<tr>
<td>Alfreds Futterkiste</td>
<td>Maria Anders</td>
<td>Germany</td>
</tr>[https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_tables.asp]
you can find the sample web table in the link. I want contact value with the company and country.
I have tried something like this
//td[text()='Laughing Bacchus Winecellars']//following-sibling::td and //td[text()='Canada']//preceding-sibling::td
To extract the middle column value i.e. Maria Anders you need to induce WebDriverWait for the visibilityOfElementLocated() and you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:
Using the Company text Alfreds Futterkiste:
xpath:
//table[@id='customers']//tr//td[text()='Alfreds Futterkiste']//following::td[1]
Line of code:
System.out.println(new WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//table[@id='customers']//tr//td[text()='Alfreds Futterkiste']//following::td[1]"))).getText());
Using the Country text Germany:
xpath:
//table[@id='customers']//tr//td[text()='Germany']//preceding::td[1]
Line of code:
System.out.println(new WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//table[@id='customers']//tr//td[text()='Germany']//preceding::td[1]"))).getText());
You can loop trough the <tr> and use //tr/td[2] to select the second <td>.
Try this one to select required td node:
//td[preceding-sibling::td[.="Alfreds Futterkiste"] and following-sibling::td[.="Germany"]]
Try following xpath:
//td[preceding-sibling::td[text()='Laughing Bacchus Winecellars'] and following-sibling::td[text()='Canada']]
