Finding Web Elements using Selenium

11.4k

In Selenium IDE, type "css=input[type='submit']" (locator value). Select the Find Button from the drop-down menu. The "Sign in" button will be highlighted, indicating that the locator value has been verified. Attribute: This is what is used to make the CSS Selector.

WebDriver's findElements() command can be used to find multiple web elements and save them to a list. To add more value to the answer, we can use the findElement() command and save the results into a WebElement variable if the specified value has the ability to locate a single element.

The reason for this is that the infrastructure utilised to produce the XPath does not ensure that the XPath will not change between executions. Using id or any other stable element identification, or searching for a parent element and then using the relative XPath from that element, is the recommended method.

The majority of selenium selectors are CSS selectors. That is, CSS selector can be used as an equivalent to other selection solutions such as ID selector, name selector, and even xpath selector.

By using index and square brackets. Using the xpath position () technique.
