python selenium: unable to locate element, svg-icon button inside shadow-root-CodePudding

I'm new in selenium and trying to click icon button. I've used find_element_by_xpath, class_name, or by_id but it always returned an error message: Message: no such element: Unable to locate element. I was assuming that it was because of shadow-root

I've tried with this code:

driver.find_element_by_class_name('mdc-icon-button mdc-ripple-surface sc-mi-notification-bell').click()

or something like:

driver.implicitly_wait(10)
element = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//*[@id='mw']/ui-view/app-root/mi-app-chrome//div/div[1]/mw-mi-header/div/div/mi-notification-bell")
element.click()

But nothing's successful

Thanks in advance

CodePudding user response：

You have to access svg in a different way than the regular locators. This should work, assuming that there is only one svg-icon (as provided in the query)

driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//*[name()='svg-icon']")

Here is the selection snapshot: DOM Snapshot

Another extended locator (if there are more than one svg-icons) narrowed down to finding the bell class first and then traversing to the svg-icon through it.

driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//*[contains(@class, 'notification-bell')]//*[name()='svg-icon']")

For shadow root (as mentioned in the later comment):

shadow = driver.execute_script('return document.querySelector("your_shadow_element").shadowRoot')
shadow.find_element(By.XPATH, "//*[name()='svg-icon']")

Replace your-shadow_element with the element attribute (id, class, etc)
