Xpath: select div that contains class AND whose specific child element contains text

Question

With the help of this SO question I have an almost working xpath:

//div[contains(@class, \'measure-tab\') and contains(., \'someText\')]

Ho

Answer 1

You can use ancestor. I find that this is easier to read because the element you are actually selecting is at the end of the path.

//span[contains(text(),'someText')]/ancestor::div[contains(@class, 'measure-tab')]
