Downloading file and saving it to the desired location in Selenium Webdriver

0 votes

I want to download a file (like an image, pdf, jar and so on) by clicking on any link or button then, click on the save button if present and then save the file to the desired location.

How can we implement this using Java in Selenium WebDriver?

When you are setting up the Firefox profile, you need to add a call to set the property: browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk to a comma-separated list of MIME types to always download it. Use the below code to set:

firefoxProfile.setPreference("browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk","text/csv");
