the page title after navigation?

You want to check that after navigating to 'https://example.com', the page title is exactly 'Example Domain'. Which assertion is correct?

Selenium Python

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service

service = Service('/path/to/chromedriver')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=service)
driver.get('https://example.com')

# Which assertion below is correct?

A assert driver.title == 'Example Domain'

B assert driver.title = 'Example Domain'

C assert driver.title.contains('Example Domain')

D assert driver.title != 'Example Domain'

💡 Hint

Remember the syntax for equality comparison in Python assertions.

Option A uses the correct equality operator '==' to compare the title string. Option A uses assignment '=' which is invalid in assert. Option A asserts the opposite. Option A uses a method that does not exist on string objects.

❓ locator

advanced

Which locator strategy is best to retrieve the page title element for testing?

You want to locate the HTML element that contains the page title text on 'https://example.com' for validation. Which locator is best?

A driver.find_element(By.ID, 'title')

B driver.find_element(By.TAG_NAME, 'title')

C driver.find_element(By.CLASS_NAME, 'title')

D driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, 'head > title')

💡 Hint

The page title is inside the
