Possible issue with Chromedriver 78, Selenium can not find web element of embeded PDF opened in Chrome #7725
Description
Until my google Chrome wasn't updated to version 78 my test automation scripts worked fine. So I am not able anymore to find WebElement with id='plugin' in PDF opened in browser using Selenium WebDriver and Java:
<html>
<div id="content">
<embed id="plugin" type="application/x-google-chrome-pdf" src="http://??????????/offer_printed.php?printable=yes&reanudar=&>
</div>
</html>
Java selenium code:
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait (driver, 90);
WebElement scrollvalid = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.id("plugin")));
scrollvalid.sendKeys(Keys.PAGE_DOWN);
scrollvalid.sendKeys(Keys.PAGE_DOWN);
Error:
org.openqa.selenium.TimeoutException: Timed out after 90 seconds waiting for visibility of element located by By.id: plugin
After I deleted Google Chrome version 78 and installed version 76 my automation tests are working again. Everything works perfectly. I hope that this issue with version 78 will be fixed.
Thank you!
