Ranorex Forum

Hi,

I try to use Selenium WebDriver in the existing Ranorex project.
I created Selenium endpoint and launched the project throw him - all work well. But I can't use rxPath for element searching:
for example:

I can use But can't use - failed element found exception occured.
Also I can;t use the native xpath: - can't parse path exception

How to I can emerge from the situation?

Although very similar, RxPath is not Xpath and cannot be interchanged. RxPath is heavily based on Xpath but with many many years of improvements built-in. Capturing a Snapshot of the root dom repository item during runtime when using ./span[@class>'abc'] RxPath should help show why it is failing. If you need further assistance with this, please upload a compressed copy of the report.
Regards,
Ned

Thanks for your answer.

The problem in that I do not have errors when I create the path in the repository. All works well.
But when I switch to the Selenium endpoint - I got the error "Failed found the element /dom...../span[@id='121']/span[@class>'abc']"
When I use /dom.../span[@id='121'] all works well with Selenium endpoint also (but not with './span[@class>'abc']')

So:

1) 'span[@id='121']/span[@class>'abc']' works well with Ranorex endpoint
2) 'span[@id='121']/span[@class>'abc']' do not works with Selenium endpoint
3) 'span[@id='121']' works well with Ranorex endpoint
4) 'span[@id='121']' works well with Selenium endpoint

Hi,

Try this:

span[@id='121']/span[@class~'^abc']

Thank you!
