Although I have come across similar questions, this one is distinct in its simplicity. Unlike other queries that involve iterating over options in a loop, my question revolves around the usage of the getOptions() method mentioned in Selenium documentation.
Despite the promising nature of the getOptions() method, I consistently encounter errors when attempting to implement it. Essentially, I possess an ID for a dropdown and wish to extract an array of its options.
For instance, consider the following code snippet:
const sampleDropdown = driver.wait(until.elementLocated(By.id('id-of-dropdown')));
While this code successfully locates the dropdown which contains visible options upon inspection, a straightforward addition of .getOptions() does not yield the expected outcome. Any suggestions on how to proceed?
Essentially, what I am trying to accomplish can be summarized by the following code:
const sampleDropdown = driver.wait(until.elementLocated(By.id('id-of-dropdown'))).getOptions();
console.log(sampleDropdown);
