python在深节点xml中查找标签

Question

I want to reach the "thirdDepth1" tag using python ElementTree library. Below is the simplified version. In my real xml its depth is dynamic. So can't reach it with giving path, using find(),findall(), iterfind(). Any ideas?

<root>
    <firstDepth1>
        <secondDepth1>
            <thirdDepth1>thirdDepthVal</thirdDepth1>
        </secondDepth1>
    </firstDepth1>
    <firstDepth2>
        <secondDepth2></secondDepth2>
    </firstDepth2>
</root>

Answer 1

import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET

tree = ET.parse("testxmlreqpython.xml")

root = tree.getroot()

element = root.find(".//thirdDepth1")

print(element)

From @Luis Muñoz comment, this can be achived by using xpath as ".//thirdDepth1"
