Question

I am using Selenium WebDriver to automate my browser tests. My browser header is floating and is always present irrespective of the browser scroll.

Answer 1

You can scroll to the necessary location using javascript You need to use the scrollTo method rather than the scrollBy method for it to work.

public void scrollToElement(By by) {
    Locatable element = (Locatable) selenium.findElement(by);
    Point p= element.getCoordinates().getLocationOnScreen();
    JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) selenium;  
    js.executeScript("window.scrollTo(" + p.getX() + "," + (p.getY()+150) + ");");
}
