Solution

  • To click on the element with text See more anyway you need to induce WebDriverWait for the element_to_be_clickable() which automatically scrolls the element within view and you can use the following locator strategy:

    • Using XPATH:

      WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//div[contains(., 'The rest of the results')]//span[contains(., 'See more anyway')]"))).click()
      
    • Or simply:

      WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//span[contains(., 'See more anyway')]"))).click()
      
    • Note: You have to add the following imports :

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