Answer 1

To find the parent classname of the WebElement you need to induce WebDriverWait for the visibility_of_element_located() and you can use the following Locator Strategy:

• Code Block:

  driver.get("https://www.zalando.dk/cart")
  print(WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//div[text()='Fortsæt med at shoppe']//parent::button[1]"))).get_attribute("class"))
  

• Console Output:

  z-1-button z-coast-base-primary-accessible undefined z-1-button--primary z-1-button--button
  

• Note : You have to add the following imports :

  from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
  from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
  from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
