As most of us know that big companies or banking sector companies or even government sector companies use only Microsoft products and avoid using any open source products. Like that if they have any internal website like Intranet for their organisation or any communication channel, they only prefer to run those websites on IE Browser.
IE Browser is one of the most secured browser and there are thousands of websites which are allowed to access only via Internet Explorer browser. Such IE only websites are not allowed to access through any other browsers like Firefox or google chrome so you can access such sites In Internet Explorer browser only.
In this complete series of Locators & XPath we learnt about many tools which come with Chrome, Firefox or IE in the form of build in plugin or as Add-Ons. So, now let’s say that you need to automate an application which is allowed to access only on IE Browser. How would you identify the locators or XPath for the web elements?
For that we have two options to use, either we can use IE Inspector or we can also use Fire IE Selenium Tool for IE Browser which can help us to get element locators for IE only websites. This tool is an XLSM file that is an extension for an Excel macro-enabled workbook.
