java - WebDriver remove element from page

Question

I'm using Selenium WebDriver(ChromeDriver). I need to remove some elements from page after processing(from DOM model).

For example I have a following element:

WebElement starRatingElement = reviewElement.findElement(By.className("review-info-star"));

How to remove starRatingElement from browser DOM model ?

How it can be achieved in Java with Selenium WebDriver ? Please show an example.

Answer 1

You'll have to execute a JavaScript code to make any DOM changes.

WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
JavascriptExecutor js;
if (driver instanceof JavascriptExecutor) {
    js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
}
js.executeScript("return document.getElementsByClassName('review-info-star')[0].remove();");
