5. Get All Locators in List<ElementHandle> using querySelectorAll
package com.example.pr;

import com.microsoft.playwright.*;
import com.microsoft.playwright.options.SelectOption;

import java.util.List;

public class DropDownlistExample1 {

public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
Playwright playwright = Playwright.create();
Browser browser = playwright.chromium().launch(new BrowserType.LaunchOptions()
.setHeadless(false)
.setChannel("chrome")
);
Page page = browser.newPage();
page.navigate("https://qa-practice.netlify.app/dropdowns#some-action");

// Select By Value
page.selectOption("select","India");
Thread.sleep(5000);
// Select By Text
page.selectOption("select", new SelectOption().setLabel("France"));
Thread.sleep(5000);

// Select By Index
page.selectOption("select", new SelectOption().setIndex(4));
Thread.sleep(5000);

// Select By Index
page.selectOption("select", new SelectOption().setValue("France"));
Thread.sleep(5000);

// get the count of the elements in dropdown list
Locator dropdown = page.locator("select > option");
System.out.println(dropdown.count());

for(int i = 0; i<dropdown.count();i++){
System.out.println(dropdown.nth(i).innerText() );

}
// In Selenium - List of value return
List<ElementHandle> dropOptions = page.querySelectorAll("select > option");
System.out.println( "== Dropdown size =="+ dropOptions.size());

for(ElementHandle list :dropOptions ){
System.out.println("======= ========= "+list.innerText() );
}
}
