Xpath is present on the page but data in that xpath loads a second later, due to which my getText();-CodePudding

I can use thread.sleep(); but my boss doesn't want me to do that, if i use wait webDriverWait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated it is not working as well because the xpath is present, it is just the data(Text) that appears in sometime.

CodePudding user response：

For that kind of situation apply Explicit wait such that the attribute of the tag is updated with some value.

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfAllElementsLocatedBy(By.xpath("xpath/tag[contains(@Unit,'Abc')]")));

If you know what text will be presented then you can use textToBePresentInElementLocated method. Let's see below example,

HTML#1:

  <input class="google"> Text </input>

Wait till text presents if you know the expected text

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.textToBePresentInElementLocated(By.xpath("//input[@class='google']"), "Text"));

If that value (abc) resides in an attribute then you can use below approach.

HTML#2:

  <input class="google" value="Text" >

Wait till attribute have some value

WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@class='google']"));
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.attributeToBeNotEmpty(element, "value"));

/** Code to read properties file **/

String inputData = readProperties.getProperty("Data").trim();
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//input[@class='" inputData "']"));
        wait.until(ExpectedConditions.attributeToBeNotEmpty(element, "value"));
