Unknown error: cannot focus element

[vishruth143]

Hi All,

I have written the below code

import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Font;
import java.util.Date;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;

import com.assertthat.selenium_shutterbug.core.Shutterbug;

public class ShutterBug {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\Eclipse\\Drivers\\chromedriver.exe");
        WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
        driver.manage().window().maximize();
        driver.get("https://www.google.com/");
        WebElement googleLogo = driver.findElement(By.xpath(".//*[@id='hplogo']"));
        WebElement searchBtn = driver.findElement(By.xpath(".//*[@id='tsf']/div[2]/div[3]/center/input[1]"));
        WebElement searchBox = driver.findElement(By.xpath(".//*[@id='sb_ifc0']"));

        searchBox.sendKeys("Testing");

        Shutterbug.shootPage(driver)
            .blur(searchBox)
            .highlight(searchBtn)
            .monochrome(googleLogo)
            .highlightWithText(googleLogo, Color.blue, 3, "Monochromed logo",Color.blue, new Font("SansSerif", Font.BOLD, 20))
            .highlightWithText(searchBox, "Blurred secret words")
            .withTitle("Google home page - " + new Date())
            .withName("home_page")
            .withThumbnail(0.7)
            .save("C:\\Users\\Vishvambruth JT\\Desktop\\Screen.jpg");
            driver.quit();
    }
}

But the code is failing with the below error:

Hi @vishruth143 ,

The issue you have raised is nothing to do with shutterbug code (filing at at ShutterBug.main(ShutterBug.java:23)). You are getting the exception above because of invalid locator for search box.

Try using this one instead:

 WebElement searchBox = driver.findElement(By.xpath(".//*[@id='lst-ib']"));
