Highlight elements in WebDriver during runtime

Question

Can someone please help!

How can I highlight all web elements in following class during test execution in WebDriver? With Selenium RC, it was quite straight forward

Answer 1

Here the code for higlighting the element in selenium: First create a class:

package com.demo.misc.function;

import org.openqa.selenium.JavascriptExecutor;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

public class Miscellaneous 
{
    public static void highLight(WebElement element, WebDriver driver)
    {
        for (int i = 0; i <2; i++) 
        {
            try {
                JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
                js.executeScript("arguments[0].setAttribute('style', arguments[1]);", element, "color: black; border: 4px solid red;");
                Thread.sleep(500);
                js.executeScript("arguments[0].setAttribute('style', arguments[1]);", element, "");
                Thread.sleep(500);
            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                e.printStackTrace();
            }

        }

    }

}

And then you can call this by :

driver.get(baseUrl);
            Thread.sleep(2000);
            WebElement lnkREGISTER = driver.findElement(By.linkText("REGISTER"));
            Miscellaneous.highLight(lnkREGISTER, driver);
            lnkREGISTER.click();
