Get Elements should not raise timeout exception when no elements found. It should return an empty list.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Selectors can match multiple targets. Currently Get element just “randomly” returns the first match. This might not be the correct thing. Get Element is used so that further manipulations or validations can be made to that element. Selector might match 0, 1 or N elements.

Describe the solution you’d like Replace Get Element with Get Elements that returns a list of matches. Also have assertion engine there for easy manipulation of that list such as Get Elements selector then value[0]

Describe alternatives you’ve considered Get Element might also raise an error when multiple matches.

Hi, in my opinion Get Elements should allow to return an empty list instead of raising “Could not find element with selector XXX within timeout.” exception, just like SeleniumLibrary

Maybe I just need to set the timeout to 0… 🤪
