Follow below steps:

1. Open browser and load url “http://www.makeseleniumeasy.com/“.
2. Wait till page is loaded.
3. Now press Key “Page Down” and notice how much page is scrolled down. You have scrolled web page by a page.
4. If you keep pressing “Page Down” key, you will reach bottom of page.

3. Now get number of pages. It will be number of times of pressing “Page Down” key to get bottom of page.

When you run the program, you will notice page is scrolled down page by page till it reaches to bottom of the web page.
