I try to interact with an input field with the following script:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
from selenium.common.exceptions import NoSuchElementException
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
from time import sleep
username = "****"
password = "****"
url = "https://www.wikifolio.com/dynamic/de/de/login/login?ReturnUrl=/de/de/home&_=1632037782306"
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r'\Users\Benjamin\Downloads\chromedriver_win32\chromedriver.exe')
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 20)
driver.get(url)
driver.find_element_by_name("Username").send_keys(username)
driver.find_element_by_name("Password").send_keys(password)
driver.find_element_by_css_selector("button").click()
driver.get("https://www.wikifolio.com/de/de/meine-wikifolios/trade/wf00wiking")
wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, ".c-disclaimer .js-disclaimer__abort, .c-disclaimer .js-disclaimer__change"))).click()
wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//a[@data-description='AKER CARB.CAPT.AS NK1']"))).click()
wait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//div[@id='trading-modal-root' and(contains(@style,'block'))]//select[@class='js-order-type-select order-type-selector']")))
select1 = Select(driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[@id='trading-modal-root' and(contains(@style,'block'))]//select[@class='js-order-type-select order-type-selector']"))
select1.select_by_value('quote')
#to select purchase or sale action:
select2 = Select(driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[@id='trading-modal-root' and(contains(@style,'block'))]//select[@class='js-order-type-buysell order-buysell-selector']"))
# select by value "buy"
select2.select_by_value('buy')
buttonnew = wait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "/html/body/div[3]/div[4]/div/div/div/div/div[2]/div[3]/div/div/div[2]/div[2]/input")))
newaction = ActionChains(driver)
newaction.move_to_element(buttonnew).send_keys(int(22)).perform()
The Script executes correct unless it comes to the last part:
buttonnew = wait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "/html/body/div[3]/div[4]/div/div/div/div/div[2]/div[3]/div/div/div[2]/div[2]/input")))
newaction = ActionChains(driver)
newaction.move_to_element(buttonnew).send_keys(int(22)).perform()
Here the execution stops.
I checked the XPATH with the browser. It is unique. I checked with Chrome via "examine" and then pressing >CRTL F<
Here is a screenshot, that Chrome DOES indeed find the locator and it seems to be unique:
That seems to indicate, that the XPATH is correct, and it is not a matter of "finding" the right XPATH but rather a matter of code execution or wrong programming.
Also i was wondering, if the Input Field is wrapped inside a Shadow DOM or any other form of hidden structure.
But if this was the case, why all the other field CAN be selected (like selecting from the dropdown) in the previous steps?
To let you check that correctly i would provide the full html of that panel (because it is a window that opens within that page):

.......
Now the question: do i need to adress one of the parent or ancestor elements (divs for example) BEFORE i can interact with the input field?
Also i was wondering what this part in the HTML is about:
<div class="authorization-request-panel" style="display: none;">
<div class="spinner-modal-wrapper">
<div class="spinner"></div>
</div>
</div>
This is written directly after the "modal-dialog" div in the HTML.
I also checked multiple threats here in Stackoverflow. All of the solutions lead to an incorecct XPATH Locator. But why the XPATH then uniquely points to the correct input field, when i insert this into the browser directly, like it is in the screenshot?
Can anyone help me with that issue?
Thanks a lot, i appreciate, Benjamin
CodePudding user response：
No, it isn't necessary to address one of the parent or ancestor elements before interacting with the input field (unless the element is inside a frame of frame-set). Could you please pass "22" as a string and not an integer?
# passing "22" as a string
newaction.move_to_element(buttonnew).send_keys(str(22)).perform()
CodePudding user response：
- Xpath is brittle in nature, try to use relative xpath rather than absolute xpath.
- Make sure to use
element_to_be_clickablewhen it is required. - You need to clear the input field first and then you can do
send_keys - Use
explicit waits. - Launch browser in full screen mode.
- Preference is
css selector, and least preferable choice is xpath.
