Generating XPath With Single Attribute

Single attribute XPath uses one attribute to locate an web element.

Syntax:

//tag[@attribute = 'value']

Example:

//input[@id = 'user-message']

This would select the input element nodes which has 'user-message' as it’s id attribute value.

Let's get a clear view with the below example:

//li[@id = 'ogbkddg:4']

Here, //li[@id = 'ogbkddg:4'] selects all the 'li' node which has 'ogbkddg:4' as it's attribute id.
