To get the parent node of an element in Capybara, you can use the find method to locate the element and then use the find(:xpath, '..') method to traverse to its parent node.


For example, if you have an element with the id "child_element" and you want to get its parent node, you can do the following:

1
2
child_element = find('#child_element')
parent_node = child_element.find(:xpath, '..')


This will return the parent node of the element with the id "child_element". You can then interact with the parent node as needed in your test script.
