Comment #12 on issue 1623 by pekka.klarck: XML library: Support using lxml
module to get better xpath support
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=1623
Most of the tests listed in comment #7 are now done. New set of todos:
1) Consider adding 'Evaluate Xpath Expression' keyword to allow evaluating
any xpath and returning results. This would allow using xpaths that don't
return elements, for example, 'count(preceding-sibling::*)'. This looks
easy to implement and useful.
2) Consider adding support for css selectors. In practice this would mean
supporting css in place of xpath with all current keywords (e.g. using
prefix like 'css:selector') and possibly implementing separate 'Evaluate
CSS Selector' keyword. lxml apparently supports css selectors so this ought
to be doable. Probably not done at this point, though, because this
wouldn't be trivial to implement and nobody has asked for it.
3) Documentation. Still missing. Must be done.
