Getting row count of HTML table always returns 1?

Question

I wish to grab an HTML table and extract the number of rows it has. I stumbled upon a solution linked here link. However, the proposed solution always returns row count of 1. I've alswo tried the IList<IWebElement> approach to get the length, but the result is the same. My table structure is pretty straightforward. Table's HTML is below.

How to get the total number of <tr>'s?

<table id="splitter_callbackWorkAreaPanel_workAreaUC_gvAdminArea_DXMainTable" class="dxgvTable" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" onclick="ASPx.GTableClick('splitter_callbackWorkAreaPanel_workAreaUC_gvAdminArea', event);" ondblclick="ASPx.GVTableDblClick('splitter_callbackWorkAreaPanel_workAreaUC_gvAdminArea', event);" oncontextmenu="return ASPx.GVContextMenu('splitter_callbackWorkAreaPanel_workAreaUC_gvAdminArea',event);" style="width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;empty-cells:show;table-layout:fixed;overflow:hidden;text-overflow:ellipsis;">
<tbody>
    <tr class="dxgvArm">

This is what I have tried so far:

int rowCount = Driver
    .chrome
    .FindElements(
        By.XPath("//[@id=\"splitter_callbackWorkAreaPanel_workAreaUC_gvAdminArea_DXMainTable\"]"))
            .Count();

var rowCount1 = Driver
    .chrome
    .FindElements
        (By.XPath("//*[@id=\"splitter_callbackWorkAreaPanel_workAreaUC_gvAdminArea_DXMainTable\"]/tbody"))
            .Count();

IList <IWebElement> table = Driver
    .chrome
    .FindElements(
         By.XPath("//*[@id=\"splitter_callbackWorkAreaPanel_workAreaUC_gvAdminArea_DXMainTable\"]"));

i have updated my answer check out it is accordingly the link you reffered — Rao, Commented Dec 20, 2018 at 13:40
So far, I've tried these approaches: int rowCount = Driver.chrome.FindElements(By.XPath("//*[@id=\"splitter_callbackWorkAreaPanel_workAreaUC_gvAdminArea_DXMainTable\"]")).Count();<br/> var rowCount1 = Driver.chrome.FindElements(By.XPath("//*[@id=\"splitter_callbackWorkAreaPanel_workAreaUC_gvAdminArea_DXMainTable\"]/tbody")).Count(); <br/> IList <IWebElement> table = Driver.chrome.FindElements(By.XPath("//*[@id=\"splitter_callbackWorkAreaPanel_workAreaUC_gvAdminArea_DXMainTable\"]")); — Nikola Pepic, Commented Dec 20, 2018 at 13:44
this is because your xpath is till table and there is only 1 table so count will be 1 only — Rao, Commented Dec 20, 2018 at 13:48

Try this out

var table = driver.FindElement(By.TagName("tbody"));
var rows = table.FindElements(By.TagName("tr"));
foreach (var row in rows)
{
  Console.WriteLine(row);       
}

and as your link

driver.FindElements(By.XPath("//table[@id='splitter_callbackWorkAreaPanel_workAreaUC_gvAdminArea_DXMainTable'//tbody//tr")).Count;

Looking at what you have tried I see you did not count the number of rows, but a number of tables instead, that is why you always got 1 out of it.

To get the row count you can do as simple as this:

int rowCount = Driver
    .chrome
    .FindElements(
         By.CssSelector("table[class='dxgvTable'] tr")).Count();

tr is table row in html, so that is what you should be looking for.
