How to Resolve Selenium's ElementNotInteractableException?

Resolving ElementNotInteractableException in Selenium WebDriver

ElementNotInteractableException occurs when an element on the web page is present but cannot be interacted with. This can be caused by various reasons.

Reasons and Solutions:

• Temporary Overlay:

  • Use WebDriverWait with ExpectedConditions.invisibilityOfElementLocated to wait for the overlay to disappear before interacting with the element.
  • Alternatively, use ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable to wait for the element to become clickable.

• Permanent Overlay:

  • Cast the WebDriver instance as JavascriptExecutor and use executeScript to perform the click operation:

  WebElement ele = driver.findElement(By.xpath("element_xpath"));
  JavascriptExecutor executor = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
  executor.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", ele);
