Selecting a link with Selenium Webdriver?

Question

How can I select a link with selenium webdriver? Selenium before would be done by: ``` selenium.click("link=Users"); ``` But how can I do the same with webdriver? I thought about ``` driver.findElement(By.partialLinkText("Users")).click(); ``` but this does not work. No link is clicked! ```

Users ``` stacktrace: ``` org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException: Unable to locate element: {"method":"partial link text","selector":"Users"} Command duration or timeout: 11.36 seconds For documentation on this error, please visit: http://seleniumhq.org/exceptions /no_such_element.html Build info: version: '2.24.1', revision: '17205', time: '2012-06-19 17:28:14' System info: os.name: 'Windows XP', os.arch: 'x86', os.version: '5.1', java.version: '1.7.0_02' Dr…

Accepted Answer

XPath is one of the most exact ways to point the element.

Try this:

```
driver.findElement(By.XPath("//li[@class='li_class']/a")).Click();
```
