Hi Piyush, if you want to scroll a webpage using coordinates of an element, then you first need to locate the element and find its location. Then from location, you can get the X and Y coordinates, which you can pass in scrollBy method:

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;

import org.openqa.selenium.JavascriptExecutor;

import org.openqa.selenium.Point;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;

import org.testng.annotations.BeforeTest;

import org.testng.annotations.Test;



public class ScrollTest {

    WebDriver driver;

    @BeforeTest

    public void setUp() {

        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\Users\\Anvi_R\\chromedriver.exe");

        driver = new ChromeDriver();

    }

    @Test

    public void test01() throws InterruptedException {

        driver.get("https://www.edureka.co");

        driver.manage().window().maximize();

        driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

        WebElement viewAllCoursesBtn = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//section[5]//article[1]//div[1]//span[2]//a[1]"));

        Point point = viewAllCoursesBtn.getLocation();

        int x_coordinate = point.getX();

        int y_coordinate = point.getY();

        scrollToElement(x_coordinate, y_coordinate);

    }

    public void scrollToElement(int x, int y) {

        JavascriptExecutor javScriptExecutor = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;

        javScriptExecutor.executeScript("window.scrollBy(" + x + ", " + y + ");");

    }

}
