Count number of links on page using selenium webdriver (Java)

Leave a Comment / By Yogesh / March 24, 2020

Given any web page, we would like to count the number of links on that particular web page.
We will use Selenium Web driver using Java binding language.

Steps to follow :

Navigate to the specific webpage(https://www.makeinjava.com).
Find all the links from the webpage using findElements() function. All the links are associated with the Tag ‘a‘ (anchor tag).
driver.findElements(By.tagName(“a”)).size() will give the count of number of links on particular web page.

Code: count number of links in a web page (selenium webdriver)

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
 
public class CountNoOfLinks {
 
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Enter path of webdriver
        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\\\work\\\\chromedriver.exe");
        WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
        driver.get("https://www.makeinjava.com");
        int numberOfLinks = driver.findElements(By.tagName("a")).size();
        // count no of links on page
        System.out.println("Number of links on Web Page :" +numberOfLinks );
    }
 
}

Output – display number of web link using selenium (webdriver/automation)

Number of links on Web Page :90
