How to perform click action on this particular button?-CodePudding

I was asked this question on interview. I need to perform click action on "open" button which is opposite to "CLR-9194":

I told that with help of index I can perform action on that particular "open" button:

findElement(By.xpath("//label[2]"))

But he told me that I was wrong.

CodePudding user response：

You need to locate the table row parent element based on the CLR-9194 content and then to find the open button child element of that row.
So, if each table row is td element (it can be tr, I don't know, you did not share the XML) and the open element is "label" the XPath can be something like this:

"//td[contains(.,'CLR-9194')]//label"

The Selenium code will be correspondingly something like:

findElement(By.xpath("//td[contains(.,'CLR-9194')]//label"))

the XPath above can and should be made more precise. We need to see the XML for that.
