Locating Elements

Most methods operate on a DOM element. Locator must be instance ofElement class.

<!-- Given DOM -->
<foo id="parent">
    <bar id="child" class="message">Hello world!</bar>
    <bar id="child" class="message">Goodbye and Farewell!</bar>
</foo>

from wasd.wd import Element as E

# To locate <foo> element:
foo = E("foo")
foo = E("#parent")

# To locate <bar> element:
bar = E("bar")
bar = E(".message")
bar = E("#child", E("//foo")) # Pass a second argument
                                # to locate element within given context
