Is there a way to get element by XPath in Selenium WebDriver? (Python)

WebElements can be located with selenium WebDriver using XPaths. These are expressions that identify elements on a page based on certain details, such as, if the element contains a specific attribute or has a specific child node.

query = self.driver.find_element_by_xpath("//*[@class='central-textlogo-wrapper']")

To explain what the different parts of the xpath in the above statement do:

• // means to select an element descending from the root element


• * means the element can be of any type


• @class means to select an element matching the class attribute of the WebElement.
