Someone said to me that I need to convert my code below to while or for loops.
driver.switch_to_window(driver.window_handles[1])
def edit_button(max_sec=10):
try:
WebDriverWait(driver, 1).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable(
(By.XPATH, "//button[contains(text(),'Edit')]")))
print("detected")
except:
driver.refresh()
max_sec -= 1
print(max_sec)
if max_sec == 0:
driver.close()
driver.switch_to_window(driver.window_handles[0])
print("not detected")
edit_button(max_sec)
edit_button()
The code above means that if edit button is not detected, then refresh until it appears for maximum of 10 seconds.
I tried to convert it to while loops, but it shows EXCEPTION ERROR. because this is not detected:
WebDriverWait(driver, 1).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable(
(By.XPATH, "//button[contains(text(),'Edit')]")))
Here is my while loop:
max_sec = 10
while not WebDriverWait(driver, 1).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//button[contains(text(),'Edit')]"))):
driver.refresh()
max_sec -= 1
print(max_sec)
if max_sec == 0:
driver.close()
driver.switch_to_window(driver.window_handles[0])
sys.exit()
print("success")
How to make something like this:
while element is exception:
Thanks sorry I am new to Python.
You could change loop condition and catch exception normally with try/except inside loop.
Here is the example:
seconds_left = 10
while seconds_left != 0:
try:
WebDriverWait(driver, 1).until(
EC.element_to_be_clickable(
(By.XPATH, "//button[contains(text(),'Edit')]"),
),
)
break
except:
seconds_left -= 1
driver.refresh()
if seconds_left == 0:
driver.close()
driver.switch_to_window(driver.window_handles[0])
sys.exit()
print("success")
Hi I'm working on an Instagram bot, I want to put this part of the code into a constantly repeating loop.
driver.find_element_by_xpath("/html/body/div[5]/div[1]/div/div/a")\
.click()
pyautogui.click(x=1063,y=748)
sleep(3)
pyautogui.click(x=1154, y=855)
sleep(3)
pyautogui.write("Woaw lookls like amazing.^^")
sleep(3)
pyautogui.press("enter")
sleep(4)
If you want it to loop indefinitely then you can use.
i = 1
while i < 10:
driver.find_element_by_xpath("/html/body/div[5]/div[1]/div/div/a")\
.click()
pyautogui.click(x=1063,y=748)
sleep(3)
pyautogui.click(x=1154, y=855)
sleep(3)
pyautogui.write("Woaw lookls like amazing.^^")
sleep(3)
pyautogui.press("enter")
sleep(4)
Though I would recommend only looping through this a set number of times and then re-running it if you need to.
If he insists on indefinitely then go:
i = False
while i != True:
This will create an infinate loop until
i = True

process_records()
I have also tried:
self.process_records()
This whole code-block seems to be inside a class. So you should be using self.process_records() to call the function.
The process_records method expects a few positional arguments (apart from self) - you'll probably need to pass those to the function too.
I want to know if there is any way to log the number of times my page has refreshed in command prompt when running.
want it to tell me the number of times it has refreshed. Refresh is located between while true: and continue. thanks

It has been a showstopper for my work. Any help is appreciated.Thanks
You could try substituting .click() with .send_keys("\n"), which is equivalent to "Pressing enter while focusing on an element".
So this:
driver.find_element_by_link_text('PurchaseOrder').click()
would become this:
driver.find_element_by_link_text('PurchaseOrder').send_keys("\n")
In case this is still a recurring problem for anyone else, if you have confirmed your code is correct (you've reviewed it for errors etc.) and you still find the find_element_by_...('text').click() function not working properly it is often due to your code continuing to run before the JavaScript can update the page.
A simple solution is to import time then insert the below code immediately after any click() methods:
time.sleep(2)
The duration of the sleep timer can be whatever you choose. In my case I used 2 seconds. Hopefully that helps.
I had this problem as well. Sometimes, for whatever reason webdriver didn't click the button. It was able to find the button (it didn't throw a NoSuchElementException and a WebDriverWait didn't help).
The problem with clicking the button twice was that if the first click succeed, the second one would fail (or click the submit button on the next page if it found a match!). My first attempt was to put the second click in a try/except block - this is how I found out about it clicking submit on the next page. XD And it also really slowed down my test when it couldn't find the second button.
I found some good insights at Selenium 2.0b3 IE WebDriver, Click not firing. Basically, I click on a parent element first, which seemingly does nothing. Then I click on the submit button.
If the element you click() is an url. I found that taking the href properties and using driver.get(elem.get_attribute('href')) being the cleanest.
I would try other element finders like className, cssSelector or something. xPath sometimes doesnt provide errors if the element isn't found.
So first start by finding out if the element is really found by webdriver.
You can also try to click or use the other commands two times in a row. This already solved some of such issues.
I had the same issue where a two-part drop down menu selection would not generate what it's supposed to generate with proper selections. It worked when I did imported time and use time.sleep(2) between the two "click"s. (For reference I used find_element_by_xpath to find an modify the options.)
I ran into the above issue where the same .click() is working in all browsers(IE, Chrome and Firefox) but not working for Safari. So I tried all the possible solutions from this post and none of them worked and it doesn't even throw error.
I tried below by substituting .click() with .submit(), which is an equivalent method and it worked not only for Safari but also for all other browsers.
So this:
driver.find_element_by_id('login_btn').click()
Replaced as:
driver.find_element_by_id('login_btn').submit()
If above fails to work on other browsers due to any reason keep .submit() in try and except. If it fails .click() will be triggered and executed.
Hope this helps if none of the other solutions works.
For those, click() doesn't work, use submit() if that button element(clickable element) is in a form element. Basically, in order to submit a form, we need to use submit(), click() will not work in some cases.
I foolishly did elem.click with the parentheses: elem.click().
