AttributeError: module 'selenium.webdriver.common.by' has no attribute 'XPATH' u-CodePudding

I'm starting in programming, so I created a simple code, but it's giving this error:

I'm using Jupyter Notebook, this is the code, if anyone knows what the problem is, please help me

CodePudding user response：

As the error already tells you, by.XPATH doesn't exist. But by has a class called By and it's attribute XPATH.

Like that:

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

driver = ...
elem = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "YOUR_XPATH")

CodePudding user response：

XPATH and other locator strategies are implemented through the By implementation:

"""
The By implementation.
"""


class By(object):
    """
    Set of supported locator strategies.
    """

    ID = "id"
    XPATH = "xpath"
    LINK_TEXT = "link text"
    PARTIAL_LINK_TEXT = "partial link text"
    NAME = "name"
    TAG_NAME = "tag name"
    CLASS_NAME = "class name"
    CSS_SELECTOR = "css selector"

So essentially you have to import By from selenium.webdriver.common.by. Hence, the import statement should have been:

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

and then you can use:

driver.find_element(By.XPATH, '//*[@id="i0116"]').send_keys("TESTE")
