CodePudding user response：

The element you are trying to find is having svg tag so regular locators won't work. You need to try like below,

//*[name()='svg' and @stroke='currentColor']

//span//*[name()='svg' and @stroke='currentColor']

//*[name()='svg' and @stroke='currentColor']//*[name()='path']

CodePudding user response：

If the span contains something unique, select the span that contains that. For example the svg:

"//span[./svg[@viewBox='0 0 512 512']]"

Or, if the your entire code is surrounded by a div, as shown below. Get the div which has the right image and then grab the span INSIDE the div:

<div>
    <img src="img.jpg" class="class2">
    <span>
         ....
    </span>
</div>

"//div[./img[src='img.jpg']]/span"
