Nowdays, everyone is an online intellectual teacher but very few have the skill to deliver the topic in most appropriate & understandable format. The way you explained, is absolutely brilliant. Examples are appropriate, very much understandable and moreover my concept on XPATH is now very much clear. Thank u .......Like to banta hai boss
Oh man!!! I was learning xPath concept for the first time ever and you made me feel like it's the simplest thing I ever have learned. You're truly a genius man. Moreover, you're just boosting confidence by iterating that if someone knows xPath well then 90% of selenium is covered, I like it :D :D
i dont mean to be so offtopic but does anyone know of a tool to get back into an instagram account? I was stupid forgot my account password. I would love any tricks you can offer me.
Naveen had 747 Subscribers when this video was recorded. Now he has 344K subscribers. Damn! What a progress.!! You deserve all the success in life! A true inspiration and Leader for all of us!!
I'm into this automation field for more than 4 or 5 years, still shameful for not knowing how to create xpaths, all because of adons like firebug, selectorshub etc which made our life easier, but unfortunately, the company blocked those adon usages and now struggled to create xpath and after a long search found this beautiful video. You are a lifesaver man. Thanks for showing us the marvel of creating xpaths.
Just crazy genius!!! Thank you for that - First time hearing about XPath, and you explained like a genius for a 4 years old child!! Keep that spirit brother :)
I didn't find anyone till now explaining xpath with such ease. Really appreciate your expertise. Thank you for all your videos. You are helping thousands of people like me to learn.

I really want to know, from where you learn or know these amazing tricks. This is simply awesome. I am addicted to your videos .Keep up the good works brother.
Hi Naveen, I am using chrome version 63.0.3239.84 and I am not getting this option on ctrl F to find by string selector or xpath. When I do ctrl F what I get instead is 'Find string in logs'. How do I get the option to search by xpath? please guide.
Thanks a lot Naveen, this really helped me a lot in understanding the concept. Now I could able to write xpath very easily. One questions, are there any tutorials from you describing about the framework and a real time project?
I felt as I was having a 1 to 1 meeting with the instructor. Clearly explained. I started with zero knowledge about xpath but now I am equipment with a great useful information. Thanks Naveen!!
@Naveen Thanks for this video. I liked your way of simplified explanation for taking dynamic xpath, particularly most useful concept like ++preceding-sibling: //a[text()='test2 test2']//parent::td[@class='datalistrow']//preceding-sibling::td[@class='datalistrow']//input .
if the element doesn't have any identifiable qualities, look at it's parent and go for there. Every element has a tag of some sort. Go up the tree to a parent with some identifiable properties and then go from there. Or, find a sibling element that you can recognize and use ::following-sibling to get the element you want.
While development of application the developer should consider and place a unique identity on all components ( it should some protocol to place a identification) .
Naveen I swear i was struggling literally with all the bullying one side and not knowing how to pass this phase of not been able to find the x-path....you have definitely given me the right guidance. Very precise and clear. Thanks alot to help the needy like me...three cheers to you. Teach a lot and these good wishes will get your existence meaningful.Thanks bro
For a pega application how to get xpath in IE? MRI tool doesn't open at all. Another option like GetXpath1,GetXapth2 is not providing correct xpath. Any idea?
Hello Naveen Sir, You are very talented. Your all videos are nice and so helpful to prepare for interviews as well as to work into automation testing. A small correction- in this video at 29.49 its 'following sibling' not 'forward sibling'. :)
departure city is a dynamic input button, i have written By.xpath("//input[starts-with(@id, 'airports-inline-orig-')]")).click(); but its not working..wil really appreciate ur help..Thanks
@Naveen Sir, Wht are the Termology used in Organisations/Company for Software Testing... Like Sprint, Scrum, Which Server used for Testing. Who I'll decide Saverity/Priority . Please make a video for such type of things. Thanks
I was so seriously watching this video and then comes... isn't this simple, instead of going for 2 for-loops and all that 'drama'...😆 Thanks for this video...😊
@naveen I have a question. I have a link that ends with .txt. I guess you can understand what it is showing.I have to work on a element on this link.The full page comes under one pre tag.I have tried customised xpath but that didn't work. Is there any way we can handle the elements in this page? Please do reply.
Hi Naveen Sir Your videos are very helpful for all beginners. If you are able to make video for all Xpath Axes then, I really thankful to you in Advance.
Very useful.. Thanks for sharing. Can you please make a video series on Selenium Webdriver with Angular JS website? Actually, it is hard to get a proper selector because of JS. if class and id were generated dynamically. Thanks Again for sharing.
I never in my dreams thought that I would ever understand this concept of writing xpath by self. I knew it was important and was still using absolute XPath by just copying it. But today took the courage and went through this session of yours, I regret not doing it sooner. Thank you so much Naveen Sir. May My Krishna bless you Abundantly. :-)
we can verify using checking it with the console , or can use extensions like chropath and firebug to check and locate it.. would suggest you to pratice it with the console.. it's a basic thing to learn and would be helpful

if the text in the name field is dynamic Instead of Naveen K ,Naveen1 K1, test2 test2, ui uiii it changes to Sita, Gita, Mita and I want to click on Gita how will i be able to identitfy the element whose parent has to be chosen?
How to: 1. Select a choice from a drop down list? 2. Select something from cascade menu (sub menu)? 3. Hoover or highlight on something? 4. How to know available action commands (e.g. go, submit, etc.), if I don't have Selenium IDE? Thx.
Thanks a lot sir .. creating customize xpath is a big headache and u just give us a pill to overcome that.... and nice example of dynamic table handing .
Hi Naveen, Im trying to find the xpath for one of the drop down options, but I couldn't. Can you please help me on this. Here is the link to AUT : live.guru99.com/index.php/ 1)Click on Mobile Menu 2)Select Sort By as "Name" This is the Xpath I have been trying : "//div[@class='category-products']//select//option[contains(text(),'Name')]" Thanks for your help in advance. Thanks Usha
if there are multiple records with same name, and i want to click the check box for all the records (which is having same name)..how can i do that? can any one pl provide the hint?
Yes, you can use String attributevalue= driver.findelement(By.xpath(//*(text()='Test')). getAttribute("class"), this will return a class value in string.
Naveen, not sure whether you follow Money Heist. While watching this session i felt like create my own dynamic xpath:-) Here goes my dynamic xpath: //Money Heist[@The Professor = 'Alvore Morte'] and //Selenium[@The Professor = 'Naveen']
If someone asks me who was your fav teacher in your school/college, I'll say "It's Naveen's... from UA-cam" :-)
Wowwwww😊😊😊

You are a saviour !! i am new to selenium and was struggling with xpath. I am glad i found your video. Thankyou so much :)
I learned more in 40 minutes here than I did in two weeks everywhere else. Thank you!
Thanks for watching :)
I am late for the channel however so far the best content creator and influencer regarding automation :)
Thanks Bro
Simple and best explanation ...Thank u very much ... 👍👍
Hi Naveen,
Could you please help me to know who to locate an element with xpath when no identifier is available
if the element doesn't have any identifiable qualities, look at it's parent and go for there. Every element has a tag of some sort. Go up the tree to a parent with some identifiable properties and then go from there. Or, find a sibling element that you can recognize and use ::following-sibling to get the element you want.
While development of application the developer should consider and place a unique identity on all components ( it should some protocol to place a identification) .
Thanks Naveen for the video, very details and very helpful training.
Hey Naveen, never came across preceding and forward siblings earlier. Brilliant, Thanks for sharing.
super good explanation, Accessing the components that are present in the table directly with a custom xpath is awesome!

@naveen I have a question. I have a link that ends with .txt. I guess you can understand what it is showing.I have to work on a element on this link.The full page comes under one pre tag.I have tried customised xpath but that didn't work. Is there any way we can handle the elements in this page?
Please do reply.
Hi Naveen Sir
Your videos are very helpful for all beginners. If you are able to make video for all Xpath Axes then, I really thankful to you in Advance.
when we have many same Xpaths and we need to select a particular one. what we do..
Exactly it was a great explanation of writing xpath. Thanks for your clear mentoring.
I am a beginner. Since Selenium IDE doesn't work in new version of firefox anymore, is there any replacement to know the commands?
you can use the gecko driver for selenium in firefox
thanks!!!! it is a great explanation in the world . also "Find by" option is opened by CMD+F not a ctrl+F (Chrome/MacOS)
you got talent bro, one of the best instructors i ever watch
very useful nice explanation
Very useful.. Thanks for sharing. Can you please make a video series on Selenium Webdriver with Angular JS website? Actually, it is hard to get a proper selector because of JS. if class and id were generated dynamically. Thanks Again for sharing.

Superb Explanation Boss, Awesome way to find xPath with any complexity. Hats off to you. Thank you for sharing this knowledge with us.
Hi Naveen
If an Interviewer ask how do you verify your Xpath How should we Answer?
we can verify using checking it with the console , or can use extensions like chropath and firebug to check and locate it.. would suggest you to pratice it with the console.. it's a basic thing to learn and would be helpful
