How to count HTML child tag in Selenium WebDriver using Java

Question

In Selenium JAVA WebDriver - How can I count child tags? Example:

<div class="subcategory_container">
  <div class="products_container">
     <div class="product_row">
       <form class="product_container">
       <form class="product_container">
       <form class="product_container">
     </div>
   </div>
</div>

I want to count how many form tag are there under product_row div? Thanks

Answer 1

You find the parent div first, then locate all target elements, then count them.

List<WebElement> forms = driver.findElements(By.cssSelector(".product_row form"));
int count = forms.size();

Answer 2

Here are two solutions:

You could either select by xpath

driver.findElements(By.xpath("//div[@class='product_row']/form"))

or you could select by CSS query as mentioned by user1177636

driver.findElements(By.cssSelector(".product_row>form"))
