Hello Folks,
In last two posts we have seen handling different types of calendars:
Handling Calendar Which Has Year & Month As Drop down In Selenium
How To Handle Different Types Of Calendars In Selenium: Part 1
If you notice, You need to write a lengthy code to handle calendars in selenium. Is there any shortcut ways to handle calendars?
Answer is “Yes”. We can this using java script.
JavaScrips(JS) provides a method called setAttribute. Syntax is as below:
setAttribute(“attributeName”,”attributeValue”).
Example: document.getElementsByID(“Some Id”)[0].setAttribute(“class”, “democlass”);
- Above line will set html attribute “Class” for web element.
- This method can be used to set any attribute.
- We can use above method of javascript to select date in a calendar. Only condition is that calendar widget allow you to type manually as well apart from selecting from calendar.
- For example: You should be able to type 08/30/2017 in calendar box also.
Java Code:

If you have any doubt, feel free to ask here.
