Element Inspector: discover elements and build stable tests faster

Tags: inspector, scan, elements, ui testing, web, selectors, xpath, css
What it is
Inspector helps you discover page elements and build stable selectors faster.

Why it’s needed
- Authoring automation by guesswork leads to brittle selectors and slow onboarding.
- Teams need consistent selector strategy (IDs, data-test attributes, stable CSS/XPath).
- Fast element discovery reduces suite authoring time.

Benefits
- Faster suite creation and fewer locator mistakes.
- More stable automation when selectors follow best practices.
- Shared understanding between dev and QA on ‘testability’ attributes.

How to use it in WebSureQTool
1) Open Inspector and navigate to the target page in your AUT (application under test).
2) Select an element and capture a recommended selector.
3) Save/insert the selector into your suite step.
4) Prefer stable attributes (data-testid, automation IDs) when available.
