As the subject reads, webdriver.ActionChains(driver).send_keys(Keys.ESCAPE).perform() is not working in Firefox.   This issue only occurs in AppD. Support and I cannot reproduce the issue locally.    Support has created  SYNTH-6266. I don't have any hope it will be fixed in 2020.   I am asking the community to provide me a different method to Esc out of a pop-up without knowing any information about the pop-up like XPATH, ID, Name, etc.   The pop-up I am using this for are Pendo pop-ups. Unfortunately, the environment that has this pop-up is not accessible from the Cloud for me to provide you an example. ... View more

I have a Python/Selenium script that has 30+ of the following. I've included two samples.   try: xpathName = "//*[@id='locationDeductableAmount']" xpathValue = "1000" wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10) element = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "" + xpathName + ""))) element.click() dropdown_element = wait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "" + xpathName + ""))) select = Select(dropdown_element) select.select_by_visible_text(xpathValue) except: stop = time.time() print("Step " + step + ": Response Time (sec) is " + str(stop - start)) raise Exception ("WARNING: Could not find " + xpathName + " id") print("--------") try: xpathName = "//*[@id='buildingSquareFootagerest']" xpathValue = "3000" wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10) element = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "" + xpathName + ""))) element.click() element = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "" + xpathName + ""))) element.clear() element = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "" + xpathName + ""))) element.send_keys(xpathValue) except: stop = time.time() print("Step " + step + ": Response Time (sec) is " + str(stop - start)) raise Exception ("WARNING: Could not find " + xpathName + " id") print("--------") The website in question only works in IE.   Sometimes my script completes without any issues and other times it errors with "selenium.common.exceptions.StaleElementReferenceException: Message: Element is no longer valid".   This error which is random happens at different areas of the script.   I've tried using a hard pause of 1 or 2 seconds. There are times it works and other times it fails.   Can anyone please tell me what I need to update to make this work?   I've update the post to include the exception messages   Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\Users\uswarv41\Box Sync\Documents\GitHub\appd-selenium-scripts\CML_BIE_PROD_NB_Restaurant_Synthetic_Script.py", line 375, in <module> element.click() File "C:\Users\uswarv41\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\webelement.py", line 80, in click self._execute(Command.CLICK_ELEMENT) File "C:\Users\uswarv41\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\webelement.py", line 633, in _execute return self._parent.execute(command, params) File "C:\Users\uswarv41\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\webdriver.py", line 321, in execute self.error_handler.check_response(response) File "C:\Users\uswarv41\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\errorhandler.py", line 242, in check_response raise exception_class(message, screen, stacktrace) selenium.common.exceptions.StaleElementReferenceException: Message: Element is no longer valid During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\Users\uswarv41\.vscode\extensions\ms-python.python-2018.12.1\pythonFiles\ptvsd_launcher.py", line 45, in <module> main(ptvsdArgs) File "c:\Users\uswarv41\.vscode\extensions\ms-python.python-2018.12.1\pythonFiles\lib\python\ptvsd\__main__.py", line 265, in main wait=args.wait) File "c:\Users\uswarv41\.vscode\extensions\ms-python.python-2018.12.1\pythonFiles\lib\python\ptvsd\__main__.py", line 256, in handle_argse_args run_main(addr, name, kind, *extra, **kwargs) File "c:\Users\uswarv41\.vscode\extensions\ms-python.python-2018.12.1\pythonFiles\lib\python\ptvsd\_local.py", line 52, in run_main runner(addr, name, kind == 'module', *extra, **kwargs) File "c:\Users\uswarv41\.vscode\extensions\ms-python.python-2018.12.1\pythonFiles\lib\python\ptvsd\runner.py", line 32, in run set_trace=False) File "c:\Users\uswarv41\.vscode\extensions\ms-python.python-2018.12.1\pythonFiles\lib\python\ptvsd\_vendored\pydevd\pydevd.py", line 1283, in run return self._exec(is_module, entry_point_fn, module_name, file, globals, locals) File "c:\Users\uswarv41\.vscode\extensions\ms-python.python-2018.12.1\pythonFiles\lib\python\ptvsd\_vendored\pydevd\pydevd.py", line 1290, in _exec pydev_imports.execfile(file, globals, locals) # execute the script File "c:\Users\uswarv41\.vscode\extensions\ms-python.python-2018.12.1\pythonFiles\lib\python\ptvsd\_vendored\pydevd\_pydev_imps\_pydev_execfile.py", line 25, in execfile exec(compile(contents+"\n", file, 'exec'), glob, loc) File "c:\Users\uswarv41\Box Sync\Documents\GitHub\appd-selenium-scripts\CML_BIE_PROD_NB_Restaurant_Synthetic_Script.py", line 385, in <module> raise Exception ("WARNING: Could not find " + xpathName + " id") Exception: WARNING: Could not find //*[@id='locationDeductableAmount'] id PS C:\Users\uswarv41\Box Sync\Documents\GitHub\appd-selenium-scripts> ...

We have a synthetic job that runs through 15+ steps. Each step is a new vitual page. All the steps are under one URL.    The results of the job in AppD only shows one page. I need AppD to display each page on it's own.    How do I do this?   Thanks ... View more
