How to retrieve the Ping Download and Upload time from browser tests?

I am trying to automate speedtests with different browsers automatically, and the main part of the test is inside a loop. The problem is, sometimes, one element which has been selected before, and the script worked correctly, at the one of the next steps, exactly at the same loop and at the same page, but with different number, without any change in the xpath, selenium cannot select it again. So, I can not repeat my test as much as I want.

Most of the time I have this problem with Edge, and I think one reason can be, the xpath for elements which I found by help of Chrome or Firefox. ( I can not find the xpath in Edge first of all, I searched a lot about it).

I also put the different xpath that I use. Actually I want to get the numeric or string values of ping,download, upload location and server.

Please let me know, how can I solve this issue, I tried different sleep time and two different xpath. the script always gives me error when I am trying to select the element with class_name or css_selector.

firefox: "/html/body/div[3]/div[2]/div/div/div/div[3]/div[1]/div[3]/div/div[3]/div/div[1]/div[2]/div[1]/div/div[2]/span"

chrome: "//[@id='container']/div[2]/div/div/div/div[3]/div[1]/div[3]/div/div[3]/div/div[1]/div[2]/div[1]/div/div[2]/span"

chrome:

"//div[@class='result-item result-item-ping updated']/div[2]/span"

Other question is how can I wait for a page to load completely. this method WebDriverWait(driver,some seconds) does not work for me and i have to use time.sleep()

Error: selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: No such element

element = driver.find_element_by_xpath("/html/body/div[3]/div[2]/div/div/div/div[3]/div[1]/div[3]/div/div[3]/div/div[1]/div[2]/div[1]/div/div[2]/span")

    WebDriverWait driverWait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 30000);
    driver.get("https://www.speedtest.net/");
    WebElement goLink = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector(".js-start-test.test-mode-multi"));
    driverWait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(goLink));
    goLink.click();

    By download = By.cssSelector(".result-data-large.number.result-data-value.download-speed");
    By upload = By.cssSelector(".result-data-large.number.result-data-value.upload-speed");
    By ping = By.cssSelector(".result-data-large.number.result-data-value.ping-speed");

    driverWait.until(ExpectedConditions.urlMatches("https://www.speedtest.net/result/[0-9]"));
    String downloadSpeed = driver.findElement(download).getText();
    String uploadSpeed = driver.findElement(upload).getText();
    String pingValue = driver.findElement(ping).getText();
    System.out.println("Download: "+downloadSpeed + "\nUpload: "+ uploadSpeed + "\n Ping: "+pingValue);

Output Download: 78.82 Upload: 45.93 Ping: 23

To automate the speedtests you can use the following solution:

  • Code Block:

    from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC


driver = webdriver.Edge(executable_path=r'C:\WebDrivers\MicrosoftWebDriver.exe')
driver.get("https://www.speedtest.net/")
WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "a.js-start-test.test-mode-multi"))).click()
WebDriverWait(driver, 45).until(EC.url_contains("result"))
print("Ping :"+driver.find_element_by_css_selector("div[title='Reaction Time'] div.result-data.u-align-left>span").get_attribute("innerHTML"))
print("Download: "+driver.find_element_by_css_selector("div[title='Receiving Time'] div.result-data.u-align-left>span").get_attribute("innerHTML"))
print("Upload :"+driver.find_element_by_css_selector("div[title='Sending Time'] div.result-data.u-align-left>span").get_attribute("innerHTML"))
#driver.quit()

  • Console Output:

    Ping :35
Download: 21.53
Upload :3.46

  • Browser Snapshot:

I've tested these CSS selectors and they work in both Chrome and Edge.

span.ping-speed                         # ping
span.download-speed                     # download
span.upload-speed                       # upload
div.server-current > div.result-label   # server

If you want to know when the page is done loading, you can wait until the URL changes from https://www.speedtest.net to https://www.speedtest.net/results/<some number>. I would just use WebDriverWait and url_contains("results") , e.g.

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC 
WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.url_contains("results"))

There are some other approaches in this question.

Try with:element = driver.find_element_by_xpath("/html/body/div[3]/div[2]/div/div/div/div[3]/div[1]/div[3]/div/div[3]/div/div[1]/div[2]/div[1]/div/div[2]/")

Maybe also you need to catch exception for: NoSuchElementException cases.

Use the following CSS locators to identify the values:

Download: *.result-data-large.number.result-data-value.download-speed*

Upload: *.result-data-large.number.result-data-value.upload-speed*

Ping: *.result-data-large.number.result-data-value.ping-speed*

Making use of getText(), you can retrieve their values. Wait for an element in the page to be visible to make sure the page is loaded successfully.
