OS Windows 7 Katalon Studio Version 5.4.2 ## Katalon Studio logs: attached, but not relevant I think ## Environment (for Web testing) Firefox 60.0.2 ## Steps to reproduce - I made a testbed html at Discussion #7609 The page contains following markup: <table id="data" class="table"> …

Hi @kazurayam , I understand your point on removing options in Katalon… But I am a bit disapointed as Xpath is a powerful way to handle HTML documents and, to speed-up test creation and execution. Hence, I would rather pledge for an update to Xpath2.0 and a little clean up of the attributes detecti…

WebUI.verifyElementPresent(findTestObject( 'Page_Discussion 7609/td_Latin_alphabet - text matches'), 3, FailureHandling.CONTINUE_ON_FAILURE) where the Test Object has a XPath defined as //td(matches(text(), 'IVAN')) When I run the test case, Katalon Studio calls org.openqa.selenium.WebDriv…

In KSE 7.2.1, the “matches regex”, “not matches regex”, and “ends with” conditions provided for selecting objects by attributes do not work. If this is dependent on browser support, and none of the browsers Katalon uses support XPath 2.0, why are the options still present in Katalon?

@ThanhTo I would propose this to Katalon Team again. [image] kazurayam: My proposal Katalon team should consider removing the Condition “ matches regex ” completely.

[image] kazurayam: @ThanhTo Yes I agree that it is misleading that these do not work. Either they should be removed or fixed. I am running into this issue with mobile… with this is a selector: //*[ends-with(@resource-id, ‘child_start_button’)] @ThanhTo @duyluong

This has to be a bug, when i select this for regex selection by resource-id for mobile android, i see the following in the logs: [image] e[35m[HTTP]e[39m e[90m{“using”:“-android uiautomator”,“value”:“new UiSelector().resourceId("child_start_button")”}e[39m Katalon should be calling resourceIdMat…

I need this to work too, I need to match the current month / year and many other cases on a text of a testObject, and regex seems to be the closest to what I need that would not involve a lot of workarounds… Ideally I would like to match the current month or year on a text of testObject(s) but that…

All I can do is to show you some workaounds. Alternative to the XPath2.0 matches() function: [image] Using regex to find the id Archive Alternative to Regexp, you can use XPath expression: You can select a div element with id=“Donors_1233klf323sd_Ti” by the following xpa…

The following article describes how to live with XPath1.0, without regular expression and ends-with which were added at XPath 2.0 https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/xslt-cookbook/0596003722/ch01s10.html

Just for your interest, I made a demo project where I verify if today’s date is displayed in a web page. I used XPath contains() function. I did not need matches() function at all.
