In Selenium WebDriver, driver.find_element is a method used to locate a single web element on a webpage so that you can interact with it. It searches the DOM using a specific locator strategy such as ID, name, XPath, CSS selector, class name, tag name, or link text. Once the element is found, actions like click, sendKeys, or getText can be performed. This method is fundamental for automating user interactions and validating UI behavior. In any practical Selenium certification course, learning how and when to use driver.find_element correctly is essential for building stable, reliable automation scripts.
