Selenium Element Locator

Element Locators

Element Locators tell Selenium which HTML element a command refers to. The format of a locator is:

locatorType = argument

We support the following strategies for locating elements:

identifier= id

Select the element with the specified @id attribute. If no match is found, select the first element whose @name attribute is id. (This is normally the default; see below.)

id= id

Select the element with the specified @id attribute.

name= name

Select the first element with the specified @name attribute.

• username
• name=username
