I use selenium and xpath selector. I know how to get a certain element. But how to use xpath to get each element 5?
You can always solve it in your language of choice.
Python
For example, in Python, the extended slicing allows to do it rather simply:
driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//table/tr")[0::5]
You can also use the position() function and the mod operator:
//table/tr[position() mod 5 = 0]
driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//table/tr[position() mod 5 = 0]")
Java
List<WebElement> elements=driver.findElements(By.xpath("//tbody/tr[position() mod 5 = 0]"));
System.out.println(elements.size());
for (WebElement element : elements) {
System.out.println(element.getText());
}

I can't find my link using this Xpath //a[contains(text(),'My stuff')]
Though I can find it through DOM :
HTML :
<li _ngcontent-c8="">
<a _ngcontent-c8="" href="my-stuff">
{" "}
My Stuff{" "}
</a>
</li>;
When executed :
try:
my_stuff = WebDriverWait(driver, 8).until(
EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//a[contains(text(),'My stuff')]"))
)
my_stuff.click()
except:
print("not found")
returns not found
There was a modal messing with my selection that needed to be dissmissed.
i will try to analyse the problem and give you most answer
. first : if you have Xpath Helper "google chrome extension" try to put your Xpath there
=> if you find it then the problem in your code . we will try to change it
=> if you can't find it with Xpath helper ,than there is multiple choice:
first try to find if there is a "table" or new "form" above your Xpath , that you can't get it with absolute path
. you must get inside the "table" or "form", then find the path inside it
, tell me if that didn't work

I am new to python selenium i want to extract
https://tools.keycdn.com/geo
tools.keycdn.com/geo
I need to extract only postal code i.e 10080
only zipcode not any other text
and print it out on screen
There is a cookies accept button, so you need to accept that first, and then using //dt[text()='Postal code']//following-sibling::dd xpath you can extract the postal code. See below
Code:
driver = webdriver.Chrome(driver_path)
driver.maximize_window()
driver.get("https://tools.keycdn.com/geo")
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 20)
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "button[class*='alert-cookies']"))).click()
postal_code = wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//dt[text()='Postal code']//following-sibling::dd"))).text
print(postal_code)
Imports :
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

After accessing the webelements of List. Other webelement is also treated as List webelement.
List<WebElement> BrandTerms =driver.findElements(BrandTerm);
js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
for(int i=0;i<=1;i++)
{
js.executeScript("arguments[0].value='"+Bandtermsvalue+i + "'", BrandTerms.get(i));
}
js=null;
driver.findElements(By.id("btnAddBrandedTerms")).click();
Why is this webelement is treated as list element with message "click() is undefined for the type List"
alternatively You may extract and click on the first found
List<WebElement> BrandTerms =driver.findElements(BrandTerm);
js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
for(int i=0;i<=1;i++)
{
js.executeScript("arguments[0].value='"+Bandtermsvalue+i + "'", BrandTerms.get(i));
}
js=null;
driver.findElements(By.id("btnAddBrandedTerms")).get(0).click();
OR
driver.findElement(By.id("btnAddBrandedTerms")).click();
Please see webdriver API specs
https://seleniumhq.github.io/selenium/docs/api/java/org/openqa/selenium/remote/server/handler/FindElement.html
and
https://seleniumhq.github.io/selenium/docs/api/java/org/openqa/selenium/remote/server/handler/FindElements.html
Also highly recommending to double check selenium top tips and tricks and try that out in your project.
Hope this helps.
findElements returns a list of all the elements which match given xpath. Whereas, findElement returns first matching element using the xpath. But, be careful as if there is no element matching the given xpath, you may face exception.
To solve the issue you are facing, instead of below line:
driver.findElements(By.id("btnAddBrandedTerms")).click();
Please use this line of code:
driver.findElement(By.id("btnAddBrandedTerms")).click();
Hope it helps.

I am trying to read the below html code using getText() {Selenium-WebDriver}, this is my locator and script line
#FindBy(xpath="//p[#class='radiobutton']") WebElement groupMsg;
System.out.println("This is the group message"+groupMsg.getText()); //msg display on console
o/p on console :: This is the group messageRadio button 'Male' is checked
As i showed its showing only "Sex : Male". not getting the "Age group: 5 - 15". Its happening because of (i think Pl correct me if i am wrong)
<p class="groupradiobutton">
Sex : Male
<br>
Age group: 5 - 15
</p>
Can any one give solution for this?
Below code is workig.
String a=driver.findElement(By.className("groupradiobutton")).getText();
System.out.Println(a);
This is printing the output as below in console.
Sex : Male
Age group: 5 - 15
I have tested with the html you have given.
Use below code
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//p[#class='groupradiobutton')).getText();

I want to know that how to remove the text from Textbox. I have did much search from Google but nothing found currently. Please tell me any Keyword which can help me for remove/clean text in field.
You can use this also for clear test field..
driver.findElement(By.id("textfieldid")).sendKeys("");//empty string
or
Input Text (your web element locator ) ${empty}
You don't need a Robot to do it.. Just use Selenium.
driver.findElement(By.id("username")).clear();
http://selenium.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/docs/api/java/org/openqa/selenium/WebElement.html#clear()
You don't need it. Check here
def input_text(self, locator, text):
"""Types the given `text` into text field identified by `locator`.
See `introduction` for details about locating elements. """
self._info("Typing text '%s' into text field '%s'" % (text, locator))
self._input_text_into_text_field(locator, text)
The Input Text keyword is calling the
_input_text_into_text_field
which is anyway sending the clear command:
def _input_text_into_text_field(self, locator, text):
element = self._element_find(locator, True, True)
element.clear()
element.send_keys(text)
