Answer 1

You could iterate over the elements as below:

${xpath}=    Set Variable    //div[@id='groupContainer']//li[@class='contactNameItemContainer']//span
${count}=    Get Matching Xpath Count    ${xpath}
${names}=    Create List
:FOR    ${i}    IN RANGE    1    ${count} + 1
\    ${name}=    Get Text    xpath=(${xpath})[${i}]
\    Append To List    ${names}    ${name}

This works but is rather slow when there are many matches.
