Hi,
In this post, you will see demonstration of "tagName" locator usage.
"tagName" is one of the 8 locators supported by selenium.
For instance, display all the anchors "a" or "images" alternative texts on amazaon india page @ https://www.amazon.in/
selenium identifies the "a" and "image" tags with the following java statements.
