How can we get all element values, when more than element hold same class name

Question

How can we get all element values, when more than element hold same class name.

Eg: Consider I'm having n number of elements that having same class name as follows

<span class="country-name">Country 1</span>
<span class="country-name">Country 2</span>
<span class="country-name">Country 3</span>
<span class="country-name">Country 4</span>
<span class="country-name">Country 5</span>

How can I get all the element values that having the class name as country_name.

Also I have tried as follows:

span(:country, :class => 'country-name')
puts country

When I execute it, It only printing the first value (Country 1) other values are not printed. How can I get all values?

Any suggestions?

You can create a collection accessor that returns all of the related spans (ie those with class "country-name").

In the page object, instead of calling span, call the pluralized version - spans:

class MyPage
    include PageObject

    spans(:country, :class => 'country-name')
end

This will create a country_elements method that return returns an array of all matching spans. You can iterate over this array to get the text of each country (element):

page = MyPage.new(browser)
page.country_elements.each{ |c| puts c.text }
#=> "Country 1"
#=> "Country 2"
#=> "Country 3"
#=> "Country 4"
#=> "Country 5"

Thanks Justin, Working perfect. :) – KAK Jul 24 '13 at 06:05 — KAK, Jul 24 '13 at 06:05
