Hello, when automation opens a different page but with the same flow, the elements of this new page are not recognizing me, what can I do?

Automation starts well, passes 14 steps correctly, but upon reaching step 15, which consists of identifying a magnifying glass to select the value of a text cap found in a new window, automation stops and error comes out. This new window opens when step 14 is executed correctly. Attached screenshot …

@acuadros For a test, after the “maximizeWindow()” statement, put in a LONG delay, like delay(10). If the image is clicked, then your concern is a timing issue and you can play with a smaller “delay” or, even better, insert one of the “wait” statements, like waitForElementClickable().

Done, I will apply those recommendations, but the error is that it does not recognize the field after opening another window other than the initial one.

@acuadros Is there any text on the new page that you can verify, verifyTextPresent(“text”, false)? I also see the “java.lang.IllegalArgumentException” message. Maybe @Brandon_Hein can help you with that?

A couple of things: 1.) If you don’t want to deal with maximizing the window every time in the script, it’s much easier to handle it with a desired capability: Open Project > Settings > Desired Capabilities > WebUI > Chrome, click the Add button, and set: Name = args Type = List Value = start-ma…

[image] acuadros: I don’t have access to HTML Sure you do. Right click on the element you are trying to click, and click “Inspect”.

You may have to select Inspect twice. The first time the code window shows, the second time the code window should zoom right to your selected Element. Also, with the verifyTextPresent, you do not need to use Regular Expression, so you can set the Boolean to “false”, rather than “true”. And, once…

@Brandon_Hein look, this part of the html works? at least that is the field that does not want to recognize me on the new window. @helpdesk I already changed the boolean value to “false” and it didn’t work either. [5]

Yes, exactly. Now, try testing an xpath for this element in your inspector: 1.) In your inspector, open the “Console” tab: [image] 2.) Type the following into the console: $x("//label[@for='serviceid']/img") and see what comes back.
