while performing below operation i have use the driver close method but my browser is not closing instead of closing it is giving me below error

Question

I am using the selenium tool to automate the Flipkart web application. I am trying to click on the login button. I am getting the below error.

Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.ElementClickInterceptedException: element click intercepted: Element <a class="_3Ep39l" href="/account/login?ret=/">...</a> is not clickable at point (968, 27). Other element would receive the click: <div class="_2ISNhP _3AOFWO" tabindex="-1">...</div>

these is look like a link so i used these code

public static void main(String[] args) {

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\Users\\Sunit\\eclipse-workspace\\Selenium\\Drivers\\chromedriver.exe");

driver = new ChromeDriver();

driver.manage().window().maximize();

driver.get("https://www.edureka.co/");

driver.findElement(By.linkText("Login")).click(); 

driver.quit();

 So i wanted to be close the browser after click on login symbol. but it is giving me an error which i mentioned above. Could you guy take a look and provide your valuable comment and soultion here.

 

Answer 1

If waiting for element, sleep and other stuff like this are not working, try to click using JS, because probably something is overlaying this element.

Something like this:

WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.xpath(“xpath”));
JavascriptExecutor executor = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
executor.executeScript(“arguments[0].click();”, element);
