As an SDET, I'm always looking for quicker/easier ways to get selectors that are non-brittle. The trick is to analyze either the CSS or XPath selector and optimize it so it's neither brittle nor a mile long. This is something I've learned to do by hand, but optimizing as I've indicated doesn't seem to be a part of the tools I've seen.

Also of note: Selenium was really designed for "Web 1.x" and doesn't assume the dynamic DOMs of today. Modern frameworks like Playwright are built with the understanding that the DOM is dynamic and are more robust. So - consider Playwright (or something like it - although I think it's "best of breed") vs. Selenium.
