All the operations to do with the interacting with the page will be preformed through this interface.
All method calls will do a freshness check to ensure that the element reference is still valid.This essentially determines whether or not the element is still attached to the DOM. If this test fails, then an StaleElementReferenceException is thrown, and all future calls to this instance will fail.
Methods available in the WebElement Interface are
void click() : This method will click on the element.
void submit() : If this current element is a form, or an element within a form, then this will be submitted to the remote server.
