Selenium
Preferred Locator Formats
Using the most optimal locators is crucial for cross-browser compatibility. IE is notoriously slow for processing xpath locators. As per the Selenium documentation, the preferred format of locators is:
- by CSS (i.e. locator="css=a[href='#id3']")
- by xpath (i.e. locator="//a(@href='@id3']")
- by Identifier (i.e. locator="DWT233")
Translation: xpath to css
For those familiar with xpath but not css, here are some tips for translation.
xpath | css | preferred | description |
---|---|---|---|
"xpath=//div[@id='foo']" | "css=div#foo" | "css=div#foo" | div with id equals "foo" |
"xpath=//div[@class='bar']" | "css=div.bar" | "css=div.bar" | div with class attribute equals "bar" |
"xpath=//div[@id='foo' and @class='bar']" | "css=div#foo.bar" | "css=div#foo.bar" | div with id=foo and class attribute equals "bar" |
"xpath=//tr[contains(@attr,'partial']" | "css=tr[attr*='foo']" | "css=tr[attr*='foo']" | attr contains foo |
- | "css=tr[attr^='foo']" | "css=tr[attr^='foo']" | attribute starts with foo |
- | "css=tr[attr$='foo']" | "css=tr[attr$='foo']" | attribute ends with foo |
xpath=(//div[@id='foo'])@class | "css=div[id='foo']@class" | sGetAttribute("css=div[id='foo']@class") | CSS format for sGetAttribute() |
xpath=//div//table | "css=div table" | "css=div table" | descendant |
xpath=//div/table | "css=div>table" | "css=div>table" | child |
