Im trying to automate a page and i wish to click the play button of a video. the video dosent has an Id so im using xPath.
I have more than 1 movie and i noticed that in the second movie the xPath of the overlay button changes (in result selenium cant find the button).
i looked a bit and found out it is wrapped with Videogular (video player).
My question is how to click that overlay play button. Im assuming it needs to be with a javascript execute command.
This is what i tried and didnt work :
js .executeScript("document.getElementByxPath(\"//*[@id=\"cdk-accordion-
child-5\"]/div/app-sensors-video/app-cognata-video/vg-player/vg-overlay-play/div\").play()");
Which gave me nullpointerexception
public class TestClass {
private WebDriver driver;
private String baseUrl;
LoginPageFactory loginPage;
DashboardPageFactory dashboard;
ViewSummaryPageFactory viewSummary;
SimulationAnalysisPageFactory simulationAnalysis;
JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
@BeforeClass
public void setup() {
driver = new ChromeDriver();
baseUrl = "*****";
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
driver.manage().window().maximize();
driver.get(baseUrl);
loginPage = new LoginPageFactory(driver);
dashboard = new DashboardPageFactory(driver);
viewSummary = new ViewSummaryPageFactory(driver);
simulationAnalysis = new SimulationAnalysisPageFactory(driver);
}
@Test
public void test() throws Exception {
loginPage = new LoginPageFactory(driver);
loginPage.insertUserName("foresight");
loginPage.insertPassword("fs2018");
loginPage.clickSubmit();
int size = dashboard.listSize();
for (int i=2; i<size; i++) {
WebElement currentScenario = dashboard.createScenariosList(i);
currentScenario.click();
Thread.sleep(2000);
dashboard.clickSummary();
viewSummary.clickSimulationAnalysisPage();
Thread.sleep(5000);
js.executeScript("document.getElementByxPath(\"//*[@id=\"cdk-accordion-child-5\"]/div/app-sensors-video/app-cognata-video/vg-player/vg-overlay-play/div\").play()");
String percentage = "0";
while (percentage != "100%") {
WebElement elm = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id=\"cdk-accordion-child-0\"]/div/app-sensors-video/app-cognata-video/vg-player/vg-scrub-bar/div"));
percentage = (String) elm.getAttribute("aria-valuenow");
if (percentage.equals("100%")) {
break;
}
}
if (i != size) {
dashboard.clickDashboardTab();
}
else {
System.out.println("Test Completed");
}
}
}
}
The Error :
