In Selenium, an XPath expression can locate elements on a web page. The Parent XPath is an XPath expression that selects the parent of a specified element.
- Here we can see from this HuntMCQ site we need to fetch texts of all the topics with their inner texts beneath them as well.
- This can be done only by also fetching the parent "li."
- Using the //parent::* or //parent::li can help us fetch the parent of an element from the child.
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
WebDriverManager.chromedriver().setup();
ChromeDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("https://www.huntmcq.com/search/node?keys=istqb");
driver.manage().window().maximize();
List<WebElement> parentEles = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//h3[@class='search-result__title']//parent::li"));
for (WebElement parEle : parentEles) {
String textsPar = parEle.getText();
System.out.println(textsPar);
}
}
}
- Here we took the locator isolated with the parent, and then using an advanced for loop, we got texts of all the topics.
