The Mouse Utility Class

The Mouse utility class contains all kinds of methods which allow you to use or at least simulate the use (depending on the WebDriver implementation) of mouse actions. These are the currently implemented mouse actions:

• click(PageObject)
• doubleClick(PageObject)
• contextClick(PageObject)
• moveTo(PageObject)
• moveToEach(PageObject, PageObject...)
• moveToEach(Collection<PageObject>)

Mouse.click()

Executes a click on the given PageObject by first moving the mouse to the center of it.

Mouse.doubleClick()

Executes a double click on the given PageObject by first moving the mouse to the center of it.

Mouse.contextClick()

Executes a context click on the given PageObject by first moving the mouse to the center of it.

Mouse.moveToEach()

Moves the mouse to each of the given PageObjects in turn. The page objects have to be visible in order to move the mouse to it. This method can be used to navigate dynamically displayed menu structures because it waits for each page object to be displayed before moving the mouse to it.

Mouse.moveTo()

Moves the mouse to the given PageObject. The page object has to be visible in order to move the mouse to it.

Examples

// clicks a button
Mouse.click(button);
 
// double clicks an image
Mouse.doubleClick(image);
 
// moves the mouse to the link
Mouse.moveTo(link);
 
// moves the mouse to each link as they appear
Mouse.moveToEach(fileMenu, fileMenuNew, fileMenuNewPage);
