Iterate through table rows and print column text with Python Selenium
The developer has put an ID into the table. I have it working now. It is printing all the cell values from column 2. The code is:
table_id = self.driver.find_element(By.ID, 'data_configuration_feeds_ct_fields_body0')rows = table_id.find_elements(By.TAG_NAME, "tr") # get all of the rows in the tablefor row in rows: # Get the columns (all the column 2) col = row.find_elements(By.TAG_NAME, "td")[1] #note: index start from 0, 1 is col 2 print col.text #prints text from the element
The XPath you currently using is quite fragile since it depends on the complete document structure and the relative position of the elements. It can easily break in the future.
Instead, locate the rows using their class or other attributes. For instance:
for row in driver.find_elements_by_css_selector("tr.GAT4PNUFG.GAT4PNUMG"): cell = row.find_elements_by_tag_name("td")[1] print(cell.text)
