Seleniumbase TimeoutException only when using chromium from a script

Question

I have a url login script that was working fine for a few days but then quit, that used the chromium webdriver

driver = webdriver.Chrome('/snap/bin/chromium.chromedriver', options=option)

I can access the URL using Firefox or Chromium without my script (just normal). Or Firefox in a script. But using Chromium in a script, it clicks the login button and just hangs, that eventually leads to a timeout

selenium.common.exceptions.TimeoutException: Message:

If I open a new tab and try to login without the script but manually, it still hangs. A login is impossible (on my target site) within a launched browser from selenium, only.

button I am accessing

How do I use/unblock the use of this login button in chromium in a script?

Answer 1

Try below code:

with contains

wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 30)
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//button[contains(text(), 'Log in')]"))).click()

Class Name

wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 30)
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//button[@class='btn-login btn-shadow']"))).click()

Note : please add below imports to your solution

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

Working Solution:

driver.get(" your url ")
wait = WebDriverWait(driver,30)
element = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//button[@id='login-fake-btn']")))
print element.text
element.click()

wait = WebDriverWait(driver,30)
element = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[@id='email']"))).send_keys("Test")
wait = WebDriverWait(driver,30)
element = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//input[@id='password']"))).send_keys("Test")
element1 = wait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//div[@id='login-overlay']//div//form//button")))
element1.click()

output :
