Getting java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: getDomAttribute for Select in Selenium 4

Question

I am etting java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: getDomAttribute for Select in Selenium 4.. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? my selenium version is 4.6.0. Tried multiple things but nothing worked..

java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: getDomAttribute at org.openqa.selenium.WebElement.getDomAttribute(WebElement.java:131) at org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.Select.<init>(Select.java:54)

you'll probably need to call getWrappedElement() first as Select is a class object and not a direct webelement reference: https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/docs/api/java/org/openqa/selenium/support/ui/Select.html — pcalkins, Jul 28 '23 at 20:23

This error message...

java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: getDomAttribute
at org.openqa.selenium.WebElement.getDomAttribute(WebElement.java:131)
at org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.Select.<init>(Select.java:54)

...indicates a dependency conflict and it's almost always a dependency management issue.

getDomAttribute() is a new addition in selenium4.

Solution

Ensure that:

Your project is updated with the latest Selenium release. (current release being v4.10.0)
Your project is correctly using the same version of selenium libraries for everything and resolve the dependency conflicts following the article HOW TO DEBUG DEPENDENCY CONFLICTS IN MAVEN AND GRADLE
