Refreshing web page in Selenium WebDriver

Question

I want to refresh webpage during tests. I send F5 key but I don't know if the driver has the method for refreshing entire webpage.

Below is the code that I used:

    while(driver.findElements(By.xpath("//*[text() = 'READY']")).size() == 0 )
        driver.findElement(By.xpath("//body")).sendKeys(Keys.F5);  
    driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("div.column a")).click();    

Is there any better way to do this?

Answer 1

you can use the below code to refresh the entire page:

driver.navigate().refresh();
