Puppeteer

XPath, or XML path, is a query language used for locating a node from a DOM. It is one of the most common ways of identifying an element while writing Selenium UI tests.

In this course, you will learn various techniques for writing an expression that identifies a complex locator. In the process, you will also learn the tips and tricks of writing an efficient and optimized locator. We have used puppeteer with Javascript to demonstrate evaluating an XPath expression in this course.

This course is designed for both beginner and intermediate level developers, as well as QA engineers who want to master the art of writing effective XPath expressions.

Mastering XPath for Selenium

### Conclusion

Locators are the building blocks of any UI test automation, and the most common locator identification strategy is via XPath expression. A good XPath expression defines the stability and reliability of the tests, and eventually defines the value from the test automation. This course will help you write an optimized and effective XPath expression for identifying any locators in the DOM without the need of any tool.

We at Educative hope this course has been a good learning experience for you.
