Welcome to Selenium tutorial, today we will see how to write Dynamic XPath in Selenium because we can’t go ahead without XPath and CSS so let’s discuss XPath different methods in detail. Selenium has 8 locators which include id, name, classname, XPath, CSS, linkText, partialLinkText and tag name which make our task easy to find elements.
Previously we have firebug and firepath in Firefox which helped us to find and locate XPath in a simple manner but now both are officially deprecated now we have very easy Chrome Extension called ChroPath which does the same job. I have a detailed video on this which talks about how to use ChroPath.
One more plugin to find XPath called XPath Checker but I love ChroPath
Even if you don’t want to use any plugin then still you can find XPath in chrome browser using the normal search box, for this as well I have a detailed video which talks about how to find XPath in chrome browser without any plugin.
Once you are done with XPath, I will highly recommend you to visit Dynamic CSS as well which is highly used in Cross-browser Testing as well.
Here is the Youtube video for Dynamic XPath
Dynamic XPath in Selenium Webdriver
Relative XPath method
Using single attribute
// tagname[@attribute-name=’value1’] Example // a [@href=’http://www.google.com’] //input[@id=’name’] //input[@name=’username’] //img[@alt=’sometext’]
And so on.
Using multiple attribute
//tagname[@attribute1=’value1’][attribute2=’value2’] //a[@id=’id1’][@name=’namevalue1’] //img[@src=’’][@href=’’]
And so on.
Using contains method
Syntax //tagname[contains(@attribute,’value1’)] //input[contains(@id,’’)] //input[contains(@name,’’)] //a[contains(@href,’’)] //img[contains(@src,’’)] //div[contains(@id,’’)]
And so on.
Using starts-with method
//tagname[starts-with(@attribute-name,’’)] //id[starts-with(@id,’’)] //a[starts-with(@href=’’)] //img[starts-with(@src=’’)] //div[starts-with(@id=’’)] //input[starts-with(@id=’’)] //button[starts-with(@id,’’)] And so on.
Using Following node
Xpath/following::again-ur-regular-path //input[@id=’’]/following::input[1] //a[@href=’’]/following::a[1] //img[@src=’’]/following::img[1]
Using preceding node
Xpath/preceding::again-ur-regular-path //input[@id=’’]/ preceding::input[1] //a[@href=’’]/ preceding::a[1] //img[@src=’’]/ preceding::img[1]
Absolute XPath method
1-/html/head/body/div/input
Text method in XPath
Syntax- tagname[text()=’text which is visible on page’]
Note- While using text() method make sure you provide the exact text else it will not match
Example //b[text()=’Admin’]
Text method with contains
Syntax- tagname[contains(text(),’partial text which you want to search ‘)]
Example – //*[contains(text(),’Employee Distribution by Subunit’)]
Relative and Absolute XPath method
//parent-xpath/absolute xpath //input[@id=’section’]/div/input
Hope you are comfortable with XPath now. Please start writing XPath from your side and let me know if you are facing any issue.

Nice Tutorial)))
Detailed documentation with images. Very clear notes to note for dynamic xpath.
Thanks a lot Mukesh ji
Hi Hari,
Thanks for your appreciation. Please feel free to ask your doubts and queries on my blog/youtube. I’ll try my level best to clarify it…:)
can u please help me how to write xpath for three dot button in an application
Hi Kishore,
Kindly share app URL for the same.
Hi Mukesh,
Firsts of all thanks for the knowledge, it really helps me out with XPath. however, want your help in one scenario.
i am dealing with multiple sites in loop and using following xpath to located and get clicked “About us” link.
driver.findElement(By.xpath(“//a[text()=’About us’ or text()=’About Us’ or text()=’ABOUT US’ or text()=’about us’]”)).click();
But in one site I got three elements using this xpath. No i wanted to clicked on second one. how do I do it
Thanks,
Hitesh Chaudhari
Hi Hitesh,
You can use above xpath with indexing like (//a[text()=’About us’ or text()=’About Us’ or text()=’ABOUT US’ or text()=’about us’])[1] OR (//a[text()=’About us’ or text()=’About Us’ or text()=’ABOUT US’ or text()=’about us’])[2]
Hi Mukesh can you please tell me difference between css and xpath ? which is faster and why? among all 8
locator ?which we should we prefer under which scenario.
Thanks in advance
Hi Nikhil,
CSS always traverse forward while xpath can traverse both
Xpath engine is different for different browsers while CSS remains same
Moreover, IE doesn’t has its native xpath engine due which CSS works works well on IE
Hi Mukesh,
I want to pass variable to my contains(text(),’ ‘) method. For example,
String organization=excel.getOrg(“Org_Net_Name”, 1, 0);
driver.findElement(By.xpath(//div[contains(text(),’Visible Text’)]).click(); so here I dont want “Visible Text”, I want to pass “organization” which I have stored in String variable.
How will I do this? Please share the code.
Hi Anil,
String VisibleText = “organization”;
Then use it as driver.findElement(By.xpath(“//div[contains(text(),’”+VisibleText+”’)]”)).click();
Hi,
How to find xpath for the following case which contains href and class ng-ngbinding alone
Hi Pooja,
Go with //*[@href=’‘ and @ng-binding=’‘]
Thank you 🙂
You’re welcome…:)
Hi Mukesh,
Can you please keep more details for ” Relative and Absolute XPath method” because most of the time testers have been facing the issue to find this time of Xpath.
Thanks
Shivang
Hi Shivangi,
Selection of property attributes while creation of relative xpath solely depends on stability of corresponding property as there is no strict guidelines for creation of xpaths. You will learn more sophisticated way of xpath creation as long as you keep on practising it. You can use chropath extension/addon in order to verify xpath which you are creating.
how can I capture the xpath by mouse click in chrome
Hi Viki,
Could you please elaborate it…
Dear sir
If I want to insert data by clicking add row and the textbook box differ by index and I want to read data from Excel..
Hi Jyothi,
You can all achieve these by single looping mechanism. Customize your xpath in such a way that it should accept index value with iteration number and same should be used to read data from excel too.
Hi Mukesh,
Can we do Control+f to search for something or click F3 using python3 selenium? or can we get access to all window actions or keyboard actions? If you have any solution (workable solution) then please let me know I tried my ways none of them are working.
Hi Kaustubha, Actions class can help you to automate all keyboard events.
Hi Mukesh,
Thanks for your guidance, I have different scenario in my webpage there is one element called builder where we edit our pictures and add any text, stickers on it or so on , I was trying to get the xpath of textbox that let say textbox is layer on the picture. How can I locate that layer in selenium . I have been trying since long time but I am not getting any help . please guide me accordingly.
Hi Satveer,
Now a days, market is full of different types of ui components and libraries so without looking and working on web ui of application, I can’t provide any solid solution for this. Follow what exception/ error you are getting and try to find solution for same.
Okay Thanks a lot Mukesh. I will try to find solution . Thanks again
Hi Mukesh,
This is regarding the contains method that is used to locate element from the First Video timed at around 16:08, I guess you were writing the syntax incorrectly. I wrote the below and it found the title text:
//input[contains(@name,’post_title’)]
Thanks Vijay 🙂 I will update my post as well.
No Mukesh my question was that in tags field in the UI that is the GUI there is also a text area so when you are writing the xpath it is showing one matching node, does that mean it is within one div tag and all the other fields like TITLE and it’s corresponding text area and TAGS and it’s corresponding text area are under independent and separate divs?
Please share me the link to this site and Uname and password Mukesh, I could not get the link. Thanks in advance!
Hi Satwik,
In application which I used, there was only one textarea, all others were input box only and that was the reason it was showing one maching node. If there were more than one textareas in UI then I could gone with other attributes too.
textarea tag can come under div tag also, as it depends UI component design.
In the second video of xpath after content you are looking for textarea right? But the one next to TAGS label in the UI is also has a textarea, so why is it not being shown or is getting reflected in the following command? It should have shown two then right?
Hi Satwik,
Good observation but let me explain this… There were two same words, content & Content. First one was attribute of id and next one was actual text. Both are different. And you should also remember one more thing which is, creation of dynamic xpath is always case sensitive
Hi Mukesh,
I have fetched a alphanumeric character and stored In a string. It doesn’t have any white characters when it is stored in a string. However when I try to pass it through dynamic xpath like, //*[text()='” + string +”‘], the strings takes some white char in bEgiNniNg and end and it cannot find the xpath. How can I solve the issue?
Hi Jeby,
This xpath looks good only. Kindly check your code once again…
Thank You, Mukesh,
I did till //a[test()=’ABC’]/[1] but was not getting any matching results. I tried many times but not getting the element what I was looking for but () worked like magic.
Thank You again.
Hi Anjana,
You are always welcome…:)
Hi Mukesh,
How can I write the XPath for the element which is n number of matching result and I want to select only the one(The first one)?
For example, There is an n number of listings and all listings are having an edit option. How can I select the first one?
Hi Anjana,
Call driver.findElements which will return you list of webelements then iterate to required one
Or
Use indexing in xpath iteself like you have this dynamic xpath *//a[text()=’ABC’] which matches to multiple elements now use (*//a[text()=’ABC’])[1] to get first element
Hi Mukesh,
This tutorial is really very helpful and covered all the important topics. But I need more clarification on Relative and Absolute Xpath.
Thank you so much for ur beautiful explanation. it’s helping me a lot……
Hi Shabana,
Thanks for your appreciation. Stay tuned to my new blog posts…:)
I start with web elements locator but it found quite difficult to guess the xpath is correct or not without firepath. As latest version not support the firepath. can u suggest the way that I can use to enter xpath and on same screen it shows the correct match or not.
Hi Jayshree,
You can use ChroPath addon for firefox
HI, I have cliked on Edit button on my screen .But the Treaty Excess Id is changing everytime .
Please find the below Html.Could you please help me in finding xpath

Hi Mandeep,
Please mention the url correctly because mentioned url is not pointing to correct page.
HI mukhesh ji
You are god of selenium.Thanku so much.it helped me a aloot.Is there any way to find out xpath in IE browser.
Hi Savita,
Very soon I’ll upload a video tutorial for this.
Hi Mukesh,
This post is amazing and very helpful. Can I write xpath in IE or Chrome browser like we do in Firefox browser?
Hi Vinod,
Yes, you can write and validate your dynamic xpath in Chrome and IE. But its not easy just like we find same using FirePath in FF.
For Chrome, 1. Enabling Developer tool, do Cntrl+F keyboard action. After this, you can see one input bx at bottom of developer tool. In that input box, test your dynamic xpath over there.
2. developer tool, enable console then type your dynamic xpath enclosed in $x() like this Sx(“//input[@value=’q’]”). Now press enter and matching results will come up in console itself
For IE, you can visit this link http://westciv.com/mri/
Hi Mukesh,
I just started learning selenium through ur blogs. Now i am facing issue like duplicate ID name. I want to take value from Task Owner. Can u help me???

Hi Vyshakh,
I can’t see any html stuffs over here.
Hello Mukesh. Thank for Your blog, because I’m a beginner and it really helps me.
Could You please to write down a little about text() methods, because in the video above in some cases syntax was contains(text(), ‘something’), in the others contains(text()= ‘something’). I didn’t get.
Thanks
Hi Maruti,
text() function always looks for exact matching of text while contains(text(),”) doesn’t look for exact matching text.
Hi Mukesh,
Thank you for such a nice blog. it is really helpful for me.
Hi Vinod,
Thanks for your comments.
Hi Mukesh
Let say you have a multiple ‘Browse…” on the same page. But, the id is dynamic. Everytime you log into that session. So, how would I be able to define the correct button of “Browse…”?
The only way is by something that is calls array> How does that works?
Example:
…==$0
Hi Lee,
Yes, you can use array for that. Take all locators wrt browse button inside an array and call its click action based on index. Or you go for dynamic xpath.
Very Informative and nice blog
Hi Aridevi,
Thanks for your comments.
Hello Mukesh,
Thanks for uploading such a nice and useful selenium webdriver inforamtion.
I have one query about dynamic xpath-
I have following scenario :
Click on + Add button then it will add new row in the table.
Now here whatever new row added in the table then its hard to find xpath.
Second thing i want to add multiple dynamic xpath and want to enter text.
Please suggest some solution.
Hi Ravi,
If you are able to locate + button using xpath then after click on button, try dynamic xpath like //button[text()=’+’]/following::tr[1] to get first row. In similar fashion, you can proceed with other rows. This is just an example to navigate. Actual xpath on your application might differs.
Hi Mukesh
Very helpful thank you for your blog.
Hi Mukesh,
How does this work if the ID is continuously changing?
I’m talking specifically about Salesforce.
You’re method worked for the first run, no doubt. But when we got the new push(release), all the id changed and script failed.
Do you recommend any unique approach to handle dynamic changes for automating Salesforce UI with Selenium Webdriver ?
Hi Kevin,
Interesting question 🙂 In this case you can take label name and then following tag. You also have to check the pattern of locator which can be changed and which can not. Based on that we need to decide which kind of xpath we will write.
Hi Mukesh,
There is multiple card in single page having unique tag name value but the place/sequence of changing dynamically. How to capture particular card?
Thanks
Hi Aklakh, You can use text and indexing as well if multiple matches are found.
Hi Mukesh,
I need to find svg class element locator. I tried multiple combination but can not go inside the svg class. Can you please help me here how to find svg class locator?

thank you mukesh
Hi mukesh …
I have a question ..
In our comapny, they told to use Automation (selenium) for regression testing first time and don’t have senior automation testers to guide . I know selenium webdriver but…how to implement all techniques in a real time project….how to verify valid and invalid values with error messages, completely.
I felt instead of writing the codes and spending the time with exceptions,it is better to do manual testing very fast………
Please guide me …
Even though I know selenium and written script, but don’t know how to use it in real time project with some techniques….
…….Everybody will explain basic execution using,find element,XPath concept,testng,Junit…..
but I want to know, how to use which technique in which situation
I don’t have hands-on experience much…
Hope you will reply….
Thank you
Hey Sangeeta,
I can understand your point but before my next answer first go through below post and video

hey Mukesh
very informative blog, can you please tell me how to find the xpath of last input field using last() or count() function?
I have used following code, but it dint work
//input[@type=’checkbox’][last()]
regards
Divya
Hey Divya,
There are two solutions for this.
Solution 1-
use following and then take last element using index
Solution 2-
driver.findElements(By.xpath(“//input[@type=’checkbox’]”));
This will return list of checkbox then you can perform on last checkbox
check below post for more details.

i have faced this question in the interview. in an app. there are three obj. named a,b,c,.under each object there is button named ADDTOCART .and i want to press the ADDTOCART button(under object c only.not a and b).is there any way to click on button by only seeing the element.
Hi Bhaskar,
You can do using following method of xpath. Fist find add to cart button then using following get all button and then get the first one only.
is there any way to write x path only by seeing the element
Yes but for some element not for all.
Hi Mukesh
Thanks for sharing your wide knowledge in Xpath.
The way you have explained was very much easy for us to understand.
Thanks

thnx Nur
Hello Mukesh,
The tutorials you posted was very useful and very informative.
thnx Sairam
very informative.
Thank you
Hi Omar,
Thanks 🙂
Hi Mukesh….i am a big fan of you…
Kindly share some post regarding how to handle a element using regular expression that changes regularly.
Hi Satyanayan,
Thanks a ton for such a nice comment.
I generally use start-with and contains method for handling dynamic element.
Example if i have one field like username567 and when i reload page id change to username787 so in this you can use above xpath technique.
Hope its clear 🙂
