Let’s use the following method for this discussion:

public void setOption(String optionName) {
   WebElement dropDown = driver.findElement(dropDownBy);
   dropdown.click();

   List<WebElement> options = driver.findElements(optionsBy);

   for (WebElement option : options) {
      if (option.getText().equalsIgnoreCase(FILTER)) {
         option.click();
         break;
      }
   }

   saveChanges();

   refreshPage();

   waitForHeaderToAppear();
}

Is this method doing too much?
