# BY.ID
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get("https://www.baidu.com/")
driver.find_element(By.ID, "kw").send_keys(" automation ")

# BY.NAME
driver.find_element(By.NAME, "wd").send_keys(" automation ")

# BY.LINK_TEXT, Link text 
driver.find_element(By.LINK_TEXT, " Journalism ").click()

# BY.PARTIAL_LINK_TEXT, Some text links 
driver.find_element(By.PARTIAL_LINK_TEXT, " new ").click()

# BY.XPATH location , There are five 
#  Relative paths + The index position 
#  location form Module first span Label under input
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//form/span[1]/input")

#  Relative paths + Attribute positioning 
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//[@autocomplete = 'off']")

#  Relative paths + Wildcard positioning ,* The wildcard , Match all attribute values as off Properties of 
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//*[@* = 'off']")
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//*[@autocomplete = 'off']")

#  Relative paths + Partial attribute value positioning , Attributes should be unique 
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//*[starts-with(@autocomplete.'ff')]")
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//*[substring(@autocomplete,2) = 'ff']")
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//*[contains(@autocomplete ,'ff')]")

#  Relative paths + Text label value positioning 
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//span[text() = ' Search by picture ']")

#  Combined positioning 

#  Tag name #id Property value ： Refers to the input Under the label id The attribute is kw The elements of 

driver.find_element_by_css_selector("input#kw")

#  Tag name .class Property value ： Refers to the input Under the label class The attribute is s_ipt The elements of 

driver.find_element_by_css_selector("input.s_ipt")

#  Tag name [ attribute =’ Property value ‘]： Refers to the input Under the label name The attribute is wd The elements of 

driver.find_element_by_css_selector('input[name="wd"]')

#  Parent element tag name > Tag name .class Property value ： refer to span Under the input Under the label class The attribute is s_ipt The elements of 

driver.find_element_by_css_selector("span>input.s_ipt")

#  Multiple attribute combinations locate elements ( Commonly used )

#  refer to input Under the label id The attribute is kw And name The attribute is wd The elements of 

driver.find_element_by_css_selector('input.s_ipt[name="wd”]')

#  refer to input Under the label name The attribute is wd And maxlength by 100 The elements of 

driver.find_element_by_css_selector('input[name="wd"][maxlength="100"]')
