  • I need to click on an element which is inside the div tag. I tried using the xpath which when used detects the element both in the console and in the Katalon ide.
  • But when the script is run, it doesn't detect the element as the path given doesn't exactly point to the cancel icon I need to click.
  • I have attached a screenshot highlighting the element and its attribute. enter image description here

  • can't you target by the close class?

  • @Adelin It doesn't catch the close icon even if I give that as the attribute. Gave all the types of attributes. Still it can't perform any actions on that icon Feb 16, 2018 at 13:22
  • What's the exact code you used, for both the xpath and the close class?

  • @FindBy(css = "div.close") WebElement CloseButton; WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver,30); wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOf(CloseButton)); Actions action = new Actions(driver); action.moveToElement(CloseButton).build().perform(); CloseButton.click(); Feb 16, 2018 at 14:09

     @FindBy(xpath = "//*[@class='prompt']/..")
     WebElement choiceHeader;
     WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver,30);
     wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOf(choiceHeader));
     Integer parentWidth = choiceHeader.getSize().width;
     Actions ac = new Actions(driver);
    ac.moveToElement(choiceHeader, parentWidth-13, 13).click().build().perform();
  • This does find the element and then scroll to the position and click on the element which was highlighted in the screenshot.

You can try this:

@FindBy(css = "#demo_page1 .close")
WebElement CloseButton;
PageFactory.initElements(driver, this);
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver,30); 
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(CloseButton));
Actions action = new Actions(driver);
Thread.sleep(3000);
action.moveToElement(CloseButton).build().perform();
CloseButton.click();
