Class Name Locator:

Class Name locator when matches the values specified in the attribute name “class”,  retrieves the web-element.

Syntax:

findElement(By.className("Element Class"))

  1. Open Mozilla Firefox and navigate to the Facebook application.

  2. Open Firebug and inspect the Email input box. Take a note of its Class.

  3. Follow the below screenshot to do so.

Locate Element By Class Name Locator

Use the below:

<td>

<input id="email" class="inputtext" type="email" tabindex="1" value="" name="email">

</td>

Value to be added in the By.className method:

findElement(By.className("inputtext"))

Script: 

package seleniumTutorial;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class Locators {

public static void main (String [] args){

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

driver.get("https://www.facebook.com/");

driver.findElement(By.className("inputtext")).sendKeys("Software Testing Material");

}}
