Tellurium recommends not to use XPath and it does UI module to runtime
locator mapping
automatically, which is CSS selector by default. Tellurium new Engine uses a
group locating
algorithm to locate the whole UI module in one attempt.
For you case, you could define the UI module as follows if you really need
the Foo and Bar texts.
ui.Container(uid: "menu", clocator: [tag: "div", class: "menu"]){
Container(uid: "FooLink", clocator: [tag: "a"]{
TextBox(uid: "Foo", clocator: [tag: "span", text:"Foo"])
....Same for the Bar
}
Have you tried Tellurium IDE or Trump to automatically generate
the UI module for you?
Thanks,
Jian
