by decembre, 7 years agoRe TEST and Re Edit (2022):
Difficulty to install it on a new Quantum, but finally re work...
:-)
I Re ask same requests:
- Can you add to the Dev menu and the Normal Context menu:
"Open With Chropath"
- Give to the selector Dashed Color line an Z-index which make it always visible .
- Selector Menu:
> Remember the last Choice used (Abs Xpath, Rels Xpath or CSS) .
> Change the color background of this menu (It's black and its items too, so they are only visible on hover them).
- Result Code panel:
> Style it like the normal HTML panel code Dev Tools by using Color Highlighting
> Add a menu to an selected HTML item in it: "See it in the HTML panel"
Old Review (3 years ago):
Thanks, that's the better alternative to my beloved "Firepath" ( that i use a lot to manipulate CSS with ..... Waterfox).
PS:
It's possible to use Chropath on AMO page by going in about:config (tested on Firefox Quantum):
How to enable Firefox WebExtensions on Mozilla websites

Suggest ( to be more closer of Firepath simplicity) :
1 - Add to the Chropath panel a HTML box (as it is in it in the right panel of the in-build inspector tab) under its matched results to:
- Highlight all matching results by Chropath.
- Click a matched result to go directly at the right position in this Chropath HTLM box
2 - Add a way to chose a match and go directly to the original inspector panel
3 - Add the inverse function :
Choose an element in the original inspector right HTML panel and send the request to the Chropah tab
4 - Add an option to only display Xpath ot CSS selector (for my use Xpath selectors is not important)

- Rated 5 out of 5by Christian Saborio, 5 years agoI was having trouble finding a selector for my CodeCeption tests using ChromeDriver. Although this extension requires some (minor) tweaking only once (which is very well documented), I found it an absolute joy and intuitive to use. Persist with that initial setup, it will pay off.
By using this app I was able to not only figure the parent selector that I needed to target, but also to verify the child selector all within its GUI, kinda like the FF inspector when you are testing jQuery selectors.
Love it, thank you for your hard work in making this available to others!
