After thinking of it I feel like I decided to decline the feature request because:
aListOfDocElement.filter { it.toCssSeletor.matches("some regex".toRegex() } What I can imagine is to provide a helper function that is doing the filtering EDIT: |

example: <body>
i'm the body
<header>
<h1>i'm the headline</h1>
<nav>
<ol class='ordered-navigation'>
<li>1st nav item</li>
<li>2nd nav item</li>
<li>3rd nav item</li>
<li>last nav item</li>
</ol>
<ul class='unordered-navigation'>
<li>1st nav item</li>
<li>2nd nav item</li>
<li>3rd nav item</li>
<li>last nav item</li>
</ul>
</nav>
</header>
</body>assuming @Test
fun `can pick element by css selector matching regex`() {
val someRegex = "^(ol|ul).*navigation$".toRegex()
aValidDocument {
findBySelectorMatching(someRegex) {
expectThat(map { it.toCssSelector }).containsExactly(
"html > body > header > nav > ol.ordered-navigation",
"html > body > header > nav > ul.unordered-navigation"
)
}
}
}
@Test

The filter idea looks great actually! Thanks a lot for that commit too! So for CSS selectors, I can just use it in the test examples and for other attributes (like id), I can use filters very nice! Like this: I have one more request too but I am not sure if I should open a new issue for it. Can you add an example of how to import the library when using the SNAPSHOT version of the library |
