How many types of xpath are there?

 In Selenium, there are mainly two types of XPath used for locating elements: 1. Absolute XPath: This XPath starts from the root node and follows the complete path to the element. It is highly specific and is dependent on the structure of the HTML document. Example: /html/body/div[1]/div[2]/div[1]/span 2. Relative XPath: This XPath starts from any element in the HTML document (not necessarily from the root). It is more flexible and commonly used because it is less likely to break if the structure of the page changes slightly. Example: //div[@class='example'] Additionally, XPath can be classified by the type of syntax used for selecting elements: Attribute-based XPath: Selects elements based on their attributes (e.g., id, class, name, etc.). Example: //input[@name='username'] Text-based XPath: Selects elements based on their text content. Example: //button[text()='Submit'] Contains() function: Allows partial matching of attributes or text. Example: //a[contains(@...

IRetryAnalyzer

 IRetryAnalyzer:-  IRetryAnalyzer is an interface in TestNG that allows you to programmatically retry failed tests during        the same test execution. You implement the retry() method to specify the conditions for retrying a test. Use IRetryAnalyzer to handle transient failures dynamically. Run testng-failed.xml as a follow-up to catch any persistent issues. Which One to Use? Scenario Recommendation Large test suite Run testng-failed.xml Debugging failed tests after run Run testng-failed.xml Handling flaky tests automatically       Use IRetryAnalyzer Continuous Integration (CI) setup Use IRetryAnalyzer //ClassA package TestNG; import java.util.List ; import org.openqa.selenium.By ; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver ; import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement ; import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver ; import org.testng.Assert; import org.testng.annotations.Test; public class ClassA { @Test public void testCas...

What is Bar Raiser | Bar Raiser interview round | How to Clear it ?

Image
 The role of a Bar Raiser in interviews, especially in software testing, has become increasingly significant as organizations aim to hire top talent and maintain a consistent quality of hires. Here are a few key points about the rising role of bar raisers: 1. Maintaining High Hiring Standards:      A Bar Raiser ensures that the candidates being considered not only meet the immediate job requirements but also align with the company's long-term goals and culture. In software testing, they assess whether the candidate has the necessary problem-solving skills, analytical thinking, and a deep understanding of testing methodologies. 2. Unbiased Decision-Making:       Bar Raisers are typically independent interviewers who are not part of the hiring team for the role. This independence allows them to provide an unbiased perspective and prevent "groupthink" in the decision-making process. 3.Focus on Core Competencies:      In softw...
