Hello @User,

In order to scroll the web page you can use JavascriptExecutor. 

Create an object for JavascriptExecutor and call the webdriver. Then execute the script with a scrollTo function and using that you can either scroll to a particular section or to the bottom of your page.

Here is the script for doing this:

JavascriptExecutor js = ((JavascriptExecutor) driver);
js.executeScript("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)");
Thread.sleep(5000);

We are using thread.sleep to give the browser a time to scroll if you have used driver.close(); then the browser may close before scroll takes place and you may not see the result. For further understanding, you can refer to the Selenium Certification.

ALWAYS put in doubt any solution that includes Thread.sleep()

This works...

JavascriptExecutor jse = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;

jse.executeScript("scroll(0, 500);");

JavascriptExecutor js = ((JavascriptExecutor) driver);
js.executeScript("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)");


or 
js.executeScript("arguments[0].scrollIntoView(true);", element);


or 


//scroll to x y 
JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
js.executeScript("window.scrollBy("x","y")");

You can use the down arrow to scroll down on a web page and the up arrow to scroll back up. Here's how: First, use your mouse to click anywhere on the page you'd like to read; this lets the computer know where you are reading. Then, tap the down arrow just once to scroll down a little bit at a time.
