You can directly use

//li[starts-with(@class,'octopus-pc-item')]

this does have 26 entries and is not unique in HTML, however, findElement will return the first matching node.

Furthermore, you can do indexing like below

(//li[starts-with(@class,'octopus-pc-item')])[1]

and [2] for the second product and so on... for other products

Perform click like below

  1. Using ExplicitWaits

    wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, Duration.ofSeconds(30));
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("//li[starts-with(@class,'octopus-pc-item')]"))).click();

  2. Using findElement

    Thread.sleep(3000);
driver.findElement(By.xpath("(//li[starts-with(@class,'octopus-pc-item')])[1]")).click();
