How can I test the alignment of my form?

Question

I use Selenium and JUnit4, and I have a form which I want to test for correct alignment.

Answer 1

You can try to use methods getLocation().x and getLocation().y of a WebElement.

For example

int id1X = driver.findElement(By.id("id1")).getLocation().x; 
int id2X = driver.findElement(By.id("id2")).getLocation().x;
assertEquals(id1X, id2X);

to verify vertical alignment. You can also play with getSize().height and getSize().width to have more complex conditions.
