Unable to find elements by tag

Question

Hi I'm fairly new to web automation and I'm testing new things out. I'm having trouble getting the list of elements as shown in the picture. i have selected the Xpath of the highlighted code but still no success.

    WebDriver driver = DriverFactory.getWebDriver()
    WebElement LauncheddAppTest = driver.findElement(By.xpath(Xpath))

    List<WebElement> DLauncheddAppTest = LauncheddAppTest.findElements(By.tagName('li'))

    println("\n\nIm inside search and click")
    println("\n\n Size is: "+DLauncheddAppTest.size())

the size returned is 0 so the tag "li" was not found.

Screenshot 2 Code block

Any. poiters would be greatly appreciated

Please add the code from the code block image as text to facilitate debugging. — Mate Mrše, Jun 15 '21 at 09:17

You can try the below xpath :

//div[@class='DivFiles']/li

and Use it like below :

List<WebElement> DLauncheddAppTest = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//div[@class='DivFiles']/li"))

and print the size like this :

println("\n\n Size is: "+DLauncheddAppTest.size())

This answer assumes that A div has unique class DivFiles

Hi thank you for your time :). i tried what u suggested and it throwed a "text not parsed" on the console. it happened right after the "List DLauncheddAppTest = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//div[@class='DivFiles']/li"))" was executed – Christian Jun 14 '21 at 03:47
Can you share entireStacktrace ? In my answer it should only print size of the list. – cruisepandey Jun 14 '21 at 03:48
Size did not get printed ? – cruisepandey Jun 14 '21 at 03:51
yes it did not. It showed only text not parsed – Christian Jun 14 '21 at 04:02
that may be cause `"//div[@class='DivFiles']/li"`, I am not into Katalon.. How did you parse your `Xpath` in the question ? – cruisepandey Jun 14 '21 at 04:40
called the function using "i attached new images for u to see" Searchlistandclick.selectValueFromUnorderedList("//div[@class='DivFiles']/li",items[0]). – Christian Jun 14 '21 at 05:13
You are not using the code that I have given you – cruisepandey Jun 14 '21 at 05:59
