Answer 1

Try to do it like this :

//method to select an element from the dropdown

public void selectDropDown(String Value) {

    webElement findDropDown=driver.findElements(By.id="SelectDropDowm");
    wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOf(findDropDown));
    super.highlightElement(findDropDown);
    new Select(findDropDown).selectByVisibleText(Value);
}

//method to highlight the element

public void highlightElement(WebElement element) {

    for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++) {

        JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) this.getDriver();
        js.executeScript(
                "arguments[0].setAttribute('style', arguments[1]);",
                element, "color: yellow; border: 3px solid yellow;");
        js.executeScript(
                "arguments[0].setAttribute('style', arguments[1]);",
                element, "");

    }

}
