Must Read: Actions Class in Selenium WebDriver

Use sendKeys() method and pass parameters as PAGE_UP or PAGE_DOWN to achieve our required goal.

Scenario to be automated

1. Launch the web browser and open the application – “https://www.softwaretestingmaterial.com”
2. Do scroll down
3. Do scroll up
4. Close the browser

Given clear explanation in the comments section with in the program itself. Please go through it to understand the flow.

package softwareTestingMaterial;

import org.openqa.selenium.Keys;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.interactions.Actions;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class ActionsClass {
	
	@Test
	public void actionsClass() throws InterruptedException{
		System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "D:\\Selenium Environment\\Drivers\\chromedriver.exe");
                //creating an object 'driver'
		WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
                //Creating an object 'action' 
		Actions action = new Actions(driver);
                //open SoftwareTestingMaterial.com
		driver.get("https://www.softwaretestingmaterial.com");
                //sleep for 3secs to load the page
		Thread.sleep(3000);
                //SCROLL DOWN
		action.sendKeys(Keys.PAGE_DOWN).build().perform();
		Thread.sleep(3000);
                //SCROLL UP
		action.sendKeys(Keys.PAGE_UP).build().perform();
                //driver.close();
        }
}

This can be achieved by using JavascriptExecutor too.
