I am using Selenium 3.141 with SafariDriver included with Safari 13.0.1 (14608.2.11.1.11).
I have problems with interacting with elements, in this case clinking on a button.
1) Create a new SafariDriver
2) Navigate to a page with a button element
3) Find the button element
4) Click on the button element
RESULT: The click is not performed on the button element but any element below the button element.
This is not working from the recent update to safari 13.0.1.
I also am running into this bug.
As a workaround, I am now using driver.executeScript to simulate the click in javascript.
Although this works, it is obviously not the ideal solution.
I am also experiencing this issue using same steps as above. I've upgraded to 13.0.2; however, it did not resolve issue.
I run into the same issue today so I was wondering whether you have found a solid solution yet appart from @rhpijnacker's solution to fix it.
It also seems to be broken for .getText( ).
Hey team, I run into the same situation some days ago. And some folks too.
I find this https://github.com/webdriverio/webdriverio/issues/4787
where it takes to https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202589but no action are taken.
Please, where can I track the issue that will fix this?, thanks!!
I am amazed to report that the issue has been fixed in "less than 2 years" in Big Sur release.
I upgraded Mac OS to Big Sur and safari to version 15, click is still not working for me. I am executing javascript for click() action.
i am using Big Sur, OS version 14.1 and the click with send keys / click(), jse all these 3 doesnt work . did anyone find a solution to this ?
I also experience the same issue on macOS Monterey 12.2.1, Safari 15.3. Selenium clicks are not performing any actions. Only JS clicks are working.
I also tried running it on Mac Ventura 13.4 with Safari 16.5 and selenium-webdriver 4.8.2, but the click action doesn't work. This issue still persists.
Is there any updates on this? I am also facing this issue for my Macbook Air M2 (Mac Ventura 13.4) with Safari 16.5.
Same here with:
Sonoma 14.3.1M3 ProSafari 17.3.1Selenium 4.18.0Trying to check/uncheck any of the checkboxes in this public test page (https://the-internet.herokuapp.com/checkboxes), made exactly for this kind of dummy selenium tests, doesn't work. It works on all browsers but Safari.
The only things working in Safari is clicking with js, which is a horrible workaround:
JavascriptExecutor executor = (JavascriptExecutor) webDriver;
executor.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", firstCheckbox);
