Debugging “Element is not clickable at point” error

Question

I see this only in Chrome.

The full error message reads:

\"org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: Element is not clickable at point (411, 675

Answer 1

I was facing the same problem with clj-webdriver (clojure port of Selenium). I just translated the previous solution to clojure for convenience. You can call this function before doing click or whatever to avoid that problem.

(defn scrollTo
  "Scrolls to the position of the given css selector if found"
  [q]
  (if (exists? q) 
    (let [ loc (location-once-visible q) jscript (str "window.scrollTo(" (:x loc) "," (:y loc) ")") ] 
      (execute-script jscript))))
