Selenium Python Automation Testing from Scratch and Frameworks - What is a JavaScript Executor?

The video tutorial explains the use of JavaScript Executor in Selenium for accessing and manipulating DOM elements. It covers how JavaScript can be integrated with Selenium to enhance automation capabilities, especially when Selenium's native methods fall short. The tutorial provides practical examples of using JavaScript Executor to handle text input and retrieval, demonstrating the execute script method to run JavaScript commands within Selenium scripts.

What is the primary role of JavaScript Executor in Selenium?

• To execute JavaScript code within Selenium scripts

• To create HTML documents

• To manage Selenium test cases

• To replace Selenium WebDriver

What does DOM stand for?

• Document Object Model

• Document Oriented Model

• Data Oriented Model

• Data Object Model

How does JavaScript DOM differ from Selenium in accessing web page elements?

• JavaScript DOM can access more elements than Selenium

• JavaScript DOM is slower than Selenium

• JavaScript DOM requires more code than Selenium

• JavaScript DOM is less reliable than Selenium

Why might Selenium fail to access certain elements on a web page?

• Due to complex website designs

• Because Selenium is outdated

• Because JavaScript is not supported

• Due to incorrect Selenium installation

What method does Selenium provide to execute JavaScript code?

• executeScript

• runJavaScript

• executeJava

• runScript

In the practical example, what method is used to retrieve text from an input field?

• fetchValue

• getText

• getAttribute

• retrieveText

What is the purpose of the 'value' attribute in JavaScript DOM?

• To retrieve the text present in an input field

• To change the font of an element

• To set the color of an element

• To define the size of an element

How can you access elements by name using JavaScript DOM?

• document.getElementByTagName

• document.getElementsByClassName

• document.getElementById

• document.getElementsByName

What is the benefit of using JavaScript Executor when Selenium methods fail?

• It enhances the security of the test

• It speeds up the test execution

• It allows continued automation by executing JavaScript directly

• It reduces the code complexity

What is the significance of the 'executeScript' method in Selenium?

• It is used to stop Selenium WebDriver

• It is used to compile Java code

• It is used to start Selenium WebDriver

• It allows the execution of JavaScript code within Selenium tests
