Lets Implement the Test on Eclipse IDE:

Pre-requisites:

1. Create a new Project say 'RC-Project42' in Eclipse IDE
2. Configure the Project to work with Selenium RC
3. Configure the Selenium Standalone Server to run from Eclipse IDE
4. Create a package say 'package42' under the newly created project.
5. Create a Java Class file say 'Class42' under the newly created package as shown below: 

Actual Steps:

1. Write the following code into the newly created Java Class file as shown below and make sure that you resolve all the errors before going to next step:

2. Write the test method 'selectListItemsFromMultiSelectBoxField()' which uses CSS Path Statement for locating the multi-select box field  as shown below:

3. Now lets write another test method 'removeAllListOptionSelections()' as shown below, which deselects all the list options that are selected by the statements provided in the previous test method:
