Using multiple locators for identifying an object

[shaktim121]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The problem is while trying to identify an object with two or multiple locators
Ex: I want to check the application for a button with text: Button1 and class_name: WinButton

Describe the solution you'd like
Ex1: Click Button text:Button1 && class_name:WinButton
Ex2: Click Button text:Button1 AND class_name:WinButton

@eeter : any update ? seems like method _get_search_criteria needs to be changed as it need to handle chain method SearchCriteria.ByAutomationId("foo").AndByText("bar"). Any idea how to implement may be I can help you in PR.

This would be a very useful feature. There has been some discussion around it but no one has yet looked into actually implementing it. @MummanaSubramanya if you are interested in implementing it that would be great!

As you said _get_search_criteria should be updated to handle multiple search strategies. It should able to parse the locators and then create the chained search criteria.

One of the questions I have had is what the locator syntax should be like for chained locators. I think that from a user's point of view the Ex2 by @shaktim121 is probably the clearest option:

Click Button    text:Button1 AND class_name:WinButton

With this syntax the user should have the possibility to escape the string "AND" in case the locator value itself contains it.
