[selenium-users] The object locator values are different in 2 environment for the same app, how to take right xpath

[Savita Nalawade]

Hi,

I am using Test and Dev Environment for testing. The xpath i took for Dev
environment is not working on Test environment. The locator values ie Name
and ID are different for both.
Please help me in choosing xpath.

Hi,
As the element has ID, it's better to use ID instead of xpath.

Java code for Selenium WebDriver is as follows:

driver.findElement(By.id(<ID of Element>));
