Target

Required for many Selenium commands
 verifyText
 verifyElementPresent
 click
 type
and many others

Identifies an element in the content of the web
application

Consists of the location strategy followed by the location
– locatorType=location
13
Default Locators



Locators starting with “document” will use the DOM
locator strategy
 dom = document.forms[0].username
 document.forms[0].elements['username‘]
Locators starting with “//” will use the XPath locator
strategy
 //input[@name='continue'][@type='button']
 xpath=/html/body/form/input[4]
Locators that don’t specify a valid locator type will
default to using the identifier locator.
 identifier=loginForm
 username
14
Locating by CSS
CSS selectors can be used by Selenium as another locating strategy
1. To locate css class, append the class name to the parent tag name
using a period (.)
2. To locate css id append the id name to the parent tag name using a
pound sign (#)
3. To locate by property, include the property name and value in
square brackets next to the parent tag name.

css=form#loginForm
