Refresh Browser in Different Ways in Selenium

1) Refresh command: Most commonly used and simple command for refreshing a webpage.





driver.get("https://www.kinginqtp.com");
driver.navigate().refresh();

2)SendKeys command: Second most commonly used command for refreshing a webpage. As it is using a send keys method, we must use this on any Text box on a webpage.
 driver.get("https://www.toolsqa.com");


driver.findElement(By.name("s")).sendKeys(Keys.F5);

3) Get command: This is a tricky one, as it is using another command as an argument to it. If you look carefully, it is just feeding get command with a page url.
driver.get(driver.getCurrentUrl());


4) To command: This command is again using the same above concept. navigate( ).to( ) is feeding with a page url and an argument.
driver.navigate().to(driver.getCurrentUrl());


5) SendKeys command: This is same SendKeys command but instead of using Key, it is using ASCII code.
driver.findElement(By.name("s")).sendKeys("\uE035");
