Get Matching Xpath Count doesn't return the number of matching elements


I'm working with RobotFramework and trying to get the number of elements matching 'xpath'.

${count}=    Get Matching Xpath Count    //*[@id="alertForm:alertDetailTabSet:0:neTable:tbody"]/tr

The 'xpath' must be correct. When I search by xpath on the website, it finds me 18 elements what's ok. When I start the test and then look at log output ${count} equals zero. It should be also eighteen.

Does anyone know what's wrong? Thanks in advance !!!


Solution

  • Have you tried with Get Count?

    ${count}    Get Count    ${YourXpath}
    log ${count}
