import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;

public class GmailDemo {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

            WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

            driver.manage().window().maximize();

            String url = "https://accounts.google.com/signin";

            driver.get(url);

            driver.findElement(By.id("identifierId")).sendKeys("raj8805"); 

            //driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(20, TimeUnit.SECONDS);      

            WebDriverWait wait=new WebDriverWait(driver, 20);               

            driver.findElement(By.xpath("//span[@class='RveJvd snByac']")).click();         

            driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(50, TimeUnit.SECONDS);        

            driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@class='whsOnd zHQkBf']")).sendKeys("asassassa");             

            driver.findElement(By.xpath("//span[@class='RveJvd snByac']")).click(); 

    }  

}

The problem is that, after mail id page, my password is getting written in the id box option & the server redirects to next password page. I want to ask, what should I do so that my password would be entered only in password page?

It works PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks

if you are looking for to read the gmail message/mail, it is easy to do it with google api's which can help to read/search/compose/edit emails.

https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/guides/

Hi Vishwa, I agree with you. Google Api helps in reading or searching for emails in gmail.

WebDriver driver = null;

try {

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "path of chrome driver");

}

catch(Exception ex) {

ex.printStackTrace();

System.out.println("Error in getting driver -> "+ex.getLocalizedMessage());

}

driver = new ChromeDriver();

driver.get("https://accounts.google.com/signin");

driver.manage().window().maximize();

driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

driver.findElement(By.id("identifierId")).sendKeys("your email", Keys.ENTER);

WebDriverWait wait=new WebDriverWait(driver, 5);               

        //driver.findElement(By.xpath("//span[@class='CwaK9']")).click();         

        driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

        WebElement element = wait.until(

            ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.id("password")));

        driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@name='password']")).sendKeys("your password");

        

        driver.findElement(By.xpath("//span[@class='RveJvd snByac']")).click();

Answer 1

Check the below code:

Here is the working code block to login into your Gmail account through a valid set of credentials-

    System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","C:\\your_directory\\geckodriver.exe");

    WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

    driver.manage().window().maximize();

    String url = "https://accounts.google.com/signin";

    driver.get(url);

    driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS); 

    WebElement email_phone = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@id='identifierId']"));

    email_phone.sendKeys("your_email_phone");

    driver.findElement(By.id("identifierNext")).click();

    WebElement password = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@name='password']"));

    WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 20);

    wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(password));

    password.sendKeys("your_password");

    driver.findElement(By.id("passwordNext")).click();

this same code gives exception: ElementNotInteractableException due to password field is hidden

---

Yes....I have myself noticed this problem at times.

---

Thanksss you r great.. code works perfectly..

---

Glad it helped :)

---

I have wrote same code in interview but still they rejected me. Is there any other way to write the more effective code

---

Yeah.. it's working for me as well.. Thanks

---

There can certainly be other ways of tweaking the code to achieve the same thing. This is one of the most straight forward ways, and there shouldn't be any reason to reject you for this :(

---

Hi,

After running the above code it is keep on showing the loading screen.Not opening any page.

---

@Suman, can you please share your console logs here. The logs will help us understand where the program is malfunctioning.

Besides, are you sure that you're not confusing WebDriver's wait time with browser's page load time? (or till the time when the elements are loaded on the page)

---

I am also getting the same error:
ElementNotInteractableException due to password field is hidden

---

Hey @Shashank, you can try this code let me know if it works 

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.Keys;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
public class GmailLogin {
   public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException   
   {
      System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\Users\\priyj_kumar\\Downloads\\chromedriver.exe");
      WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
      driver.get("https://www.gmail.com");
      driver.findElement(By.id("identifierId")).sendKeys("priyajkumart",Keys.ENTER);
      Thread.sleep(3000);
      driver.findElement(By.name("password")).sendKeys("PASSWORD",Keys.ENTER);
      Thread.sleep(4000);
      driver.close();
   }
}

---

it works for me thanks a lot man!

---

this could support jdk 1.8 versions or not  especially sendKeys....help me because not working

---

Hey @aman, could you please post the error you are getting?

Answer 2

Below code worked fine for me (just change the email id n password from your end):-

package GmailDemos;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
public class gmailLogin {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
gmailLogin obj = new gmailLogin();
obj.loginBrowser();
}
public void loginBrowser() {
System.setProperty("webdriver.firefox.marionette","D:\\geckodriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.manage().window().maximize();
driver.manage().deleteAllCookies();
driver.manage().timeouts().pageLoadTimeout(15,TimeUnit.SECONDS);
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10,TimeUnit.SECONDS);
driver.get("http://www.gmail.com");
driver.findElement(By.id("identifierId")).sendKeys("abc@gmail.com");
driver.findElement(By.xpath(".//*[@id='identifierNext']/div[2]")).click();
driver.findElement(By.xpath(".//*[@id='password']/div[1]/div/div[1]/input")).sendKeys("password");
driver.findElement(By.xpath(".//*[@id='passwordNext']/div[2]")).click();
}
}

yes, is it working but some changes on next button xpath
Thank you

---

so what exactly is the difference?

---

Thank you Akshay. What is the change in XPath for next button?

Answer 3

As far as I could understand your problem you are trying to enter the email id ,press on forgot
password and enter the recovery email. So, here the issue which you are facing is that your xpath
which identifies the email id uniquely is same for the recovery email id too. So, putting implicit
wait would not solve your issue. Since the xpath for both are same and also since the speed of
selenium is much more faster than your internet so before going to the recovery page your
normal id is being detected.

To overcome such problems you can use two different xpath , or, you can also use explicit wait.

Your code after changing the xpath:

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;
public class css
{
public static WebDriver driver=null;
public static WebDriverWait wait=null;
public static void main(String[] args)
{
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","D:\\SeleniumFiles\\Selenium\\Drivers\\c
hromedriver.exe");

driver = new ChromeDriver();
wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 60);

String url = "https://accounts.google.com/signin";
driver.get(url);
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@id='identifierId'][@class='whsOnd
zHQkBf'][@type='email']")).sendKeys("raj8805");
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//span[@class='RveJvd snByac']")).click();
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(50, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@id='recoveryIdentifierId']")).sendKeys("asassas
sa");

driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id=\"queryPhoneNext\"]/content/span")).click();
}

}

Your code after using explicit wait:

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;
public class css
{
public static WebDriver driver=null;
public static WebDriverWait wait=null;
public static void main(String[] args)
{
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","D:\\SeleniumFiles\\Selenium\\Drivers\\c
hromedriver.exe");

driver = new ChromeDriver();
wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 60);
String url = "https://accounts.google.com/signin";

driver.get(url);
driver.findElement(By.id("identifierId")).sendKeys("raj8805");
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//span[@class='RveJvd snByac']")).click();
wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 20);
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//h1[text()='Find
your email']")));
System.out.println("Located");
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@class='whsOnd
zHQkBf']")).sendKeys("asassassa");

driver.findElement(By.xpath("//span[@class='RveJvd snByac']")).click();
}

}

Answer 5

I don't have lots of knowledge but yes I told you the seven basic steps of Selenium tests:

• Create a WebDriver instance
• Navigate to a Web page.
• Locate an HTML element on the Web page.
• Perform an action on an HTML element.
• Anticipate the browser response to the action.
• Run tests and record test results using a test framework.
• Conclude the test.

Thanks!

Answer 10

Hey @martin, You'll need an email client to handle mail requests in windows.

Answer 11

You can use the following code to automate the process of login in Gmail.

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\Your path\\chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.manage().window().maximize();
driver.get("https://www.gmail.com");
driver.findElement(By.id("identifierId")).sendKeys("username");
driver.findElement(By.className("CwaK9")).click();
driver.findElement(By.name("password")).sendKeys("mypassword");
driver.findElement(By.className("CwaK9")).click();

Hope this helps.

Comments

in this line of code 

driver.findElement(By.className("CwaK9")).click();

"CwaK9" what it actually denotes 

---

"CwaK9" is the class name of an element on the page.  To click on that element, this command is used.

Hey @pratik Koli you can do the same without waiting to click on next button

---

Yes we have to remove thread value so without waiting we can able to login to Gmail more faster.

---

What do you mean by thread value here?

---

Thread.sleep(2000);// this value

---

okay. have you tried this? this looks more comfortable though the work is same but look more compact. What do you say?

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.Keys;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
public class GmailLogin {
   public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException   
   {
      System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\Users\\priyj_kumar\\Downloads\\chromedriver.exe");
      WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
      driver.get("https://www.gmail.com");
      driver.findElement(By.id("identifierId")).sendKeys("priyajkumart",Keys.ENTER);
      Thread.sleep(3000);
      driver.findElement(By.name("password")).sendKeys("PASSWORD",Keys.ENTER);
      Thread.sleep(4000);
      driver.close();
   }
}

---

Ok I'll try.thanks for the above script.

---

@Pratik this doesn't give you the logout option rest all works fine. Do let me know as what is your view for the above code and it worked for you or not.
