What does this part of the expression do?
a['Batch Processing']
Did you mean?
a[text()='Batch Processing']

Subject: [Webtest] Problem with exact match in xpath
Hi,
I am using clickLink with an xpath, not verifyXpath.
And I have an issue with the following xpath:
//div/ul/li[contains(@id, 'menu')][3]/ul/li[3]/ul/li[1]/a['Batch
Processing']
Although this is a correct xpath, I am not at all sure that Canoo reads the
text inside the square brackets in the /a tag. I ran several tests and had
the impression that it would not fail if I changed the xpath to the
following one:
//div/ul/li[contains(@id, 'menu')][3]/ul/li[3]/ul/li[1]/a['Batch rocessing']
And my fear is confirmed: The webtest does not fail on this. This means that
if I don't find a way to get rid of it, I need to make a supplementary set
of tests to verify the captions of the links on my screen.
Would this help:
//div/ul/li[contains(@id, 'menu')][3]/ul/li[3]/ul/li[1]/a[contains('Batch
Processing')]
Thanks
Gert
