Playwright: WebKit: I.waitForText() with XPath element fails: TypeError: $XPath is not a function

[mirao]

What are you trying to achieve?

I.waitForText("Joe7520373868311179 Autotest010825480018201938", 20, locate(".right.menu").last().find(".dropdown"));

should pass

What do you get instead?

It fails:

     Text "Joe7520373868311179 Autotest010825480018201938" was not found on page after 20 sec
page.waitForFunction: Evaluation failed: TypeError: $XPath is not a function. (In '$XPath(null, locator)', '$XPath' is "function $XPath(element, selector) {
  const found = document.evaluate(selector, element || document.body, null, 5, null);
  const res = [];
  let current = null;
  while (current = found.iterateNext()) {
    res.push(current);
  }
  return res;
}")
  Error: Text "Joe7520373868311179 Autotest010825480018201938" was not found on page after 20 sec
  page.waitForFunction: Evaluation failed: TypeError: $XPath is not a function. (In '$XPath(null, locator)', '$XPath' is "function $XPath(element, selector) {
    const found = document.evaluate(selector, element || document.body, null, 5, null);
  
  Scenario Steps:
  - I.waitForText("Joe7520373868311179 Autotest010825480018201938", 20, {xpath: (.//*[(contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(./@class), ' '), ' right ') and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(./@class), ' '), ' menu '))])[position()=last()-0]//*[contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(./@class), ' '), ' dropdown ')]}) at Object.loginSuccess (/home/mirao/workspace/codeceptjs/tests/spork-publisher/pages/Login.js:135:11)

Note that only WebKit browser is affected. It works well in Chromium and Firefox Nightly.

Details

• CodeceptJS version: 3.0.6
• NodeJS Version: v12.22.1
• Operating System: Ubuntu 20.04/21.04
• Playwright 1.11.1
• WebKit 1472

Same for : "playwright": "1.13.1", "codeceptjs": "3.1.1" versions

I can see the same issue in method waitNumberOfVisibleElements:

Code: I.waitNumberOfVisibleElements({xpath: .//*[contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(./@class), ' '), ' ReactVirtualized__Grid__innerScrollContainer ')]//div[@role = 'row']}, 2)

Result:

The number of elements ({xpath: .//*[contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(./@class), ' '), ' ReactVirtualized__Grid__innerScrollContainer ')]//div[@role = 'row']}) is not 2 after 60 sec
 page.waitForFunction: TypeError: $XPath is not a function. (In '$XPath(null, locator)', '$XPath' is "function $XPath(element, selector) {
   const found = document.evaluate(selector, element || document.body, null, 5, null);
   const res = [];
   let current = null;
   while (current = found.iterateNext()) {
     res.push(current);
   }
   return res;
 }")

When I use seeNumberOfVisibleElements instead of waitNumberOfVisibleElements, it works fine.

Used SW:

• CodeceptJS 3.3.3
• Playwright 1.22.2, WebKit 15.4

I think its basically any method that uses xpath locators with a combination of wait? I am seeing the same for I.waitForEnabled('xpath locator') This happening only in webkit (safari)

page.waitForFunction: TypeError: $XPath is not a function. (In '$XPath(null, locator)', '$XPath' is "function $XPath(element, selector) {
  const found = document.evaluate(selector, element || document.body, null, 5, null);
  const res = [];
  let current = null;
  while (current = found.iterateNext()) {
    res.push(current);
  }
  return res;
}")

Same problem for me too, Webkit

Closed for now! Feel free to reopen if you still encounter the issue with latest version and would be nice to provide a sample code to reproduce the issue.

Which version contains the fix? Would love to see the corresponding commit.

[kobenguyent]

we moved to use Locator so I think that solved the issue -> https://github.com/codeceptjs/CodeceptJS/blob/3.x/lib/helper/Playwright.js#L2637

[mirao]

Still I can see the issue for I.waitForEnabled(), with CodeceptJS 3.5.14, Playwright 1.42.1, WebKit

I wait for enabled {xpath: //button[contains(., 'Add Lesson')]}

I.waitForElement() works well.
