In this article, you will learn about the Actions class and their example. Selenium provides different methods to perform click, input text, and select from dropdowns and tables. However, there are such complex actions that we need to perform like drag and drop, double click, right-click, and, many more. These actions can not be handled by simple web element commands. To handle those types of action, selenium provides Actions Class. Actions class is used to handle Keyboard and Mouse events.
