I need to get the element which is inside the iframe by hovering over the element for example if the button is available inside the iframe means i need to get the button element.
I have used query selector (:hover) to get the hovered element but I am able to get the elements upto iframe only from the top document. I cannot able to get the element inside the iframe.
Has any one come across this?

It is restricted by CORS (so generally you can not observe widgets included from 3rd-party sites this way), but otherwise doable in recent browsers, you just have to work with the contentWindow of the iframe, and perhaps use elementFromPoint().
Example frame.html:
<div>Test1</div>
<div>Test2</div>
<div>Test3</div>
<div>Test4</div>
<div>Test5</div>
And containing test.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>TODO supply a title</title>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">
<script>
function startup(){
frame.contentWindow.document.addEventListener("click",function(event){
frame.contentWindow.document
.elementFromPoint(event.clientX,event.clientY).innerHTML+="!";
});
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="startup()">
<iframe id="frame" width="300" height="200" src="frame.html"></iframe>
</body>
</html>
Click on the elements of the iframe and their content will get appended with exclamation marks.
