byAttribute

@CheckReturnValue
 @Nonnull
public static org.openqa.selenium.By byAttribute(java.lang.String attributeName,
                                                                             java.lang.String attributeValue)

Find elements having attribute with given value.

Examples: <div binding="fieldValue"></div> Find element with attribute 'binding' EXACTLY containing text 'fieldValue' , use: byAttribute("binding", "fieldValue")

For finding difficult/generated data attribute which contains some value: <div binding="userName17fk5n6kc2Ds45F40d0fieldValue_promoLanding word"></div>

Find element with attribute 'binding' CONTAINING text 'fieldValue', use symbol '*' with attribute name: byAttribute("binding*", "fieldValue") it same as By.cssSelector("[binding*='fieldValue']")

Find element whose attribute 'binding' BEGINS with 'userName', use symbol '^' with attribute name: byAttribute("binding^", "fieldValue")

Find element whose attribute 'binding' ENDS with 'promoLanding', use symbol '$' with attribute name: byAttribute("binding$", "promoLanding")

Find element whose attribute 'binding' CONTAINING WORD 'word': byAttribute("binding~", "word")
