What is the use of Actions class in Selenium?

The Actions class is used to perform complex user interactions that go beyond simple clicks and text entry. It allows for advanced actions like:

Mouse-related actions: Right-click (contextClick), double-click (doubleClick), hover over an element (moveToElement), and drag-and-drop (dragAndDrop).
Keyboard-related actions: Pressing and releasing keys (keyDown, keyUp), and sending multiple keys at once.
The build() and perform() methods are essential to create and execute a chain of these actions.
