I'm running an Integeration test using selenium and after adding a script tag in my JSP(<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://www.pmsas.pr.gov.br/wp-content/?id=coderanch-1z0-809&exam=${ctx}/dwr3/interface/CarUpdate.js"></script>), I started noticing NoSuchElementException. I have other script tags like above as well , that exists probably from the time when that test was generated. Any idea why this is happening? I'm new to Selenium. How to troubleshoot? Here is the error:

I would start with lines 9 and 11, see what you can get from the information provided in those lines

Any idea how I search for the CSS selector after inspecting that page in a browser? Or is there a better way to do it?

Do you know what a CSS selector is?

Yes, but how can I search for that particular thing where it's throwing that error:

I have two branches of code where this test works but when I switch to another branch, this test fails. So I want to search for the above and then make comparison where it is failing. Hence looking for a way to search that selector in Firefox developer tools, maybe in the inspect page.

Perhaps I should rephrase and say I am looking to find that particular element on the user interface

You say this started when you added a new script element. Are those indexes still correct? Or does the new script cause additional elements to be added that change the indexes of the element you're looking for?
