Error Handling Selenium Python Automation

Time:08-10

I am creating an automation script with Selenium Python to be able to create user accounts on a website my company uses. The program pulls all the users information from active directory and passes the information through selenium to create the account. If a duplicate account is created the website throws an error. When it does this I am wanting selenium to recognize the error and add a number to the end of the username if it does not throw an error I want it to ignore and continue. I am trying to do this with a IF ELSE statement. The problem I am running in to is the HTML element that holds the error is always visible with only a small change in the HTML when the error is initialized. I tried writing the XPATH to catch the change but keep getting a TimeoutException error. I have added all of the script below along with both HTML elements showing before the error is thrown and after the error is thrown. If you have any suggestions on a better way to handle the error that will be greatly appreciated as well.

HTML of Error before being thrown

<div  ng-show="hasErrors">
        <button  ng-click="clearErrors()"></button>
        <p>Sorry, something unexpected happened. Please try again.</p>
        <ul >
            <!-- ngRepeat: error in errorMessages -->
        </ul>
    </div>

HTML of Error after being thrown

<div  ng-show="hasErrors">
        <button  ng-click="clearErrors()"></button>
        <p>Sorry, something unexpected happened. Please try again.</p>
        <ul >
            <!-- ngRepeat: error in errorMessages --><li ng-repeat="error in errorMessages" >Code: 102000890</li><!-- end ngRepeat: error in errorMessages --><li ng-repeat="error in errorMessages" >FaultCode: InvalidData</li><!-- end ngRepeat: error in errorMessages --><li ng-repeat="error in errorMessages" >Error: 102000890 - Login Id is already in use. Please create a different login Id.</li><!-- end ngRepeat: error in errorMessages --><li ng-repeat="error in errorMessages" >Details: </li><!-- end ngRepeat: error in errorMessages -->
        </ul>
    </div>

CodePudding user response:

Instead of using presence_of_element_located expected condition you can use presence_of_all_elements_located so in case of no match found it will just return you an empty list interpreted by Python as a Boolean false. Also, seems you do not need to use WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, '//*[@class= "error-section ng-hide" and @id="data"]/div[1]'))) in the else part since you already checked the existence of the error notification.
So, your code could be as following:

if WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.presence_of_all_elements_located((By.XPATH, '//div[@class= "error-section"]//p[contains(.,"Sorry, something unexpected happened. Please try again.")]'))):
    WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, '//*[@id="data"]/div[3]/table/tbody[1]/tr/td[1]/ng-form/fieldset[1]/input'))).send_keys("1")
    
else:
    # Do what you need to do here

Also, most locators you are using here, like //input[@class='ng-pristine ng-untouched ng-invalid ng-invalid-required ng-valid-maxlength' and @name='lastName'] are bad and should be improved.

CodePudding user response:

To handle the probable error message you can wrapup the click on the Close button within a try-except{} block inducing WebDriverWait for the element_to_be_clickable() and you can use either of the following locator strategies:

  • Using CSS_SELECTOR:

    try:
      WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "button.close[ng-click^='clearErrors']"))).click()
      print("Closed error message")
    except TimeoutException:
      print("No error message")
    
  • Using XPATH:

    try:
      WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//button[@class='close' and starts-with(@ng-click, 'clearErrors')]"))).click()
      print("Closed error message")
    except TimeoutException:
      print("No error message")
