Selenium locator for the selected row in a ListGrid

[RubenSimoens]

Hello, we may be missing something but we have a tough time to figure out if and how we can write a selenium locator to get the values of a selected row. Any other ideas would also be helpful

For example

//ListGrid[ID="<someID>"]/body/row[0]/col[fieldName=<someField>]

Works well to get the value of somefield in the first row of that ListGrid

We tried stuff like

//ListGrid[ID="<someID>"]/body/row[activeRow=true]/col[fieldName=<someField>]
//ListGrid[ID="<someID>"]/body/row[selected=true]/col[fieldName=<someField>]

Without success

Is there something that could help us here?

Are you writing a Selenium script or using our SmartClientWebDriver APIs from Java?

Here we are using


isc.AutoTest.getElement("//ListGrid[ID="<someID>"]/body/row[0]/col[fieldName=<someField>]");

You're running JavaScript code to get the DOM element from a locator? What's the use case? Where is the locator coming from? Is the JS code part of your app?

Hello, Sorry for the confusion. We are running SmartClientWebDriver

[Isomorphic]

There's a way to write a locator that will return whether the targeted element is selected (when passed to SmartClientWebDriver.getValue()), but there's not currently a way to write a locator to the selected row of a grid. You'd have to do it in JavaScript using SmartClientWebDriver.executeScript().

If you'd consider Feature Sponsorship, we may be able to add some new locator syntax to support what you need.
