public class ByJQuerySelector extends By {           private final String jQuerySelector;           public ByJQuerySelector(String selector) {           this.jQuerySelector = selector;         }           @Override         public List findElements(SearchContext context) {           //TODO:Implement           return null;         }           @Override         public WebElement findElement(SearchContext context) {           return (RemoteWebElement) ((JavascriptExecutor) context)               .executeScript("return $('" + jQuerySelector+ "').get(0);");         }           @Override         public String toString() {           return "By.jQuerySelector: " + jQuerySelector;         }   }

Now you can select a WebElement with a JQuery selector.

@Test public void example6(){     driver.get("http://www.o2.co.uk/broadband");       //Now I can use JQuery selectors to find elements on the page!     By loc = new ByJQuerySelector("a[title=Sign In]");       driver.findElement(loc).click();       assertEquals("O2 - Sign in - View bills , balances and emails in your My O2 account:",driver.getTitle()); }
