Splinter browser automation select option

I am trying to do browser automation on : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox&hl=en

I am able to simulate click on the button for next review list using:

button = browser.find_by_css("button.expand-button.expand-next")
button[1].click()

Next I want to select the option "Newest" to get the latest reviews. However this is not working . Any help appreciated. Tried the below. However it doesn't expand the dropdown button.

button = browser.find_by_css("button.dropdown-menu")
button[0].click
Solution

  • First of all, you are not calling the click method. It should be:

    button = browser.find_by_css("button.dropdown-menu")
button[0].click()

    After that, you would need to click the "Newest" button:

    button = browser.find_by_xpath("//button[jsl = 'Newest']")
button[0].click()
