Selenium JavaScript Clicking in a Dropdown Menu
The below code goes to a page, finds the dropdown menu and clicks the first one in the list. How do I adjust the following code to be able to select the second or third item in the list?

.findElement(By.css('#historyTabDropdown ul>li>a'))
.then(e => e.click());

Try using css selector nth-child.
The css is li:nth-child(2)
await browser
.findElement(By.css('#historyTabDropdown ul>li:nth-child(2)>a'))
.then(e => e.click());
This worked, thank you!
