Hi Aditya,

You can use following approach to count generated dynamic id in page:

.//*[starts-with(@id, ‘ResOutBound’)]

If the preceding text is stable or there is any stable element nearby then you can use them to create a locator. Do try Selenium IDE or Selenium Builder by SauceLabs and see what locator they generate for these elements. You may be able to see identify a pattern in those locators. Once you find a pattern you can create your own logic to use that.

Hi Arif,

I read your post and it’s quite useful.

What if the link text is dynamic
For Example, <
0>
Here 0 is dynamic and can be changed for different users. I’m using data-driven approach using excel to get input. Can you help me create a loctaor for this.
Thanks
