Automate – Css Selector X

🔹 AutoMate – CSS Selector XPath Locator Finder

Generate reliable CSS selectors & XPath locators instantly.
Pick elements visually, copy in one click, and validate locators by highlighting them.
No DevTools. No trial-and-error.

AutoMate is a Chrome extension built for QA engineers, SDETs, and test automation engineers to quickly generate stable CSS and XPath locators for web elements.

Finding unique and maintainable locators is one of the most time-consuming and error-prone parts of UI automation. AutoMate simplifies this by allowing users to visually pick elements directly from the page and instantly receive well-ranked locator suggestions.

🚀 New in v1.3.0: Highlight elements using a CSS selector or XPath, making it easy to validate locators before using them in automation scripts.

🔹 How It Works
• Open the AutoMate Chrome extension
• Click Locator Genius to activate pick mode
• Hover over any element on the page to highlight it
• Click the element to generate CSS and XPath locator suggestions
• Copy the desired locator with a single click

🔹Highlight Elements (New Feature – v1.3.0)
• Paste a CSS selector or XPath
• Click Highlight
• AutoMate highlights the matched element(s) instantly

This is extremely useful for quickly validating locators before using them in Selenium, Playwright, Cypress, etc.
