Selecting all the child elements using the XPath to display in Selenium, Python

How to select all the child elements of a particular parent element and display it on a loop?

Documentation should I refer to understand which methods to use? Thanks.

The main div class: Pitch-sc-1mctasb-0 mPWDj, has 4 div child elements, and under those child elements there are further child elements. I want to get the XPATH seperately and display them under the correct div parent.

You can use WebElement.<Locator Strategy>("<Locator>") method to get all the child element. Like for shared HTML if you do:

parent = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[@class='Pitch-sc-1mctasb-0 mPWDj']") #As class has compound string css selector is failing, used xpath
children = parent.find_elements_by_tag_name("div")
print(len(children))

As there are total 36 divs inside div with class name `Pitch-sc-1mctasb-0 mPWDj. It will print 36.

If you want to filter only selective child divs, modify your locator accordingly.Like below will only select 15 divs with data-testid as title:

parent = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[@class='Pitch-sc-1mctasb-0 mPWDj']")
children = parent.find_elements_by_xpath("//div[@data-testid='title']")
print(len(children))

You should use find_elements() to get the list of elements.

Note: while iterating through a list of elements you night get StaleElementReferenceException so you must handle the exception.

For your case use:

lst_of_el = driver.find_elements_by_css_selector("div[class^='Pitch-sc'] div")
