Passing variables in Rx path

[manish]

Hello Everyone,

I was trying to automate a button click in a web application where I identify the correct button using its innertext which is passed as a variable in the path as shown below:

Code: Select all

optionName = "Edit";
someRepoItem.FindSingle<ATag>(".//a[@innerText~"+ optionName +"]");

Upon execution, the optionName is replaced as "@edit" instead of "Edit" and an error is thrown as below.

No element found for path './/a[@innertext~@edit]'.


I have tried it with multiple values for optionName such as Delete and Duplicate. In both these cases, the value is replaced as "@delete" and "duplicate" respectively instead of just "Delete" or "Duplicate".

Has someone faced this situation before. Please help if so.

Thanks
Manish

Hi,

The problem is caused by missing quotes in your code. It must be like this...

'"+ optionName +"'

Thanks odklizek.
It works now.
