Which is the correct spelling, xpath or xpath?


Asked by Aylin Craig on Dec 15, 2021 XPath



In popular use (though not in the official specification), an XPath expression is often referred to simply as "an XPath".
And,
XPath stands for XML Path Language. XPath uses "path like" syntax to identify and navigate nodes in an XML document. XPath contains over 200 built-in functions. XPath is a major element in the XSLT standard.
Likewise, XPath stands for XML Path. It’s a query language that helps identify elements from an XML document. It uses expressions that navigate into an XML document in a way that can be traced from the start to the intended element—like forming a path from the start.
Subsequently,
In this case, you don’t need to choose this XPath because there are multiple elements available with the same XPath. If you find more than one elements matching the same XPath, do not choose that XPath. Try to write another XPath for that element and find one matched only (i.e. 1 of 1).
Indeed,
XPath in Selenium is an XML path used for navigation through the HTML structure of the page. It is a syntax or language for finding any element on a web page using XML path expression. XPath can be used for both HTML and XML documents to find the location of any element on a webpage using HTML DOM structure.
