We mostly use relative xpath because absolute xpath will be much more in length.
Example with html code:-
<html><head></head>
<body> <div><h1>Heading…</h1></div></body>
</html>
Here absolute path for H1 tag will be html/body/div/h1
Here relative path for h1 is //html/body/h1/text()
All locators Example with java code:-
package pkg1;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
public class MyClass4_locators {
@SuppressWarnings("static-access")
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
String baseUrl = "https://www.onlinetutorial.info/p/locators-example.html";
driver.get(baseUrl);
WebElement email = driver.findElement(By.name("myname"));
email.sendKeys("pradeepyadav");
driver.findElement(By.id("id_002")).sendKeys("sandeep yadav");
driver.findElement(By.className("class1")).sendKeys("rahul yadav");
driver.findElement(By.tagName("input")).sendKeys("rohit");
driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("input#id_003")).sendKeys("A");
driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("input.class2")).sendKeys("B");
driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("input#awe[type=text]")).sendKeys("C");
driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("input.class3[type=email]")).sendKeys("D");
