Selenium headless mode few tests failing with NoSuchElementException using AjaxElementLocatorFactory

Time:11-06

I have tests that passing by if i run it none headless and if headless mode are on which is running my tests under the boot then some tests are failing with an exception that element cannot be located. What to do in such scenarios

Also does it matter how big is a window size at all? currently i have the following, but i guess if they passing wish such window size none headless why would some fail headless

@BeforeEach
public void setUp() {
    WebDriverManager.chromedriver().setup();
    driver = new ChromeDriver(new ChromeOptions()
            .addArguments("start-maximized")
            .addArguments("--disable-popup-blocking")
            .addArguments("--headless"));
    driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(15, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
    loginToEnvironment();
}

In headless mode some element is not located

Elements initialisation done by PageFactory.init

public class BasePage {

    public WebDriver driver;
    protected Wait wait;

    public BasePage(WebDriver driver) {
        initializePage(driver);
        this.wait = new Wait(driver);
    }

    final protected void initializePage(WebDriver driver) {
        this.driver = driver;
        PageFactory.initElements(new AjaxElementLocatorFactory(driver, 20), this);
    }
}

SignUp test

@Test
    public void shouldSignUpSuccessfully() {
        signUpModal.signUp((SignUp) credentials)
                .getCountryModalInstance()
                .chooseCountry(((SignUp) credentials).getCountry())
                .clickOnSaveButton();
        assertTrue(homePage.getMyAccountName().getText().isEmpty());
    }

CodePudding user response:

for this css selector :

.user-name

Please check in the dev tools (Google chrome) if we have unique entry in HTML DOM or not.

css that you should check :

.user-name

Steps to check:

Press F12 in Chrome -> go to element section -> do a CTRL F -> then paste the css and see, if your desired element is getting highlighted with 1/1 matching node.

If we have 1/1 matching node, Please make sure that :

  1. This web element is not under an iframe.
  2. This web element is not under a shadow root.
  3. You should not be on the new tab/windows launched by selenium.

If it falls under any category mentioned above, You would have to handle that particular scenario.

AjaxElementLocatorFactory

AjaxElementLocatorFactory is a lazy load concept in Page Factory pattern to identify WebElements only when they are used in any operation i.e. a timeOut for a WebElement can be assigned to the Object page class with the help of AjaxElementLocatorFactory.

So ideally you need to remove the implicitlyWait as:

Warning: Do not mix implicit and explicit waits. Doing so can cause unpredictable wait times. For example, setting an implicit wait of 10 seconds and an explicit wait of 15 seconds could cause a timeout to occur after 20 seconds.


NoSuchElementException indicates element wasn't located.

To locate the element you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

  • Using css_selector:

    div.header-menu-item > div.header-menu-name span.user-name
    
  • Using xpath:

    //div[@class='header-menu-item']/div[@class='header-menu-item']//span[@class='user-name']
