Features & Capabilities

xPath Finder is a user-friendly Chrome extension designed to help developers and testers quickly locate and copy the XPath of any web page element. Simply activate the plugin to change your cursor into a crosshair, hover over elements to highlight them, and click to display their XPath in a panel at the bottom of the page.

The extension offers several convenient options including toggling the inspector on or off, auto-copying XPath to the clipboard, selecting between short ID-based or full XPath expressions, and adjusting the position of the XPath display box. This makes xPath Finder an essential tool for web developers and QA professionals aiming to streamline their workflow and improve productivity.

User Reviews

Users generally praise the add-on as effective and easy to use, but multiple reviewers report selection issues: the crosshair/selection mode often doesn’t activate, requiring clicks or page reloads. A promised shift+cursor feature seems absent for some. Behavior can be inconsistent across Firefox versions, with a few users finding it non-functional.
Pros
  • Effectively finds/provides XPaths for many users (several positive reviews)
  • Easy to install and use — multiple users reported it worked properly after installation
  • Widespread positive user sentiment (described as fantastic, superb, best)
Cons
  • Selection mode often fails to activate (cursor doesn’t change to crosshair; users can’t select elements)
  • Users report having to click elements (and sometimes reload the page) to get an XPath instead of a non-click selection method
  • A promised shift+cursor selection feature appears missing or not working in the latest release
  • Inconsistent behavior across Firefox versions — some users report it doesn’t work at all
Recent reviews
At first I didn't understand how to use it. Then I saw that after clicking on the extension, the path is saved to the clipboard

Is xPath Finder Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

xPath Finder requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

xPath Finder has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
