One method in Selenium

Chaoui05 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi everymonks ! i have this following issue. I would like to add one test in my function using Selenium module, to check my page 'logout' . I used this native method from this module. But i don't understand why it doesn't work . I have an error in my CLI .

$elem = $driver->find_element_by_link('/logout','href');
    $driver->mouse_move_to_location(element => $elem); # xoffset => x,
+ yoffset => y
    $driver->click_ok('LEFT');
[download]

My web code related found with the chrome inspector is : a href="/logout" class="faa-parent animated-hover">

And my error message in CLI is : An element could not be located on the page using the given search parameters: /logout,link text at C:/Strawberry/Finders.pm line 18.

Many Thanks guys !!

The documentation of the method is not detailed enough, but looking at the tests, it seems that `find_element_by_link` takes the link text as the parameter, not the value and name of an attribute. I'd try XPath instead: `my $elem = $driver->find_element('//a[@href="/logout"]');` [download] ($q=q:Sq=~/;[c](.)(.)/;chr(-\|\|-\|5+lengthSq)`"S\|oS2"`map{chr \|+ord }map{substrSq`S_+\|`\|}3E\|-\|`7**2-3:)=~y+S\|`+$1,++print+eval$q,q,a, [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
