Python Selenium WebDriver drag-and-drop

0 votes

The drag-and-drop is not working with the Python WebDriver bindings. I am working with Google Chrome and Firefox on Mac OS X. 

I used ActionsChains:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver import ActionChains
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
actionChains = ActionChains(driver)

actionChains.drag_and_drop(source, target).perform()

How to get the Python WebDriver drag-and-drop work?

I have verified that this does in fact work on Mac:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains

driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("your.site.with.dragndrop.functionality.com")
source_element = driver.find_element_by_name('your element to drag')
dest_element = driver.find_element_by_name('element to drag to')
ActionChains(driver).drag_and_drop(source_element, dest_element).perform()
