How to use Button class In Selenium Webdriver by the help of Java

Question

Here is my code:

<div class="meal_buton_cont">
<button class="pink_button" data-target="#myModal" data-toggle="modal">Add Selected to Shopping List</button>
<button id="add_meal" class="gray_button">+ Add Meal</button>
</div>

I am using this:

driver.findElement(By.className("pink_button")).click();

But no popup open but some time open but not item take, it show blank.

How to create script for clicking Pink_button then my popup will be open?

Please help me

Answer 1

Few things to consider..Wait before the element appears using explicit waits like WebDriverWait API. Once the element is clickable using ExpectedConditions.elementToBeclickable(WebElement) then click on it and again wait till the pop-up appears. if its alert then use ExpectedConditions.alsertIsPresent() with WebDriverWait
