Check whether element is clickable in selenium

Question

I\'m able to verify whether or not an element exists and whether or not it is displayed, but can\'t seem to find a way to see whether it is \'clickable\' (Not talking about

Answer 1

You can wait for the element to be clickable:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("http://somedomain")

element = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(
    EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.ID, "myDynamicElement"))
)

Or, you can follow the EAFP principle and catch an exception being raised by click():

from selenium.common.exceptions import WebDriverException

try:
    element.click()
except WebDriverException:
    print "Element is not clickable"
