About Locator Inspector

Stop guessing selectors in DevTools. Locator Inspector ranks every reasonable way to find the element you clicked — test id, role + accessible name, label, placeholder, visible text, stable id, a short CSS path, and XPath as a last resort — and hands you the snippet for Playwright or Cypress. • Ranks by stability, the way the Playwright docs recommend (user-facing locators first). • Flags generated ids and hashed class names so you don't ship a selector that breaks on the next build. • Tells you when a locator matches more than one element, and how many. • One click to copy. Remembers your framework. • No account, no sign-in, no network requests. The picker only runs on a page when you click "Pick an element". Works on any site. Built by test-automation engineers for test-automation engineers.
