unable to locate the element in selenium WebDriver using C#

Question

how to find element for this below html tag ?

I am getting

exception: no such element: Unable to locate element:

{"method":"xpath","selector":"//*[@id='divMain']/div/app-train-list/div[2]/app-modify-search/p-confirmdialog/div/div/div[3]/html/body/app-root/app-home/div[3]/div/app-train-list/div[2]/app-modify-search/p-confirmdialog/div/div/div[3]/button"}

IWebElement berthOK = driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//*[@id='divMain']/div/app-train-list/div[2]/app-modify-search/p-confirmdialog/div/div/div[3]/html/body/app-root/app-home/div[3]/div/app-train-list/div[2]/app-modify-search/p-confirmdialog/div/div/div[3]/button"));
if (berthOK.Displayed)  //*[@id='divMain']/div/app-train-list/div[2]/app-modify-search/p-confirmdialog/div/div/div[3]
berthOK.Click();

That xpath looks absolute, can you share the HTML for that button ? or if URL is there that'd be help too. — cruisepandey, Jun 25 '21 at 14:34
I have commented the Relative Xpath aswel below that absolute path. html is ```

url is https://www.irctc.co.in/nget/booking/train-list, in that pop-up message box comes only if we select Lower berth — Aishwarya Mohan, Jun 25 '21 at 15:07
When I select the lower berth, I do not see any pop-message. — cruisepandey, Jun 25 '21 at 17:23

I guess it's OK button that you wanna click.

IWebElement berthOK = driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//span[text()='OK']/.."));
if(berthOK.Displayed)
berthOK.Click();

or for more reliability make sure to use WebDriverWait :

new WebDriverWait(driver, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(3)).Until(ExpectedConditions.ElementToBeClickable(By.XPath("//span[text()='OK']/.."))).Click();

no again getting the same error, unable to find element – Aishwarya Mohan Jun 25 '21 at 15:05
ExpectedConditions is obsolete so again getting errors – Aishwarya Mohan Jun 25 '21 at 15:14
Is it also or irctc ? if yes then let me know, where is it ? – cruisepandey Jun 25 '21 at 17:24
yes, it is also irctc.... once you select the quota as senior citizen/ lower berth, that pop up message comes and click on search...again inside that pop up displays – Aishwarya Mohan Jun 25 '21 at 17:50
I could find that `OK` button. what is the error when you use this code `new WebDriverWait(driver, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(3)).Until(ExpectedConditions.ElementToBeClickable(By.XPath("//span[text()='OK']/.."))).Click();` - ExpectedConditions is not obsolete – cruisepandey Jun 26 '21 at 09:00
