Trying to find some text and then right click on that text. The table is dynamic so I cannot presume to know the cell positions of where the value to search for is or the value to click on. so for example I want to find a name and then right click on the name itself
The right click menu seems to be called class = context menu, and the values are class = context_item (See attached screenshots) (html included also)
I know that this part works, but the rest below it is having an issue - col = row.find_element(By.XPATH, '//a[contains(text() , "Luke Wilson")]')
