Drag and Drop UI control in Selenium

In this post we are going to discuss how we can drag and drop a control in selenium. While working with some of the controls like Web parts or widgets in web applications, we may need to test them how the application behaves while trying to organize web parts by dragging and dropping them in different locations. Hence, this code snippet which we are going to discuss in this post will come very handy to achieve the operation. Here is the application UI, which we are going to code for dragging and dropping the control from one location to another
