Select menu element with Selenium

I would like to select an element of a dropdown menu using Selenium in a Java application.
I tried several times using Select, List < WebElement > etc... with no success.
The html of the webpage is this:
<div class="margin-top_2">
<span class="right_column_2">
<div id="f1:idSelectTipoDoc" class="ui-selectonemenu ui-widget ui-state-default ui-corner-all ui-helper-clearfix" style="vertical-align: middle; width: 198px;">
<div class="ui-helper-hidden-accessible">
<select id="f1:idSelectTipoDoc_input" name="f1:idSelectTipoDoc_input" style="vertical-align:middle">
<option value="">Select a fruit</option><option value="A">Apple</option>
<option value="T">Tangerine</option></select>
</div>
<input type="text" name="f1:idSelectTipoDoc_editableInput" class="ui-selectonemenu-label ui-inputfield ui-corner-all" tabindex="-1" style="cursor: pointer; width: 182px;">
<div class="ui-selectonemenu-trigger ui-state-default ui-corner-right"><span class="ui-icon ui-icon-triangle-1-s"></span></div></div></span>
</div>
This was my last try but the element in dropdown menu was not selected:
//open the dropdown menu
WebElement tipo1 = new WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//*[#id=\"f1:idSelectTipoDoc\"]/div[2]")));
tipo1.click();
// select the Apple line
WebElement tipo2 = new WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//*[#id=\"f1:idSelectTipoDoc\"]")));
Select elem = new Select(tipo2);
elem.selectByVisibleText("Apple");
Anyone know why it is not working? Thanks

your locator is wrong, you are using locator for div element and not select. use:
WebElement tipo2 = new WebDriverWait(driver, Duration.ofSeconds(5)).until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//select[#id=\"f1:idSelectTipoDoc_input\"]")));
Select elem = new Select(tipo2);
elem.selectByVisibleText("Apple");

Selenium Select not working on <select> element

I have the task to click on element in the droplist, using exactly Select class.
So I have the HTML block:
<div id="_desktop_currency_selector">
<div class="currency-selector dropdown js-dropdown open">
<span>Валюта:</span>
<span class="expand-more _gray-darker hidden-sm-down" data-toggle="dropdown">UAH ₴</span>
<a data-target="#" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="true" class="hidden-sm-down">
<i class="material-icons expand-more"></i>
</a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu hidden-sm-down" aria-labelledby="dLabel" style="display: block;">
<li>
<a title="Евро" rel="nofollow" href="http://prestashop-automation.qatestlab.com.ua/ru/?SubmitCurrency=1&id_currency=2" class="dropdown-item">EUR €</a>
</li>
<li class="current">
<a title="Украинская гривна" rel="nofollow" href="http://prestashop-automation.qatestlab.com.ua/ru/?SubmitCurrency=1&id_currency=1" class="dropdown-item">UAH ₴</a>
</li>
<li>
<a title="Доллар США" rel="nofollow" href="http://prestashop-automation.qatestlab.com.ua/ru/?SubmitCurrency=1&id_currency=3" class="dropdown-item">USD $</a>
</li>
</ul>
<select class="link hidden-md-up">
<option value="http://prestashop-automation.qatestlab.com.ua/ru/?SubmitCurrency=1&id_currency=2">EUR €</option>
<option value="http://prestashop-automation.qatestlab.com.ua/ru/?SubmitCurrency=1&id_currency=1" selected="selected">UAH ₴</option>
<option value="http://prestashop-automation.qatestlab.com.ua/ru/?SubmitCurrency=1&id_currency=3">USD $</option>
</select>
</div>
</div>
In follow attempt, I have
org.openqa.selenium.TimeoutException: Expected condition failed:
waiting for element to be clickable: By.xpath:
//*[#id='_desktop_currency_selector']//select (tried for 30 second(s)
with 500 MILLISECONDS interval)
click(currencyDropListBtn);
WebElement dropListBtn = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[#id='_desktop_currency_selector']//i"));
waitToBeClickable(dropListBtn);
dropListBtn.click();
WebElement dropListElement = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[#id='_desktop_currency_selector']//select"));
waitToBeClickable(dropListElement);
Select select = new Select(dropListElement);
select.selectByIndex(1);
It will be work in the follow way:
WebElement dropListBtn = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[#id='_desktop_currency_selector']//i"));
waitToBeClickable(dropListBtn);
dropListBtn.click();
WebElement dropListElement = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//a[#title='Евро']"));
waitToBeClickable(dropListElement);
click(dropListElement);
But I need to use exactly Select class.
How to correctly select the droplist element via Select?

Normally for select element, you do not need to click the option inside it.
You can just set the value of the select element with value of the option you want to select.
I post a utility function that I use a lot.
set_value("//select[#class='link hidden-md-up']",'http://prestashop-automation.qatestlab.com.ua/ru/?SubmitCurrency=1&id_currency=3','value')
def set_value(xpath, val, field):
script = """(function()
{
node = document.evaluate("%s", document, null, XPathResult.FIRST_ORDERED_NODE_TYPE, null).singleNodeValue;
if (node==null)
return '';
node.%s='%s';
return 'ok';
})()"""%(xpath,field,val)
driver.execute_script(script)

Button ng drop down- how to choose the item using webdriver with java

I have a button with drop down item,
if i click the button it's open the list and choose the item
below is the html
<button id="btn-append-to-body" class="btn btn-primary mobile-quick-button dropdown-toggle" type="button" uib-dropdown-toggle="" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
<div class="clearfix">
<span class="pull-left text-left ng-binding" tabindex="0"> Select one </span>
<span class="pull-right text-right ng-binding">
</div>
</button>
<ul class="uib-dropdown-menu dropdown-menu" role="menu" aria-labelledby="btn-append-to-body">
<!-- ngRepeat: option in dropOptions -->
<li id="quickOption" class="ng-scope" role="presentation" name="quickOption" ng-repeat="option in dropOptions" ng-click="selectOption(option)" required="" tabindex="0" style="">
<a href="">
<div class="clearfix">
<span class="pull-left ng-binding">frame number</span>
</div>
</a>
</li>
<!-- end ngRepeat: option in dropOptions -->
<li id="quickOption" class="ng-scope" role="presentation" name="quickOption" ng-repeat="option in dropOptions" ng-click="selectOption(option)" required="" tabindex="0">
<a href="">
<div class="clearfix">
<span class="pull-left ng-binding">serial number</span>
</div>
</a>
</li>
</ul>
I want to choose any one of the item from this list,
public void lookupSearch (String item){
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[#id='btn-append-to-body']")).click();
//then i choose/click the parameter item (i.e frame number or serial number)
}
passing the item as parameter
please guide me how should i choose the item

To click on the button with drop down item and choose any one of the item from this list you can use the following code block :
public void lookupSearch (String item)
{
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//button[#id='btn-append-to-body']/div/span[contains(.,'Select one')]")).click();
WebDriverWait wait4elements = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
List<WebElement> myElements = wait4elements.until(ExpectedConditions.numberOfElementsToBe(By.xpath("//ul[#class='uib-dropdown-menu dropdown-menu']/li/a/div/span"), 2));
for(WebElement elem:myElements)
if(elem.getAttribute("innerHTML").contains(item))
{
elem.click();
break;
}
System.out.println("Element with text as "+ item +" is selected");
}

below is the answer from ul find the Li count, then getting each li text and compare with item string
WebElement uList = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[#id='quick-search-dropdown']/ul"));
List<WebElement> listCount = uList.findElements(By.tagName("li"));
for (int i = 1; i <= listCount.size(); i++) {
WebElement lookupItem = driver.findElement(By.xpath("(//li[#id='quickOption']/a/div/span[1])[" + i + "]"));
String lookupItemValue = lookupItem.getText();
if (lookupItemValue.equalsIgnoreCase(Item)) {
lookupItem.click();
}
}

Need help- Selenium webdriver- click on element from visible list is not working

I am sending defined data from excel file. I tried some code but they are not selecting all the data from excel file at some point of time code is giving me exception for WebElement not found.
Here is the HTML code:

Need to select values from list.
Efforts done:
This effort for code worked but it selected only one value and then gave exception
WebDriverWait Wait=new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
Wait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//ul[#class='ms-list']/li/span")));
//now you can find element
List<WebElement>options=driver.findElements(By.xpath("//ul[#class='ms-list']/li/span[contains(text(),'"+testData+"')]"));
for (WebElement option: options) {
if(testData.equals(option.getText())) option.click();
}
Tried above code but it only selects one value !!
WebDriverWait Wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
Wait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//*[#id='ms-addContract']//descendant::div[#class='ms-selectable']/ul[#class='ms-list']]//span")));
List<WebElement> options = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//*[#id='ms-addContract']//descendant::div[#class='ms-selectable']/ul[#class='ms-list']]//span[contains(text(), '"+testData+"')]"));
for (WebElement option : options) {
if(testData.equals(option.getText()))
option.click();--tried this xpath-no success
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath(".//*[#id='ms-addContract']/div[1]/input"))).click();
driver.findElement(By.xpath(".//*[#id='ms-addContract']/div[1]/input")).sendKeys(testData);
WebDriverWait wait1 = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
wait1.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath(".//*[#id='ms-addContract']/div[1]/input"))).sendKeys(Keys.ARROW_DOWN,Keys.ARROW_DOWN,Keys.SPACE);
//Clear the input text value.
driver.findElement(By.xpath(".//*[#id='ms-addContract']/div[1]/input")).clear();---worked but not satisfactory
Please need help to locate the element. I am using keyword driven framework reading values from excel file.

It sounds like you are trying to get all span elements that are contained within a ul element (although correct me if I am wrong). This is the code you are using:
List<WebElement>options = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//ul[#class='ms-list']/li/span[contains(text(),'"+testData+"')]"));
In your case, this XPath will only return 1 value. This is because you are trying to match the contents of each span with an input value "testData". If you want to get all span elements inside of the ul then use:
List<WebElement>options = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//ul[#class='ms-list']/li/span"));
This XPath will select accomplish selecting all span elements in the list. If you need to select only span elements containing text within your testData, then you can iterate over that list selecting the appropriate elements:
ArrayList<WebElement> optionsInTestData = new ArrayList<WebElement>();
for(WebElement element: options){
for(String data: testData){
if(element.getText() == data){
optionsInTestData.add(element);
}
}
}

Not able to click ExtJS Dropdown button and select list elements - Selenium Webdriver Java

I am having difficulty in clicking a drop down and selecting option from the list. Below screenshot of the application.
Our application uses heavy ExtJS and below is the HTML code for dropdown button and textbox.
<div id="combobox-1115-bodyEl" class="x-form-item-body x-form-trigger-wrap-focus" role="presentation" style="width: 325px;">
<div id="ext-gen1273" class="x-hide-display x-form-data-hidden" role="presentation"></div>
<input id="ext-gen1272" class="x-form-field x-form-text x-form-focus" type="text" autocomplete="off" tabindex="2" size="20" aria-invalid="false" placeholder="Please Select a XXXX..." data-errorqtip="" style="width: 305px; -moz-user-select: text;" role="textbox" aria-describedby="combobox-1115-errorEl" aria-required="true"></input>
<div id="combobox-1115-triggerWrap" class="x-form-trigger-wrap" role="presentation" style="width: 20px;">
<div id="ext-gen1274" class="x-trigger-index-0 x-form-trigger x-form-arrow-trigger x-form-trigger-last x-unselectable" role="button" style="-moz-user-select: none;"></div>
Below is the code for dropdown list options.
<div id="boundlist-1132" class="x-boundlist x-boundlist-floating x-boundlist-default x-layer x-boundlist-above" style="position: absolute; left: 582px; top: 93px; width: 325px; z-index: 19061;" role="listbox" tabindex="-1">
<div id="boundlist-1132-listEl" class="list-ct" style="overflow: auto;">
<ul>
<li id="ext-gen1312" class="x-boundlist-item" role="option">6757</li>
<li id="ext-gen1309" class="x-boundlist-item" role="option">Customer 1</li>
<li id="ext-gen1300" class="x-boundlist-item" role="option">Customer 2</li>
<li id="ext-gen1301" class="x-boundlist-item" role="option">Customer 3</li>
<li id="ext-gen1302" class="x-boundlist-item" role="option">Customer 4</li>
<li id="ext-gen1310" class="x-boundlist-item" role="option">XYZ Company1</li>
</ul>
</div>
Please help me locate the dropdown button and select a list item from it. Thanks in advance!!

Try using explicit wait with more precise selectors.
By css = By.cssSelector("[placeholder='Please Select a Customer...']");
By option = By.xpath("//li[#role='option'][text()='Customer 2']");
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
//Click the dropdown to populate the list
WebElement dropdown = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(css));
dropdown.click();
//Click the option. Notice the xpath is using the text of the customer
WebElement value = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(xpath));
value.click();

First you have to click dropdown element(mostly with input tag) and then wait for the li webelemnt to appear .. below is the function which expects webelement with ul tag and value.
public void selectValueFromUnorderedList(WebElement unorderedList, final String value) {
List<WebElement> options = unorderedList.findElements(By.tagName("li"));
for (WebElement option : options) {
//System.out.println(option.getText());
if (value.equalsIgnoreCase(option.getText())) {
option.click();
break;
}
}
}
