XPath Axes: Understanding The Basics || Selenium WebDriver || Java

XPath Axes in Selenium WebDriver used to locate a web element which is not having any attributes on it's own, can't locate it directly using any of the locator strategy which selenium WebDriver provides except XPath and very useful to locate dynamic XPath. In such cases we can use XPath Axes mechanism to locate based on other web elements present in the HTML Document. We can use any one or all of the XPath axes names/method to locate any web element on given web page.
