I have been using a code since long time , but recently there is a new banner up which is hiding the element that I am trying to click.
Attaching the snapshot of error. The only help I need is I need to click the hidden element( if the browser window is maximized the element is visible).

  • Welcome to Stack Overflow! You'll be more likely to get help if you were to edit your question to include the problematic code, as well as the section of html that changed, and he attempt that you've made to solve the issue on your own. (See "How to Ask" as well as how to create a Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example.)

If what you have said is true then you can use the following to maximize the window before clicking:



driver.Window.Maximize


Other options include:



1) Removing the banner
2) Scrolling the element into view



Can't write anything decent for those last two as your code is an image and I don't have a full URL to test with. You also haven't included the relevant HTML.

    The "div.container-fluid" element is blocking the button you are trying to click.
    You could try some of the following (as being shown here Element MyElement is not clickable at point (x, y)... Other element would receive the click):




    1. prolong the wait before the click

    2. use javascript executor
