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.


          }
     }

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;
}
