How to do it...

Let's create a test case that will load a web page which implements a counter and stores the value of the counter every time a button is clicked in session storage. We will verify that a new counter value is stored in session storage:

@Test
public void testHTML5SessionStorage() throws Exception {
  
  String clickcount=null;
  
  WebElement clickButton = driver.findElement(By.id("click"));
  WebElement clicksField = driver.findElement(By.id("clicks"));
  
  JavascriptExecutor jsExecutor = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
  
  //Get current value of sessionStorage.clickcount, should be null
  clickcount = (String) jsExecutor...
