I have installed Firefox Developer Edition. How to find XPath in this browser? I would like to get XPath and use in Selenium script.
Press F12, this opens the developer tools. Then click anywhere in the HTML structure and press Ctrl + F or Cmd + F if you're on a Mac. In the search bar that appears you can search by XPath, Css selectors or strings. So if you type //div/div/form for example, you can immediately check if the XPath works.
Firefox browser (v72): Right-click webpage -> Inspect Element -> Right-click on web element -> Copy -> XPath (If the web element has any unique id then it will give you the relative XPath otherwise it will give absolute XPath).
Right-click on any element on the page. Select ‘Inspect Element’ in the pop-up menu. Right click on the tag in Inspector and select ‘Copy’ from pop-up & choose XPath. Paste the XPath wherever required.
$x(path)
returns an array of DOM elements that match the given XPath expression.
For example, the following returns all the <p>
elements on the page:
$x("//p")
The following example returns all the <p>
elements that contain <a>
elements:
$x("//p[a]")
Similar to the other selector functions, $x(path)
has an optional second parameter, startNode, that specifies an element or Node from which to search for elements.
