Download File Using Selenium WebDriver

1.  Create a FireFox Profile.
2. Set Preferences as per requirement.
3. Open Firefox with FireFox Profile.

Let us implement the same through Script

	package test.qaearth;
	import org.openqa.selenium.Capabilities;
	import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
	import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
	import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxProfile;
	import org.testng.annotations.BeforeTest;
	public class DownloadingFile {
	WebDriver driver;
	@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
	@BeforeTest
	public void StartBrowser() {
	// Create object of FirefoxProfile in built class to access Its
	// properties.
	FirefoxProfile fprofile = new FirefoxProfile();
	// Set Location to store files after downloading.
	fprofile.setPreference("browser.download.dir", "D:\\WebDriverdownloads");
	fprofile.setPreference("browser.download.folderList", 2);
	// Set Preference to not show file download confirmation dialogue using
	// MIME types Of different file extension types.
	fprofile.setPreference("browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk",
	"application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet;"// MIME
	// Excel
	+ "application/pdf;" // MIME types Of PDF File.
	+ "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document;" // MIME// Doc
	+ "text/plain;" // MIME types Of text File.
	+ "text/csv"); // MIME types Of CSV File.
	fprofile.setPreference("browser.download.manager.showWhenStarting", false);
	fprofile.setPreference("pdfjs.disabled", true);
	// Pass fprofile parameter In webdriver to use preferences to download
	// file.
	driver = new FirefoxDriver((Capabilities) fprofile);
	}
	}
