My job is to verify that the change have occurred. I can't navigate through all the pages as there are many. I have heard about scrapy but it seems to only work on defined pages and that is not what I need. <br> Help or advice would be very much appreciated<br> thanks</p> Jose Martin Mon, 09 Mar 2020 12:56:07 +0000 https://dev.to/joselitan/visibility-of-element-in-dom-python-with-selenium-410l https://dev.to/joselitan/visibility-of-element-in-dom-python-with-selenium-410l <p>Hello, <br> I am struggling to find a more efficient way to identify if an element is visible in the DOM or not.<br> I am creating a simple automation script with selenium and python and the best way i found is to use is self.driver.find_elements_by_xpath("xpath") with len function. it would look like this</p> <p>verify_element = len(self.driver.find_elements_by_xpath(".//xpath"). If it will return the result in a list. If element exist it will return "1" and if it doesn't it will return "0"</p> <p>The mentioned above works great but it has a mayor setback which is that it takes too long time for that line of code to execute. </p> <p>It would be very appreciated if you guys have a better way/solution to share.</p> <p>thanks in advanced.</p> python testing codenewbie selenium Jose Martin Fri, 10 Jan 2020 05:15:07 +0000 https://dev.to/joselitan/simple-test-case-template-1fcd https://dev.to/joselitan/simple-test-case-template-1fcd <p>Hello Dev community!</p> <p>I’m looking for a simple test case template I can use to write test cases.
