CSS Selectors And XPath Locators In Selenium Test Automation Scripts
I have shown you the examples of using selectors in the Google Chrome dev tools, but the idea is similar when you write your automation scripts. I will use the Nightwatch testing framework to write the following snippets which will navigate to some webpage, wait to ensure that an interactive element has appeared in the DOM, and finally click on it. If you want to learn using Javascript with Nightwatch framework for your automated tests, you can start with our guide to this.

But if you've got a legacy configuration file—like I did—you'll want to update the old chromeOptions property, too.
