Selenium C#: How to get the properties/attributes of a class inside another class?

Question

Here is a body of an HTML file

<div class ="pic">
  <a class = "img" href = "abcxyz.com">
  </a>
  <a class = "date" href = "asdfg.com">
     <span> Feb 02 </span>
  </a>
</div>

Here is my code doing the job when I want to get the information like, get the image link

List<IWebElement> imgElements = driver.FindElements(By.ClassName("img")).ToList();
foreach (IWebElement imgElement in imgElements)
{
    img_URL = imgElement.GetAttribute("href").;
    Console.WriteLine(img_URL);
}

But now, what I want is, to get both links and info from class "img" and class "date". Please help me to optimize that. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

As both the classes img and date are in the same parent class pic , you can fetch both the values in a list using a common xpath and then iterate over that list to fetch the values that you want.
You can do it like:

List<IWebElement> imgElements = driver.FindElements(By.Xpath("//div[@class='pic']//a")).ToList();
foreach (IWebElement imgElement in imgElements)
{
    img_URL = imgElement.GetAttribute("href");
    Console.WriteLine(imgElement.Text);
    Console.WriteLine(img_URL);
}

You can create a method for resolving specific tags, like this (I am using it for resolving labels):

public static IWebElement ResolveLabelFromElement(this IWebElement labelValuePairElement)
        {
            By by = By.TagName("label");
            var label = labelValuePairElement.FindElement(by);

            return label;
        }

And use like this:

var labelElement = element.ResolveLabelFromElement();
