How do I select sibling node of the current node?
Here is the snippet:

<div id="main">
    <a class="test" href="test.html">Hello</a>
    <div>Some text</div>
</div>

//script
$(".test").click(function() { $("this:parent > div").toggle(); });
or
$(".test").click(function() { $("this ~ div").toggle(); });

None of these works. I know I can access current object using $(this) but in this case I don’t know how.

    Here are a few options:

    $(".test").click(function() { 
        $(this).next('div').toggle(); 
    });
    
    $(".test").click(function() { 
        $(this).siblings('div').toggle(); 
    });
    
    $(".test").click(function() { 
        $(this).closest('div#main').find('div').toggle(); 
    });
    

    Just depends on what else is in your HTML markup for which one you want to choose.
