Do you know that
1) DevTools doesn't provides the right count of selector's match because it also gives string match. For ex- try to find all the links in a page using //a.

2) When DevTools shows 0 matching nodes, it is not 100% true. For ex- You write the correct selector for shadow dom element then also it will show 0 matching node.

3) DevTools doesn't generate correct XPath for all the web elements. Ex- Try to copy xpath for any SVG element.
