What is an XPath Selector?
XPath (XML Path Language) is a query language used to navigate and select nodes in XML and HTML documents. XPath selectors allow you to pinpoint specific elements in a web page's structure using path expressions.
Why Use XPath Selectors?
XPath selectors are powerful tools for web scraping, automated testing, and data extraction. They provide more flexibility than CSS selectors when navigating complex HTML structures, especially when you need to select elements based on their text content or relative position.
Common XPath Patterns
//*[@id="elementId"]- Select by ID attribute//div[@class="container"]- Select by class name//h1[text()="Hello"]- Select by exact text content//a[contains(@href, "example")]- Select by partial attribute match
