Winium is clicking on wrong element

[avian27]

I am new to winium and wanted some help. I tried to run a simple calculator automation test of adding 1 and 5. The automation id is 131 for 1 but when I am running the code it's clicking on '+'. Also I had to insert a sleep of 5 secs before calling the next function. When I did not insert the sleep it will simply go to next step without performing any operation. The same code is working on a different machine. I am not able to figure out what is the problem.

The automation ID your trying to match is not correct. Inspect the Calculator UI with "UISpy" and check whether the ID your checking is present or not?

[avian27]

The automation id which i am getting is the same when i used UISPY or Inspect.

Thanks, Avinash

Can u send a snapshot of ur code so that I can help in resolving..

[avian27]

Here is the code that I am using

package acedemo;

import java.net.MalformedURLException; import java.net.URL;

import org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.winium.DesktopOptions; import org.openqa.selenium.winium.WiniumDriver;

public class multiplerun {

public static void main(String[] args) throws MalformedURLException, InterruptedException { // TODO Auto-generated method stub DesktopOptions option1 = new DesktopOptions(); option1.setApplicationPath("C:\Windows\System32\calc.exe"); WiniumDriver driver1 = new WiniumDriver(new URL("http://localhost:9999 "),option1); Thread.sleep(7000); driver1.findElement(By.name("Calculator")).click(); driver1.findElement(By.id("138")).click(); Thread.sleep(10000); System.out.println("success");

}

}

The code starts the calculator exe but does not perform any clicking event and print success. The automation id used is for button 8. The code ideally should give an error when trying to click the specified element but instead, it moves on to next statement. The same code is running perfectly fine on another machine.

Also, we were involved in a POC for our automating our company product using winium. The product interacts with different executables and we were facing the issue while switching from 1 app to other if both the app launches over each other(i.e they overlap on each other). Sometimes it switches perfectly fine while some time it is unable to switch and then gives an error element not found. It will be awesome if u can suggest something regarding to this switching issue.

Thanks, Avinash.

Display scale is 100%? If no, change to 100% restart PC and try again

[hg13190]

Hi all, I'm also facing this problem, driver takes most pointer a little further away from the element and then clicks. So it gives a NO CLICK exception.

Please help

[ranjan1522]

Make the resolution of the screen of local machine as 100%, then try. Hope so it will work for you.

[avian27]

I did not understand what do you mean by making resolution to 100%. The resolution of my laptop is as per recommended settings and i am not resizing the calculator

Hi, thanks @prabhatranjan2206 that fixed the issue

All I did was changed the display scale to 96 dpi i.e 100%

Issue has been resolved By updating jar.

        }

        Console.WriteLine("Controller tab is Opened ");
