How to get link value inside href

Question

I have a div tag in which a tag is enclosed. How can i get the value href?

For example, "https://www.tweeter.com/rkShukl" from <a> tag:

<a href="https://www.tweeter.com/rkShukl"></a>

Answer 1

It depends on the language bindings. In java it is getAttribute():

WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id('id_of_the_link'));
element.getAttribute('href');

In Python it is get_attribute():

element = driver.find_element_by_id('id_of_the_link')
element.get_attribute('href')
