Please provide concise reproducible test case so that we could act on this issue.

We are trying to click simple link using By.linkText("Content");
It was perfectly working when we were working on 2.46 version selenium and on firefox, chrome etc

But we updated the jar to 2.53 version and there are trouble clicking on majority of the clickable elements.

Is there any change related to click actions in the latest selenium version.?

We tried few alternatives like using xpath and css but the behavior is not consistent and the case fails very frequently.

We also tried on different machines and browser version as well like FF44, 45 and chrome latest and even in mac.

every case was working perfectly with older selenium version.

Any info on the clickable elements is very helpful

Thanks
