Selenium: Element Not Found for existing element

So I have the following HTML Tag I want to fetch with Selenium:

<button data-v-48e2f75a="" class="app-button rose-button min-width">Sign in</button>

I am trying to fetch it like so:

...
browser.findElement(By.cssSelector("app-button rose-button min-width")).click();

When I run this it always returns the following exception:

org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException: Unable to locate element: app-button rose-button min-width

This is one of the methods I've tried already however it has not worked either:

browser.findElement(By.cssSelector("app-button rose-button min-width")).click();

The css selector is wrong. Try it in this way:

  • browser.findElement(By.cssSelector(".app-button.rose-button.min-width")).click();

It should be By.className instead of cssSelector.

Example:

    WebElement parentElement = driver.findElement(By.className("rose-button"));

If you want to use cssSelector, it should look like:

driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("button[class='app-button rose-button min-width']"));

Another way is using xpath:

driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[@class='app-button rose-button min-width']"));

And as DebanjanB mentioned, you can add webdriverwait also, if there is some kind of loading delay.

To click on the element with text as Sign in you have to induce WebDriverWait for the elementToBeClickable() and you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

  • Using cssSelector:

    new WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.cssSelector("button.app-button.rose-button.min-width"))).click();

  • Using xpath:

    new WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("//button[@class='app-button rose-button min-width' and text()='Sign in']"))).click();
