Selenium：如何按文本查找元素

Question

I'm trying to search element by text with selenium but didn't find anything that work. The element is displayed below:

<div class="slick-cell l0 r0 project"><span class="project-name"><a href="/reports.htm#p10075">MFIT</a></span></div>

There are multiple elements of this type so I need to find this element by MFIT and return the href.

I've tried multiples possibilities using XPath which didn't work.

• driver.find_elements(By.XPATH, "//*[contains(@*, 'MFIT')]") and go over the list
• driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//*[contains(@*, 'MFIT')]")
• driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//span[@class='project-name' and contains(., 'MFIT')]")

Can someone help me ?

Answer 1

Try:

driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//a[contains(text(), 'MFIT')]").get_attribute('href')


WebDriverWait(driver,20).untill(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//a[contains(text(), 'MFIT')]")))
