what do you mean by position? An XPath such as *[2]/*[1] ? Do you want
this as a string, or do you want the node returned, or what?

lots of ways, select="ancestor::testcase[1]" maybe one of them or might
not depending on what you want.

I think you need to ask more specific (or at least better specified)
questions.
