@jimboslice by any chance does the element you’re trying to click on have multiple child nodes - where the first child node is text?

Hi !… I need to get value ( background-image ) assigned to a pseudo element. Can I do …using webElement ? some thing like: -------------------->HTML: div id=“my-id” class=“my-class error-class” ::before </div> -------------------->CSS: .my-class.error-class:before { background: url(../../img/warning.svg) no-repeat 0 0; } --------------------EXPECTED: I need to validate this warning image appear. I’m tryi

window.getComputedStyle(document.querySelector(‘.my-class.error-class’), ‘:before’).backgroundImage; Many Thanks in Advance !!!!

@jimevans Lets chaat about my issue tomorrow - but I’m pretty sure I’ve narrowed it down to an element (not anchor or span since they match IsInline) that needs to be scrolled into view when a click is attempted and hat also matches Element::HasFirstChildTextNodeOfMultipleChildren() - which I believe means there’s an issue with the location calculated in https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/blob/mas...

Why does it say everywhere that 3.14.0 is the latest version of Selenium when there are versions up to 3.9 in http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/seleniumhq/se...

@simonstewart - Do we have slack group for newly built IDE? Would that discussion happen here too?

Anyone know any tricks that need to be done to get selenium and chromedriver to work on a macpro?

Hi

Anyone got any ideas on what could cause NoSuchElementException from Selenium when using find_element_by_XPath? I'm not sure if it's a dynamically produced page, and the source code is weird, but there are no iframes as far as I can tell. Using the wait function causes a timeout exception. I've had this issue before and solved it by using JavaScript scripts to do what I wanted, so the XPath shouldn't be the issue.

Apparently it occurs due to : 1. Element properties are dynamic 2. Due to timeout issue 3. Element is in the frame/Iframe.

re 3: There's no iframes, so that shouldn't be the issue

re 2: I've tried having it wait for 30s and it still occurs

re 1: The page is dynamically generated I believe, but I've compared the xpath of what's in my code and what's returning the exception, and they're the same, so that shouldn't be the case

hi

hhi

Well, if the xpath you’re using and the one that the exception returns are the same, I’m not surprised the element cannot be found.

Have you tested your xpath directly on the browser? And why are you using xpath anyway?

how do you mean

for line on

e

I got the xpath from ChroPath. I had this issue previously, and I just used JS scripts to do what I wanted, using the same xpath, so I don't think that's the issue

not sure how to use xpath directly

Does anyone know if there are any plans to create app testing based solutions as a selenium project (other than appium)?

Hi, I'm using Pycharm to automate my application. Issue is, when the browser is out of focus or minimized, the execution fails on IE. The same will execute seamlessly in Chrome. Could someone provide me a solution for this issue ?

Hi guys I am playing around with docker. Is there selenium docker channel ?

docker-selenium

brianbryo-sl: you can ask your questions here, the docker-selenium channel is only for coordination and notifications

besides, the chats there do not get mirrored to IRC

Anyone know what my problem is?

is there a reason to use such a complex xpath?

I'm going to iterate over the articles
