On the http://www.freecrm.com login page, the structure is such that the username, password, and the login button are contained inside the form with id=xyz. In such a situation, the child elements can be accessed using findElements on the container or parent element.

The following code displays the number of input elements in the form:

public class DynamicText1 {
 public static void main(String[] args) {
     System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver",
     "C:\SeleniumWD\src\main\resources\chromedriver.exe");
     WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
     driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
     driver.get("http://www.freecrm.com");
     String dynamicXpath = "//*[@id='loginForm']";
     List<WebElement> elem =    
    driver.findElements(By.xpath(dynamicXpath));
     List<WebElement> elem1 = 
     elem.get(0).findElements(By.tagName("input"));
     System.out.println("no of elements: " + elem1.size());
    }
}

The output displayed in console is shown below
no of elements: 3

This is a very simple program which has hardcoded values. To remove hardcoding from a program, we require a framework, which we will discuss in forthcoming chapters.
