unknown error: Element is not clickable at point

[ra cras]

Hi,

In Chrome, when I click in a button, appear thi error

org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: unknown error: Element is notclickable at point
(1386, 705). Other element would receive the click: <div class=
"modal-overlay" style="top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 1920px; height: 979px;
position: fixed; background-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); z-index: 9999; opacity:
0.11128321111361936; background-position: initial initial;
background-repeat: initial initial;"></div>

how can I solve?

Hi,

It seems to me is like you are unable to perform click action in chrome.

I would recommend to make a method just to click the element.
Pass the WebElement path as an argument to that method.
get the location of that element, scroll down to that element and then
click that element.

I found this method helpful:

void clickWebElement(WebElement weElement, WebDriver wdDriver) {

// Scroll the browser to the element's Y position
((JavascriptExecutor) wdDriver).executeScript("window.scrollTo(0,"
+ weElement.getLocation().y + ")");
// Click the element
iAttempts = 0;
while (iAttempts < 5) {
try {
weElement.click();
break;
} catch (Exception e) {
}
iAttempts++;
}

}

Use this method as:

WebElement clickElement = driver.findElement(By.yourLocator(" "));

// call method
clickWebElement(clickElement, driver);

PS: The above has been coded using java.
