    Where do you find FirePath plugin for FireFox and Chrome? Thanks for explaining the theory behind writing XPath so one can do this by hand if need be.

      Hi Kuldip, you can check the plugins or extension section of the browser and search there.

    Hi Raghav, Thank you for this wonderful explanation
    I am working on webscrapping for doing Automation of some of our task
    I am doing this using selenium-python, I am able to login using id and password but after login it is showing "NoSuchElementException: no such element: Unable to locate element:" for the further processses, I just cheked the consol inside and tried to ge the x path, as shown in this video, but it is not showing like this "[]length: 0__proto__: Array(0)." What is the solution on it, shall I need to talk with my IT team? And if you have any video on webscrapping then kindly share
    Thank You

    Hi Raghav - Hope you are doing well - You have been always helpful for automation whenever i got stuck in learning automation - so I would like to ask you one thing like how to deal with latest Firefox browser to inspect elements - as firebug and firepath are not supporting to the latest browser - Please give us video advice Thanks in advance

    • @RaghavPal
      @RaghavPal  7 років тому +1

      Hi Uday, Please check if this helps :
      Open A Blank Tabtype about:config in address bar then press enter (click on I accept the risk!)find browser.tabs.remote.autostartselect the option then click the mouse right sideTurn The Option As FalseClose the browser for restart browseropen browser again, inspect the element. I hope It Works Properly.

      @udaybenake206 7 років тому

      Thanks Raghav.. Yes i done this - How could i ensure for unique elements and custom Xpaths.

    • @RaghavPal
      @RaghavPal  7 років тому

      Hi Uday, once you identify the element, you can check in the dom that it is referring to just one element.
      One other way that you can use is to record your session using selenium builder. It captures multiple identifiers that you can use. - ua-cam.com/video/3NE4yMRtV-s/v-deo.html
