Question

I am using Page factory model in selenium to initialise the web elements. I have wait operations in my code, while passing the web element to my wait operations, it throws "ClassCastException". I am not able to find solution, any leads will be great. Please suggest me some ways to cast the Page factory' object to WebElement' object.

@FindBy(how = How.XPATH, using = "//*[@id='menu-posts']/div[3]/div/ul/li[3]/a") public WebElement categories;

    public void menus() {
            try {
                loginTest();
                menuPosts.click();
                waitClick((WebElement) categories);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            } finally {
                driver.quit();
            }
        }
    public void waitClick(WebElement element) {
        WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 20);
        wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated((By) element));
        element.click();
    }

当变量categories已经是WebElement时，您正在将其变为WebElement。

更改此行

waitClick((WebElement) categories);

到这个

waitClick(categories);

它应该摆脱异常。

您将遇到的另一个问题是，waitClick()函数正在向WebElement投放By。你不需要那里的演员阵容。更好的是，您应该在单击之前等待元素可点击。我会像下面一样重写它。

public void waitClick(WebElement element)
{
    new WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(element)).click();
}

此外，Selenium的创造者，Simon Stewart，recommends not using Page Factory。我会将定位器存储在类的顶部，然后根据需要使用它们。我会重写整个事情如下。

public By categoriesLocator = By.xpath("//*[@id='menu-posts']/div[3]/div/ul/li[3]/a");

public void menus()
{
    try
    {
        loginTest();
        menuPosts.click(); // why aren't you using waitClick() here?
        waitClick(categoriesLocator);
    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    finally
    {
        driver.quit();
    }
}

public void waitClick(By locator)
{
    new WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(locator)).click();
}
