deselectByVisibleText( ) command is used to deselect the list option using the specified List Option label from the multi-selection Box field.
In order to use the deselectByVisibleText( ) command, we have to create an object for Select class of selenium as shown below:
Select select = new Select(_driver.findElement(By.cssPath("CSS Path of Multi-Select Box field")));

- select is the object of Select Class
After creating an object for Select Class, you can get the deselectByVisibleText( ) predefined method of Select Class by using its object select as shown below:
select.deselectByVisibleText("Selection Item 4");
