Unable to click login button of Microsoft account of my angularjs application with Protractor

Question

Following code for microsoft account login not working:

browser.driver.findElement(By.css("#cred_userid_inputtext")).sendKeys("suyash@xxxxx.onmicrosoft.com");
browser.driver.findElement(By.css("#cred_password_inputtext")).sendKeys("xxxx2");
browser.driver.findElement(By.id('cred_sign_in_button')).click();
browser.driver.findElement(By.id('cred_sign_in_button')).click(); browser.driver.sleep(5000);   

I am using Chrome 64 bit browser.

Answer 1

Instead of using the global browser.driver... selector method, try using this concatenated syntax.

$('#cred_sign_in_button).click();

the $(..) is short hand for element(by.css(.. more examples -> http://luxiyalu.com/protractor-locators-selectors/

Protractor has a number of different ways you can select an attribute.Would you mind posting the HTML element for the button you are trying to select?

Answer 2

Use directly protractor methods if it is Angular like element(by.model('ios')); element(by.id('android')); etc., and use implicit wait until element is preset https://angular.github.io/protractor/#/api?view=ExpectedConditions . Can you post the error and html so that we will have big picture.
