How can I click the button and move to next page using selenium?-CodePudding

I am not able to click the button using selenium and move to the next page. I have tried the following commands:

driver.find_element_by_xpath(".//div[text()='Production']").click() 
driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="root"]/div/[1]/div/div/div[2]/button[2]').click

I have added a screenshot of the html.

What am I doing wrong?

I guess the pagination button is on the bottom of the page, out of the visible screen. If so, to click it you first have to scroll the page down, bring that element into the view and only then click it.
Please try this:

pager = wait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//div[text()='Production']")))
driver.execute_script("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight);")
time.sleep(0.5)
actions.move_to_element(pager).perform()
time.sleep(0.5)
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[text()='Production']").click()

To click on the element with text as Production you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

Using css_selector:

driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, "button.nav-option.nav-option--main > div.section-title").click()

Using xpath:

driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//button[@class='nav-option nav-option--main']/div[@class='section-title']//div[text()='Production']").click()

Ideally to click on the element you need to induce WebDriverWait for the element_to_be_clickable() and you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

Using CSS_SELECTOR:

WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "button.nav-option.nav-option--main > div.section-title"))).click()

Using XPATH:

WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//button[@class='nav-option nav-option--main']/div[@class='section-title']//div[text()='Production']"))).click()

Note: You have to add the following imports :

from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
