Nested exception while verifying element visible

Hello,

I am facing an issue while verifying an object using the verify element visible command. My scripts looks like this:

def ispresent = WebUI.verifyElementVisible(findTestObject(‘Object Repository/monthageingrepobyuser/export/exporttoexcel’), FailureHandling.OPTIONAL)

println(ispresent)

Export to excel object looks like this:

using object spy, I am able to capture this object.
But while running the script I am receiving the following error:

false

Eventhough its a warning, katalon still not identifying the object even if its existing.

Any hint on this?

Hello,

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks.

Can you please share your complete script - will be easier to tell once we see that

Unraveling what is going on here might prove quite difficult. But let’s at least try…

A CDATA section is an XML contrivance to allow inclusion of non-valid XML data in an otherwise valid XML context - typically, at least in an XHTML context, that means JavaScript code. And that’s exactly what is happening with your document: you can see it referenced in the text property of your object in your screen shot.

I can see the text property is deselected - did you try deleting it?
