To get the selected value from a dropdown in Selenium, you can use the `getFirstSelectedOption()` method along with `getText()` method. <\/p>\n

Here is an example code snippet to demonstrate how to get the selected value from a dropdown in Selenium:<\/p>\n

“`java
\nSelect dropdown = new Select(driver.findElement(By.id(“dropdown”)));
\nWebElement selectedOption = dropdown.getFirstSelectedOption();
\nString selectedValue = selectedOption.getText();
\nSystem.out.println(“Selected value is: ” + selectedValue);
\n“`<\/p>\n

The `getFirstSelectedOption()` method returns the first selected option in the dropdown, and then you can use the `getText()` method to extract the text of the selected option.<\/p>\n

**Selected value can be obtained from a dropdown in Selenium using the getFirstSelectedOption() method along with getText() method.**<\/p>\n
