How to verify if checkbox is selected in Selenium Webdriver in Java?

Selenium web driver provides one method called - isSelected which can be used to check if the checkbox is selected or not in Selenium Webdriver in Java.

boolean actualValue = e.isSelected();
If checkbox e is selected , above code will return true Otherwise it will return false

Full example in Java with selenium webdriver

package temp;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.Select;

public class first {

public static void main(String[] args) {

              // TODO Auto-generated method stub

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\Selenuim\\chromedriver2.3.exe");

WebDriver driver =  new ChromeDriver();

try{

driver.get("http://register.rediff.com/register/register.php");

Thread.sleep(2000);

WebElement e = driver.findElement(By.name("chkemail"));

boolean actualValue = e.isSelected();

if (actualValue)

       System.out.println("Checkbox is selected");

else

       System.out.println("Checkbox is not selected");

      

Thread.sleep(2000);

}

catch(Exception ex){

       System.out.println("Exception " + ex.getMessage());

              }

              finally{

                    

                     driver.close();

                     driver.quit();

              }

       }

}

Thus we can verify if the checkbox is selected or not using isSelected method in Java using selenium webdriver.
