Locating child nodes of WebElements in selenium

Question

I am using selenium to test my web application and I can successfully find tags using By.xpath. However now and then I need to find child nodes within that node

Answer 1

If you have to wait there is a method presenceOfNestedElementLocatedBy that takes the "parent" element and a locator, e.g. a By.xpath:

WebElement subNode = new WebDriverWait(driver,10).until(
    ExpectedConditions.presenceOfNestedElementLocatedBy(
        divA, By.xpath(".//div/span")
    )
);
