How to define Webdriver $sSelector or $_WD_LOCATOR in element <a class="btn btn-grad-orange" href="/wallet/login.asp">Login</a>

HezzelQuartz · February 23

How to define Webdriver $sSelector or $_WD_LOCATOR in this element below:

<a class="btn btn-grad-orange" href="/wallet/login.asp">Login</a>

Can i use $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath for this?

Thank You

Yes, you can use any type of selector you would like to use. Have you tried using _WD_LinkClickByText?

No, I haven't tried _WD_LinkClickByText

How to use $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath in my case?

Hi @HezzelQuartz 👋 ,

my assumption is something like this:

<body>
    <div>
        <form>
            <a class="btn btn-grad-orange" href="/wallet/login.asp">Login</a>
        </form>
    </div>
</body>

Now only some of the locator strategy options:

; XPath selector
//a[@href='/wallet/login.asp']

//a[contains(@href, 'login.asp') and text()='Login']


; CSS selector
a[href='/wallet/login.asp']


; or by link text
; or by class name
; or by tag name

In AutoIt (au3WebDriver), I personally use XPath as default locator strategy. In other frameworks like WebdriverIO, (Selenium) or Playwright, I often use CSS selectors. You can generate several of them directly in Chrome (for example). See the following screenshot:

Open the Browser DevTools with F12.
(1) right click on your target element
(2) copy > (3) choose your locator strategy
now use it in AutoIt 😀

Best regards
Sven
