I would like to locate this element,
<div class="item-price">$0.99</div>
using XPath which says select div elements whose class attribute equals "item-price" and whose content contains a dollar sign ($).

The syntax for locating elements through XPath- Multiple Attribute can be written as: //<HTML tag>[@attribute_name1='attribute_value1'][@attribute_name2='attribute_value2]
XPath assertion uses XPath expression to select the target node and its values. It compares the result of an XPath expression to an expected value. XPath is an XML query language for selecting nodes from an XML. Step 1 − After clicking Add Assertion, select Assertion Category – Property Content.
By adding '//*' in XPath you would be selecting all the element nodes from the entire document. In case of the Gmail Password fields, .//*[@id='Passwd'] would select all the element nodes descending from the current node for which @id-attribute-value is equal to 'Passwd'.
We can find an element using the attribute class name with Selenium webdriver using the locators - class name, css, or xpath. To identify the element with css, the expression should be tagname[class='value'] and the method to be used is By. cssSelector.
This XPath expression:
//div[contains(@class, 'item-price') and contains(., '$')]
Will match all div elements of the item-price class containing a '$'.
It's useful to use contains() in the test on @class if you want to match cases where there are multiple CSS styles specified in the @class value.
Caution: For a more robust solution, apply the following technique to avoid unintended substring matches (item-price matching, say, item-prices):
//div[contains(concat(' ',@class,' '), ' item-price ') and contains(., '$')]
