xpath how to get quantity of links on page?

Question

For example I searching for something in google, than I get search results, and I need to have xpath or any other locator for summarize all links on results page? Any suggestion?

Answer 1

If I were doing this for a google search, first I would get the XPath of a single link. You can do this in Chrome by right clicking a link and selecting Inspect Element , then right clicking the newly selected element, and then hitting Copy XPath . Example:

I get //*[@id="rso"]/div[1]/li[1]/div/h3/a from clicking that. However, this will only select a single element, because of li[1] and div[1] , which limit the query. You probably want to change the XPath to //*[@id="rso"]/div/li/div/h3/a , which selects all 10 search results.
