Unable to locate element by div class
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
Trying to check if the element set focus to using class header matching by text and getting error unable to locate the element. I know the header title which is 'My Details' in this example, and using this title, how to locate the element?
<div class="attribute-group-header card__header">
<h3 class="attribute-group-title card__header-title">My Details</h3>
</div>
Element should be focused //div[contains(.,'My Details')

you may try: $(".attribute-group-header card__header .attribute-group-title card__header-title")

Nguyen - did you mean to replace the dot inside the contains with this? Didn't work though, same error

What @AnNguyen has given you in the comment is a css selector - e.g. if you try it, the locator should becss:.attribute-group-header card__header .attribute-group-title card__header-title
. Have in mind though class selectors tend to return multiple results (a lot of elements in the page may have the same classes).

@Sarah what exactly is the problem now? The title of the question is how to locate through a class, you continue the element is not located through it, and tried with its text; the xpath in the locator looks ok, it should match the element. So what issue are you having - the element is still not located with it, or the kwElement should be focused
is failing as it is not in focus? Please edit your question so its clearer what's the problem you're facing.

Thanks for the explanation Todor. You were right, with the css selector my test returned multiple objects, that was the reason I was trying to locate the element by its text.

To locate the h3
in your example code, use this xpath //h3[contains(text(),'My Details')]
To locate the div
which has card__header
in class
, use this xpath //div[contains(@class,'card__header')]
Thanh - Now with //h3[contains(text(),'My Details')] my element is located but I am getting error - Element is not set to focus. My test is trying to validate when user clicks on a side menu link the specific link is accessed on the Page. I can't seem to find the right keyword to validate that the user navigated to the link section. Do you have any suggestion?

It worked fine with this keyword and the X-path reference. Thank you all for guiding me to find the solution
Element should be enabled //h3[contains(text(),'${MyLinkText}')]
