Comments on: Grid Interaction in Selenium Tests with XPath http://thetestingblog.com/2009/08/27/selenium-xpath/ Why, testing, of course!

I'm glad it was helpful. I was afraid it might not be enough, but I couldn't write any more or it would have evolved into a full tutorial (and there are already a few out there for xpath). BTW since I didn't include this, the way to write an expression to find an element based on attribute values is elementtype[@attributename='attribute value'] e.g. table[@id='someTableID'] I will definitely be there for any performance you might give, especially a capella.

I've never understand xpath stuff. Now that you've explained it halfway decently, I'm going to go experiment with it today toward the end of the day (or after I finish writing FIT tests). It's always a challenge to find tutorials that make sense. Thanks for making sense! BTW, I like the use of Beatle albums as the example. I remember, when I turned 16, I got Abbey Road for my birthday. I've listened to that album so many times; I could probably perform it live (a capella, of course). Don't worry. If I do it, you'll get front seat because of what you taught me about xpath expressions today. "You never give me your money. You only give me your funny paper. And in the middle of negotiation, you break down." That’s a great post, Marisa. I’ve never understand xpath stuff.
