Get Element Tag Name - WebDriver 编辑

The Get Element Tag Name command of the WebDriver API returns the tag name of the referenced web element. If for example the element is an <img>, the returned tag name is "IMG", which is equivalent to calling Element.tagName on the element. For XML/XHTML documents it may be cased differently.
