I am trying to click the above button. Next button.click. I have tried both xpath and css selector to find the button.
Also, I can only fetch the text from the first story above, the rest elemenets are present, but no text can be fetched from that. the p tag and the texts are present in the DOM and can be seen in the first story itself. last line.
Kindly help regarding the same.

New to automation and could use some help here.
I am using Selenium Webdriver and Java on this website - Webdriver University and so far this code has been throwing No Such Element exception at "element.click()" step (i.e., doesn't find the element on page):
driver.manage().window().maximize();
driver.get("http://webdriveruniversity.com");
Thread.sleep(3000);
// Follow the link to another page
WebElement link = driver.findElementByXPath("(//div[#class=\"section-title\"])[6]");
link.click();
Thread.sleep(3000);
// Click on the element
WebElement element = driver.findElementByXPath("(//button[#class='accordion'])[1]");
element.click();
However, when I go to the linked page directly, it finds the element just fine
driver.manage().window().maximize();
driver.get("http://webdriveruniversity.com/Accordion/index.html");
// Click on the element
WebElement element = driver.findElementByXPath("(//button[#class='accordion'])[1]");
element.click();
I've used wait for element visibility and Thread sleeps, same results.
Any idea what could be the issue here?
Did you notice that when you click the link, page is opened in new tab? That is your issue.
You need to switch to new tab.
ArrayList<String> tabs = new ArrayList<String> (driver.getWindowHandles());
driver.switchTo().window(tabs.get(1)); //here you are switch to second tab
Hope the below code will solve your issues.
Used the getWindowHandles() to capture handle of newly opened tab and switch to the
tab
// Follow the link to another page
WebElement link = driver.findElement(By.xpath("(//div[#class=\"section-title\"][6]"));
link.click();
Set<String> allWindow = driver.getWindowHandles();
Iterator<String> itr = allWindow.iterator();
while (itr.hasNext()) {
String wind = itr.next().toString();
driver.switchTo().window(wind);
}
Thread.sleep(3000);
// Click on the element
WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.xpath("(//button[#class='accordion'][1]"));
element.click();
Thread.sleep(3000);
driver.close();
}
I am practising coding on Selenium Java.
I click on compose section and entered To,Subject and Body and trying to click on the dotted lines to select label as Social but unable to click on the section.
Please find the below code.
#Test
public void testSendEmail() throws Exception {
driver.get("https://mail.google.com/");
WebElement userElement = driver.findElement(By.id("identifierId"));
userElement.sendKeys(properties.getProperty("username"));
driver.findElement(By.id("identifierNext")).click();
Thread.sleep(1000);
WebElement passwordElement = driver.findElement(By.name("password"));
passwordElement.sendKeys(properties.getProperty("password"));
driver.findElement(By.id("passwordNext")).click();
Thread.sleep(1000);
WebElement composeElement = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[contains(text(),'Compose')]"));
composeElement.click();
WebDriverWait wait=new WebDriverWait(driver, 20);
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//textarea[#name='to']")));
//To Field
driver.findElement(By.name("to")).clear();
driver.findElement(By.name("to")).sendKeys(String.format("%s#gmail.com", properties.getProperty("username")));
//Subject Field
String emailSubject = properties.getProperty("email.subject");
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[#name='subjectbox']")).sendKeys(emailSubject);
//Body
String emailBody = properties.getProperty("email.body");
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[#class='Ar Au']//div")).sendKeys(emailBody);
//More options----Line where I am unable to click on the dotted lines to mark label as social.
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[#id=':q6']/div[2]")).click();
Thread.sleep(2000);
//Hover on Label
WebElement Label=driver.findElement(By.xpath("(//div[contains(text(),'Label')])[1]"));
WebElement Social=driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[contains(text(),'Social')]"));
Actions a=new Actions(driver);
a.moveToElement(Label);
Thread.sleep(5000);
a.moveToElement(Social).click().build().perform();
Thread.sleep(5000);
//Click On Send
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[#role='button' and text()='Send']")).click();
It is very difficult to answer without seeing the html.
Instead of:
Actions a=new Actions(driver);
a.moveToElement(Label);
Thread.sleep(5000);
a.moveToElement(Social).click().build().perform();
Try this:
a.moveToElement(Label).build().perform();
waitUntil(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeVisible(Social)).click();
I used explicit waits and I have the warning:
org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException:
Element is not clickable at point (36, 72). Other element would receive
the click: ...
Command duration or timeout: 393 milliseconds
If I use Thread.sleep(2000) I don't receive any warnings.
#Test(dataProvider = "menuData")
public void Main(String btnMenu, String TitleResultPage, String Text) throws InterruptedException {
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
driver.findElement(By.id("navigationPageButton")).click();
try {
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.cssSelector(btnMenu)));
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Oh");
}
driver.findElement(By.cssSelector(btnMenu)).click();
Assert.assertEquals(driver.findElement(By.cssSelector(TitleResultPage)).getText(), Text);
}
WebDriverException: Element is not clickable at point (x, y)
This is a typical org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException which extends java.lang.RuntimeException.
The fields of this exception are :
BASE_SUPPORT_URL : protected static final java.lang.String BASE_SUPPORT_URL
DRIVER_INFO : public static final java.lang.String DRIVER_INFO
SESSION_ID : public static final java.lang.String SESSION_ID
About your individual usecase, the error tells it all :
WebDriverException: Element is not clickable at point (x, y). Other element would receive the click
It is clear from your code block that you have defined the wait as WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10); but you are calling the click() method on the element before the ExplicitWait comes into play as in until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable).
Solution
The error Element is not clickable at point (x, y) can arise from different factors. You can address them by either of the following procedures:
1. Element not getting clicked due to JavaScript or AJAX calls present
Try to use Actions Class:
WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id("navigationPageButton"));
Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
actions.moveToElement(element).click().build().perform();
2. Element not getting clicked as it is not within Viewport
Try to use JavascriptExecutor to bring the element within the Viewport:
WebElement myelement = driver.findElement(By.id("navigationPageButton"));
JavascriptExecutor jse2 = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
jse2.executeScript("arguments[0].scrollIntoView()", myelement);
3. The page is getting refreshed before the element gets clickable.
In this case induce ExplicitWait i.e WebDriverWait as mentioned in point 4.
4. Element is present in the DOM but not clickable.
In this case induce ExplicitWait with ExpectedConditions set to elementToBeClickable for the element to be clickable:
WebDriverWait wait2 = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
wait2.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.id("navigationPageButton")));
5. Element is present but having temporary Overlay.
In this case, induce ExplicitWait with ExpectedConditions set to invisibilityOfElementLocated for the Overlay to be invisible.
WebDriverWait wait3 = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
wait3.until(ExpectedConditions.invisibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("ele_to_inv")));
6. Element is present but having permanent Overlay.
Use JavascriptExecutor to send the click directly on the element.
WebElement ele = driver.findElement(By.xpath("element_xpath"));
JavascriptExecutor executor = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
executor.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", ele);
In case you need to use it with Javascript
We can use arguments[0].click() to simulate click operation.
var element = element(by.linkText('webdriverjs'));
browser.executeScript("arguments[0].click()",element);
I ran into this error while trying to click some element (or its overlay, I didn't care), and the other answers didn't work for me. I fixed it by using the elementFromPoint DOM API to find the element that Selenium wanted me to click on instead:
element_i_care_about = something()
loc = element_i_care_about.location
element_to_click = driver.execute_script(
"return document.elementFromPoint(arguments[0], arguments[1]);",
loc['x'],
loc['y'])
element_to_click.click()
I've also had situations where an element was moving, for example because an element above it on the page was doing an animated expand or collapse. In that case, this Expected Condition class helped. You give it the elements that are animated, not the ones you want to click. This version only works for jQuery animations.
class elements_not_to_be_animated(object):
def __init__(self, locator):
self.locator = locator
def __call__(self, driver):
try:
elements = EC._find_elements(driver, self.locator)
# :animated is an artificial jQuery selector for things that are
# currently animated by jQuery.
return driver.execute_script(
'return !jQuery(arguments[0]).filter(":animated").length;',
elements)
except StaleElementReferenceException:
return False
You can try
WebElement navigationPageButton = (new WebDriverWait(driver, 10))
.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(By.id("navigationPageButton")));
navigationPageButton.click();
Scrolling the page to the near by point mentioned in the exception did the trick for me. Below is code snippet:
$wd_host = 'http://localhost:4444/wd/hub';
$capabilities =
[
\WebDriverCapabilityType::BROWSER_NAME => 'chrome',
\WebDriverCapabilityType::PROXY => [
'proxyType' => 'manual',
'httpProxy' => PROXY_DOMAIN.':'.PROXY_PORT,
'sslProxy' => PROXY_DOMAIN.':'.PROXY_PORT,
'noProxy' => PROXY_EXCEPTION // to run locally
],
];
$webDriver = \RemoteWebDriver::create($wd_host, $capabilities, 250000, 250000);
...........
...........
// Wait for 3 seconds
$webDriver->wait(3);
// Scrolls the page vertically by 70 pixels
$webDriver->executeScript("window.scrollTo(0, 70);");
NOTE: I use Facebook php webdriver
If element is not clickable and overlay issue is ocuring we use arguments[0].click().
WebElement ele = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[#class='input-group-btn']/input"));
JavascriptExecutor executor = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
executor.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", ele);
The best solution is to override the click functionality:
public void _click(WebElement element){
boolean flag = false;
while(true) {
try{
element.click();
flag=true;
}
catch (Exception e){
flag = false;
}
if(flag)
{
try{
element.click();
}
catch (Exception e){
System.out.printf("Element: " +element+ " has beed clicked, Selenium exception triggered: " + e.getMessage());
}
break;
}
}
}
In C#, I had problem with checking RadioButton,
and this worked for me:
driver.ExecuteJavaScript("arguments[0].checked=true", radio);
Can try with below code
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 30);
Pass other element would receive the click:<a class="navbar-brand" href="#"></a>
boolean invisiable = wait.until(ExpectedConditions
.invisibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//div[#class='navbar-brand']")));
Pass clickable button id as shown below
if (invisiable) {
WebElement ele = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[#id='button']");
ele.click();
}
I am trying to automate functional testing of a web application using Selenium and Java. In my application there are several menus. When clicked on a particular menu, a drop down of sub menus appear
click to view screenshot of menu
I use below code to click sub menu
driver.findElement(By.xpath("id=menu")).click();
driver.findElement(By.xpath("id=sub_menu_a")).click();
but the issue is that it throws a 'ElementNotVisibleException' at the second line. The same happens even if I use implicit wait
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
explicit wait
WebElement element = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("id=sub_menu_a")));
and fluent wait.
Wait<WebDriver> fluentWait=new FluentWait<WebDriver>(driver)
.withTimeout(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
.pollingEvery(2, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
.ignoring(NoSuchElementException.class,ElementNotVisibleException.class);
WebElement element=fluentWait.until(new Function<WebDriver, WebElement>() {
public WebElement apply(WebDriver driver){
driver.findElement(By.xpath("id=menu"));
return driver.findElement(By.xpath("id=sub_menu_a"));
}
});
element.click();
but no luck. But the code works fine if add sleep time using
Thread.sleep(sleeptime);
before and after the first line of code. But it is not a permanent solution since the page load time may vary depend on the network speed and the data in the page. Is there any other solution?
Try this
WebElement menu=driver.findElement(By.xpath("id=menu"));
JavascriptExecutor executor = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
executor.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", menu);
WebElement subMenu=driver.findElement(By.xpath("id=sub_menu_a"));
executor.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", subMenu);
Hope this work
Try to use Actions class and see if it works or not ...
driver.findElement(By.xpath("id=menu")).click();
WebElement subMenu=driver.findElement(By.xpath("id=sub_menu_a"));
Actions myaction = new Actions(driver);
myaction.moveToElement(subMenu);
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 15);
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(subMenu));
myaction.click().perform();
Fluent waits should work fine.
Try using something like this:
Wait<WebDriver> wait = new FluentWait<WebDriver>(driver).withTimeout(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS).ignoring(NoSuchElementException.class);
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("id=sub_menu_a")));
but I would go for css Selectors they are perfect for html pages.
Wait<WebDriver> wait = new FluentWait<WebDriver>(driver).withTimeout(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS).ignoring(NoSuchElementException.class);
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.cssSelector("#sub_menu_a")));
Or if your sub_menu_a is a child of menu I would go for
Wait<WebDriver> wait = new FluentWait<WebDriver>(driver).withTimeout(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS).ignoring(NoSuchElementException.class);
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.cssSelector("#menu #sub_menu_a")));
Could you try
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 15);
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("id=sub_menu_a")));
Also it would be better if you can give html to find the right xpath as I think better XPATH will yield the result of click on the submenu.
Long time ago I have the similar issue (don't remember the exact case so indeed your HTML page snipped would be helpful) so I was forced to use Thread.sleep()
To avoid long waits will propose something like this method:
static void waitAndClick(WebDriver driver, By by, int attempts, int sleep) throws InterruptedException {
for (int i = 0; i < attempts; i++) {
WebElement element = null;
try {
element = driver.findElement(by);
} catch (NoSuchElementException e) {
// Do nothing
}
if (element == null) {
int time = sleep * (i + 1);
Thread.sleep(time);
} else {
element.click();
break;
}
}
throw new NoSuchElementException("Error");
}
It's not a 100% complete solution but just an idea.
