Above commit supports single quote in XPath where previously only double quote is required to send XPath to Chrome.

You can download the latest copy of TagUI with this fix and unzip to overwrite your existing installation (please drag the folders under tagui\src to overwrite your existing installation) - https://github.com/kelaberetiv/TagUI/archive/master.zip

In the next release, this fix will become part of the packaged zip files. Following is tested to work correctly. The fix works by detecting if an identifier provided is XPath, and if it is replace all single quotes to double quotes.

Check more on edge cases -

click //*[text() = "it's here"]

Found that for the old version, following does not work anyway. Thus this change won't be causing issue for a working case.

click //*[text() = "it's here"]
click //*[text() = "it\'s here"]
