Which HTML selectors do you use to extract modules?

Answer from AI
- Class (
.) - the most common, allows selecting elements with a specific class. - ID (
#) - selects a unique element by its identifier. - Tag (e.g.,
div,p) - selects all elements of a certain type. - Selector combinations - allow building more complex selection rules, e.g.,
div.module-name(div with classmodule-name). - Attribute selectors (
[attribute],[attribute="value"],[attribute~="value"],[attribute|="value"],[attribute^="value"],[attribute$="value"],[attribute*="value"]) - select elements based on the presence or value of attributes. - Pseudo-classes (e.g.,
:first-child,:nth-child()) - select elements based on their state or position in the DOM tree. - Pseudo-elements (e.g.,
::before,::after) - used for styling parts of an element that are not represented by separate elements in the DOM.
When automating tests, I often use combinations of these selectors for reliable element search on the page, adhering to the principles of uniqueness and selector stability.
