If else condition else is not working. Java Selenium

July 16, 2022

I used this condition to get image and image text. But else statement is not working.

if(mercuryImage.isDisplayed());

        {
            System.out.println("Imageis displayed");
            //Get image text
            System.out.println("The text of image "+ mercuryImage.getAttribute("alt"));
        }
        else
        {
            System.out.println("Image is not displayed");
        }

>Solution :

Else statements execute when the condition inside the if statement returns or equals to false.

I didn’t see any errors in your code except for that it’s a bit unreadable for some people.

(And that dangling ; by your if statement, don’t know who taught you to do that.)

Here’s a much more readable take:

if (mercuryImage.isDisplayed()) {
  System.out.println("Image is displayed.");
  //Get image text
  System.out.println("The alt text of the image "+ mercuryImage.getAttribute("alt"));
} else {
  System.out.println("Image is not displayed");
}
