NoSuchELementException when element is actually present

[Venkatesh_Akula]

Hi, I meant the screenshot of your app with ‘Phone’ element highlighted, so that we can try to find a better locator for that element. You should try to access that element with a different locator options - id, class

Hi Venkatesh,

Please find the attached screenshot with the element highlighted in the red.

So you are trying to automate a third party application, ensure that you give the right package name and appActivity. Please check this link:

Hi,

Below is my code:

import java.net.MalformedURLException;

import java.net.SocketException;
import java.net.URL;
import java.util.Scanner;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

import com.convert.Ntow;

import io.appium.java_client.android.AndroidDriver;

public class Calling {
AndroidDriver dr;
@Test
public void call() throws MalformedURLException, WebDriverException, SocketException, InterruptedException
{

	DesiredCapabilities cp= new DesiredCapabilities();
	cp.setCapability("deviceName", "Moto C Plus");
	cp.setCapability("platformVersion", "7.0");
	cp.setCapability("platformName", "Android");
	cp.setCapability("appPackage", "com.motorola.launcher3");
	cp.setCapability("appActivity", "com.android.launcher3.GoogleNowPanel");
	
	dr = new AndroidDriver (new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub"),cp);
	
	dr.findElementByAccessibilityId("Phone").click();
	dr.findElement(By.id("com.android.dialer:id/floating_action_button")).click();
	
	Ntow c = new Ntow();
	
	Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
	System.out.print("Enter Mobile Number");
	
	int i; int arr[] = new int[10];
	int brr[]=new int[10];
	String[] srr= new String[10];

	
	for(i=0;i<10;i++)
	{
		arr[i]= sc.nextInt();
	}

for(int m=1;m<=5;m++)
{
for(int k:arr)
{
dr.findElement(By.id(“com.android.dialer:id/”+c.Convert(k)+"")).click();

	}
	dr.findElement(By.id("com.android.dialer:id/dialpad_floating_action_button")).click();
	
	Thread.sleep(12000);
	
	dr.findElement(By.id("com.android.dialer:id/floating_end_call_action_button")).click();
	
	}

}
}

Whenever I try to make the call 5 times after taking the mobile number from the user, the call is initiated for the first time but when it goes for the second iteration i got the below error:

I’m not sure what the above error is, I’m a Python guy. Sorry

Hi,
Keep in mind that implicit wait is not working anymore with uiAutomator2.
You are geting this error because the driver tries to find the element only 2 or 4 times in like 1 or 2 seconds and if is not finding anything will throw the error. Your element might still load. Try to put some Thread.sleep(2000) and see what happens.
I’m using explicit wait with uiAutomator2 and works like a charm:

public boolean waitForElementToBePresent(MobileElement element) {
try {
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, BaseSetup.EXPLICIT_WAIT_TIME, 500);
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOf(element));
return true;
} catch (NoSuchElementException e) {
return false;
}
}

@Zuzeac

Thank you, for your reply.

May I know Which class should I mentioned instead of BaseSetup in the below line:

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, BaseSetup.EXPLICIT_WAIT_TIME, 500);

I have tried the different way and I am getting error I have mentioned the code as well as attach the screenshot of the error:

import java.net.MalformedURLException;

import java.net.SocketException;
import java.net.URL;
import java.util.Scanner;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

import com.convert.Ntow;

import io.appium.java_client.MobileElement;
import io.appium.java_client.android.AndroidDriver;

public class Calling {

AndroidDriver dr;


@Test 
public void call() throws MalformedURLException, WebDriverException, SocketException, InterruptedException, NullPointerException
{
	WebDriverWait wait= new WebDriverWait(dr,20);
	DesiredCapabilities cp= new DesiredCapabilities();
	cp.setCapability("deviceName", "Moto C Plus");
	cp.setCapability("platformVersion", "7.0");
	cp.setCapability("platformName", "Android");
	cp.setCapability("appPackage", "com.motorola.launcher3");
	cp.setCapability("appActivity", "com.android.launcher3.GoogleNowPanel");
	
	dr = new AndroidDriver (new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub"),cp);
	
	dr.findElementByAccessibilityId("Phone").click();
	dr.findElement(By.id("com.android.dialer:id/floating_action_button")).click();
	
	Ntow c = new Ntow();
	
	Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
	System.out.print("Enter Mobile Number");
	
	int i; int arr[] = new int[10];
	int brr[]=new int[10];
	String[] srr= new String[10];

	
	for(i=0;i<10;i++)
	{
		arr[i]= sc.nextInt();
	}

for(int m=1;m<=5;m++)
{

	for(int k:arr)
	{
	WebElement dl= wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.id("com.android.dialer:id/"+c.Convert(k)+"")));
	dl.click();
	}
	
	dr.findElement(By.id("com.android.dialer:id/dialpad_floating_action_button")).click();
	Thread.sleep(10000);
	dr.findElement(By.id("com.android.dialer:id/floating_end_call_action_button")).click();

}

}
	}

[Zuzeac]

do it like this:
WebDriverWait wait= new WebDriverWait(dr,20,100);
BaseSetup is my class were I defined the EXPLICIT_WAIT time.
