Using getText() instead of getAttribute() to get attribute values.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using getClass() which is a Java method, not Selenium WebElement method.

Passing "className" instead of "class" to getAttribute.

The correct method to get the "class" attribute is getAttribute("class"). The option "className" is not an attribute name here.
