How to get count of 'li' elements list with selenium webdriver?

Question

I have a list of li elements wrapped in sub-menu class of HTML, before clicking on any of the li element I wanted to cross check all li elements are present with getText() and length but not sure how to go with length as I don't see any suggestion to go for length.

 WebElement menuList = driver.findElement(By.id("menu-item-33"));
 menuList.click();
 List<WebElement>elems = driver.findElements(By.className("sub-menu"));
 for (WebElement ddlList : elems)
 {
 System.out.println(ddlList.getText());
 //Something like ddlList.length(); but not able to work upon it.
 }
 }

• ernie: ddlList is an individual element . . . if you just want to know how many you had, you want the length of elems . .

Answer 1

There are two ways/solutions to print num of element.

Solution 1 :

int i=0;
for (WebElement ddlList : elems)
{
 System.out.println("Element Num "+ i +" is "+ ddlList.getText());
 i++;
}

• Here just increase value of i in each repetition.

Solution 2 :

for (int i=0; i < elems.size(); i++)
{
 System.out.println("Element Num "+ i +" is " + elems.get(i).getText());
}

• Here simple java loop with size() of list.

If you want to print only num of elements then follow below :

System.out.println(elems.size());

Answer 2

I believe you found the answer. But I would like to share this line of code just in case if this could also add to help. This is a C# code

MyTickets = driver.FindElements(By.CssSelector("#support-dashboard-form>div>div.dashboard-container>div")).Count();
 for (int i=2;i<=MyTickets+1;i++)
 {
 string TicketRef = driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("#support-dashboard-form>div>div.dashboard-container>div:nth-child(" + i + ")>div.column.dashboard-column-icon>div.ticket-ref")).Text;
}
