I am automating a web page. i have captured and saved the Links in a file.
Link Url_0="gmail.com"
Link Url_1="ymail.com"
Link Url_2="hotmail.com"
Link Url_3="outlook.com"
The below statement will click on each url.
HomePage.Url_0.Click();//Homepage is the Class name
I want to Click these URLs one by one. So I am using a for loop.
for(int i=0;i<3;i++)
{
String url=String.Format("Url_{0}",i);
HomePage.url.Click(); //This is throwing me error (I think that this is not correct way to do.)
Sleep(2000);
}
How can I proceed here ? Can this be done in any way ? Any help is appreciated.
You should put the variables into a collection, rather than having a different variable with a different name for each. It's technically possible to access the variable in the manor you describe, but it's not what a language like C# is designed to do, and would be very bad practice.
There are several collections to choose from. Here a List
is probably appropriate, an array could work as well.
List<string> urls = new List<string>()
{
"gmail.com",
"ymail.com",
"hotmail.com",
"outlook.com"
};
foreach (string url in urls)
{
//do whatever with the url
Console.WriteLine(url);
}
You can store all links you want into a Coolection of type: IList<Link>
or into an IEnumerable<Link>
IList<Link> myCollection = new List<Link>();
After that, you'll go throuh items in the collection with an
foreach(var item in myCollection ) {
//Here implement your logic with click
}
