locator in selenium code example

Example 1: locators in selenium

- There are 8 locators.
    - id, class, name, linktext, partialLinktext,
      cssSelector, xpath, tagName
      
 - First I would check for id. If there is id,
  and it is not dynamic, I would go for id.
- If not, I would quickly check for it if 
  there is unique class or name attribute value
-If it is link, I would use linkText or
  partiallinktext
-If none available than I would go for xpath
