How to create Xpaths

Xpaths to identify elements on the UI. Below are some different ways to create Xpaths:


  • //tag[@attribute='Value']
where tag is html tag and attribute like (class, id, etc) eg. //div[@class='classname'] or
//div[@id='idvalue']
  • //tag[contains(@attribute, attributepartialvalue)]
where could not find unique  values or attribute value is dynamic, could use partial value of attribute by using contains in the xpath. eg. //div[contains(@id, 'partialvalue')]
  • //div[starts-with(@id,'partialvalue_')]
Attribute which has fixed value at start can use xpath as

  • //div[contains(text(), 'text value')] or //div[text()='value']
where text can be used to find the element

Algorithm solving Common Patterns & Techniques

  These are targeted data manipulation strategies used to handle arrays, strings, and linked lists efficiently. Two Pointers : Uses two reference pointers to iterate through a data structure simultaneously, typically from opposite ends or at different speeds (Fast & Slow pointers). Sliding Window : Maintains a subset of data (a "window") over a sequential structure to track running statistics without recalculating the whole set. Prefix Sum : Pre-computes and stores cumulative sums of an array to allow for \(O(1)\) constant-time range sum queries. Dynamic Programming (DP ): Dynamic programming is an optimization technique used to solve problems by breaking them down into simpler subproblems and storing the results of these subproblems to avoid redundant computations. It is particularly effective for problems exhibiting overlapping subproblems and optimal substructure. Greedy Algorithm Breadth-First Search (BFS) / Depth-First Search (DFS) : Systematic graph and tree travers...
