What is LWC ShadowPath Generator?

'LWC ShadowPath Generator' is a specialized Chrome extension designed to alleviate the complexities typically associated with generating selector paths within Lightning Web Component's Synthetic Shadow DOM. It mimics Chrome's in-built 'Copy JS Path' functionality, making it easier to replace obsolete Selenium selectors in your testing, thus resulting in more accurate and efficient Java test coding.

Analyze keywords

Chrome Extension to generate Selector paths for elements encapsulated by our LWC components' Synthetic Shadow DOM.
Attempting to reproduce the functionality of Copy > Copy JS Path that Chrome provides for native Shadow DOM

To Use:

Inspect any element to open Element Inspector, and then open up the LWC ShadowRoot panel by clicking '>>' on the far right.
Select the element that the obsolete Selenium selector used to select.
Copy and paste from the panel's jspath field into the console to confirm that it is selecting the desired element (remove the extra surrounding double quotes after pasting).
Copy and paste from the panel's java field into existing java test code to replace the obsolete Selenium selector.

User reviews

Seems the js path works great when I paste it manually into the console, but does NOT work when executed from the Content Script of a Chrome Extension. Uncaught TypeError occurs.
