Modified xpath Highlight in IE or chrome | Selenium Forum

Hello Ashish,

The application of my office do not support Firefox.So

How can i validate the modified xpath is correct of not, which i have created based on various properties of the object .

In Firefox we can simply put modified xpath in to firepath box and check how many matching nodes are present , or object gets highlighted too , how can i do this in chrome or InternetExplorer .


I get some resolution for chrome mentioned below:
Here is the steps to do so:

Open Developer Tools
Select Console tab.
Use $x token. For example, $x("/html/body") will select the body tag.


But the above is responding on for absolute Xpaths , i tried the same for one of my modified xpath which was correct xpath [checked in firepath] but when i checked that in chrome by the way mentioned above , i was not getting the proper results.

So once again my question is , do we have any proper way by which we can validate our own modified xpath in IE/chrome by highlighting element in application ?
