Interface Frame

All Known Implementing Classes:
FrameImpl
public interface Frame
At every point of time, page exposes its current frame tree via the Page.mainFrame() and Frame.childFrames() methods.

Frame object's lifecycle is controlled by three events, dispatched on the page object:

An example of dumping frame tree: 


 import com.microsoft.playwright.*;

 public class Example {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
     try (Playwright playwright = Playwright.create()) {
       BrowserType firefox = playwright.firefox();
       Browser browser = firefox.launch();
       Page page = browser.newPage();
       page.navigate("https://www.google.com/chrome/browser/canary.html");
       dumpFrameTree(page.mainFrame(), "");
       browser.close();
     }
   }
   static void dumpFrameTree(Frame frame, String indent) {
     System.out.println(indent + frame.url());
     for (Frame child : frame.childFrames()) {
       dumpFrameTree(child, indent + "  ");
     }
   }

    • check

      default void check(String selector)
      This method checks an element matching selector by performing the following steps:
      1. Find an element matching selector. If there is none, wait until a matching element is attached to the DOM.
      2. Ensure that matched element is a checkbox or a radio input. If not, this method throws. If the element is already checked, this method returns immediately.
      3. Wait for actionability checks on the matched element, unless force option is set. If the element is detached during the checks, the whole action is retried.
      4. Scroll the element into view if needed.
      5. Use Page.mouse() to click in the center of the element.
      6. Wait for initiated navigations to either succeed or fail, unless noWaitAfter option is set.
      7. Ensure that the element is now checked. If not, this method throws.

      When all steps combined have not finished during the specified timeout, this method throws a TimeoutError. Passing zero timeout disables this.

      Parameters:
      selector - A selector to search for an element. If there are multiple elements satisfying the selector, the first will be used.

    • dispatchEvent

      default void dispatchEvent(String selector, String type, Object eventInit)
      The snippet below dispatches the click event on the element. Regardless of the visibility state of the element, click is dispatched. This is equivalent to calling element.click().

      **Usage** 

      
 frame.dispatchEvent("button#submit", "click");

      Under the hood, it creates an instance of an event based on the given type, initializes it with eventInit properties and dispatches it on the element. Events are composed, cancelable and bubble by default.

      Since eventInit is event-specific, please refer to the events documentation for the lists of initial properties:

      You can also specify JSHandle as the property value if you want live objects to be passed into the event: 

      
 // Note you can only create DataTransfer in Chromium and Firefox
 JSHandle dataTransfer = frame.evaluateHandle("() => new DataTransfer()");
 Map<String, Object> arg = new HashMap<>();
 arg.put("dataTransfer", dataTransfer);
 frame.dispatchEvent("#source", "dragstart", arg);
      Parameters:
      selector - A selector to search for an element. If there are multiple elements satisfying the selector, the first will be used.
      type - DOM event type: "click", "dragstart", etc.
      eventInit - Optional event-specific initialization properties.

    • evaluate

      default Object evaluate(String expression)
      Returns the return value of expression.

      If the function passed to the Frame.evaluate() returns a Promise, then Frame.evaluate() would wait for the promise to resolve and return its value.

      If the function passed to the Frame.evaluate() returns a non-[Serializable] value, then Frame.evaluate() returns undefined. Playwright also supports transferring some additional values that are not serializable by JSON: -0, NaN, Infinity, -Infinity.

      **Usage** 

      
 Object result = frame.evaluate("([x, y]) => {\n" +
   "  return Promise.resolve(x * y);\n" +
   "}", Arrays.asList(7, 8));

      This method throws an error if the frame has been detached before frameElement() returns.

      **Usage** 

      
 ElementHandle frameElement = frame.frameElement();
 Frame contentFrame = frameElement.contentFrame();
 System.out.println(frame == contentFrame);  // -> true

    • tap

      default void tap(String selector)
      This method taps an element matching selector by performing the following steps:
      1. Find an element matching selector. If there is none, wait until a matching element is attached to the DOM.
      2. Wait for actionability checks on the matched element, unless force option is set. If the element is detached during the checks, the whole action is retried.
      3. Scroll the element into view if needed.
      4. Use Page.touchscreen() to tap the center of the element, or the specified position.
      5. Wait for initiated navigations to either succeed or fail, unless noWaitAfter option is set.

      When all steps combined have not finished during the specified timeout, this method throws a TimeoutError. Passing zero timeout disables this.

      NOTE: frame.tap() requires that the hasTouch option of the browser context be set to true.

    • waitForLoadState

      default void waitForLoadState(LoadState state)
      Waits for the required load state to be reached.

      This returns when the frame reaches a required load state, load by default. The navigation must have been committed when this method is called. If current document has already reached the required state, resolves immediately.

      **Usage** 

      
 frame.click("button"); // Click triggers navigation.
 frame.waitForLoadState(); // Waits for "load" state by default.
      Parameters:
      state - Optional load state to wait for, defaults to load. If the state has been already reached while loading current document, the method resolves immediately. Can be one of:
      • "load" - wait for the load event to be fired.
      • "domcontentloaded" - wait for the DOMContentLoaded event to be fired.
      • "networkidle" - **DISCOURAGED** wait until there are no network connections for at least 500 ms. Don't use this method for testing, rely on web assertions to assess readiness instead.

    • waitForSelector

      default ElementHandle waitForSelector(String selector)
      Returns when element specified by selector satisfies state option. Returns null if waiting for hidden or detached.

      NOTE: Playwright automatically waits for element to be ready before performing an action. Using Locator objects and web-first assertions make the code wait-for-selector-free.

      Wait for the selector to satisfy state option (either appear/disappear from dom, or become visible/hidden). If at the moment of calling the method selector already satisfies the condition, the method will return immediately. If the selector doesn't satisfy the condition for the timeout milliseconds, the function will throw.

      **Usage**

      This method works across navigations:
