[XPath selectors](https://scrapfly.io/blog/posts/parsing-html-with-xpath) are one of the most popular ways to parse HTML pages when web scraping. Using Selenium, to find elements by XPath we can use `driver.find_element()` and `driver.find_elements()` methods:

python```python
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get("https://httpbin.dev/html")

element = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, '//p')
# then we can get the element text
print(element.text)
"Availing himself of the mild, summer-cool weather that now reigned in these latitudes..."
# we can also get tag name and attributes:
print(element.tag_name)
print(element.get_attribute("class"))

# for multiple elements we need to iterate
for element in driver.find_elements(By.XPATH, '//p'):
    print(element.text)

driver.close()
```
