Error:The method elementToBeClickable(By) in the type ExpectedConditions is not applicable for the arguments (WebElement)

问题

I am novice to Selenium and trying to walk through some code. It uses Explicit Wait as below functions in Utils.java file.

public static void waitForElement(WebElement element){

     WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
     wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(element));

        }

When I compile it gives the error :-

The method elementToBeClickable(By) in the type ExpectedConditions is not applicable for the arguments (WebElement)

回答1:

It is very clear from the error message that the method ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable() can accept only the type By. you cannot directly pass a web element as a parameter to the method.

have a look at https://seleniumhq.github.io/selenium/docs/api/java/org/openqa/selenium/support/ui/ExpectedConditions.html to know the list of expectedconditions and their parameters.

回答2:

The method elementToBeClickable(By) in the type ExpectedConditions is not applicable for the arguments (WebElement)

It looks like you're using old version of selenium <= 2.37.0 where ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable accept only By object as a parameter.

But from selenium version >= 2.38.0 ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable accept By as well as WebElement object as parameter.

I would suggest you upgrade your selenium version to latest stable version 2.53.0 or >= 2.38.0 to get rid from this exception.
