How to use example method of org.openqa.selenium.grid.config.DescribedOption class

Try using simple java script below and you can scroll the page.

JavascriptExecutor jsx = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
jsx.executeScript("window.scrollBy(0,450)", "");

BrowserStack provides the Local testing feature to test the internal websites which are not accessible publicly. Local testing feature is enabled by setting the capability 'browserstack.local' to the value 'true' and starting the BrowserStackLocal binary.

Have you started the BrowserStackLocal binary? You can start the binary by executing the following command in your command prompt-

BrowserStackLocal.exe --key ACCESS_KEY

The error - '[browserstack.local] is set to true but local testing through BrowserStack is not connected.' usually occurs when the BrowserStackLocal binary is not running.

I can think of the following causes for the error-

1. When the test script and BrowserStackLocal binary connection do not use the same username and access key. You can verify the username and access key associated with your account here, https://www.browserstack.com/accounts/settings

2. When the test script and BrowserStackLocal binary connection do not use the same local identifier

3. When a new BrowserStackLocal binary is invoked with the same parameters and hence the old connection is closed thereby displaying the error
4. Binary disconnected at your end due to some network connectivity issues

You can make sure that the test script and the BrowserStackLocal binary uses the same access key and the same local identifier, in case, if you are using a Local Identifier for the BrowserStackLocal binary connection. Also, make sure that all the old connections of BrowserStackLocal binary are terminated before starting a new one with the same parameters.

I found the work around as below

1. Open terminal
2. Navigate to path where your chromedriver file is located
3. Execute any one of the below commands

Command1: xattr -d com.apple.quarantine <name-of-executable>

Example

/usr/local/Caskroom/chromedriver 
$ xattr -d com.apple.quarantine chromedriver 

(or)

Command2: spctl --add --label 'Approved' <name-of-executable>

Source: https://docwhat.org/upgrading-to-catalina

Note: This will work only with the file(s) where the above command is executed. If a new chromedriver is downloaded then the command has to be executed again on the newly downloaded file

It is actually possible to scroll automatically to element. Although this is not a good solution in this case (there must be a way to get it working without scrolling) I will post it as a workaround. I hope someone will come up with better idea...

public void scrollAndClick(By by)
{
   WebElement element = driver.findElement(by);
   int elementPosition = element.getLocation().getY();
   String js = String.format("window.scroll(0, %s)", elementPosition);
   ((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript(js);
   element.click();
}

PhantomJS uses different mechanism in setting capabilities

static ArrayList<String> cliArgsCap = new ArrayList<String>();
capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.phantomjs();
cliArgsCap.add("--web-security=false");
cliArgsCap.add("--ssl-protocol=any");
cliArgsCap.add("--ignore-ssl-errors=true");
capabilities.setCapability("takesScreenshot", true);
capabilities.setCapability(
    PhantomJSDriverService.PHANTOMJS_CLI_ARGS, cliArgsCap);
capabilities.setCapability(
    PhantomJSDriverService.PHANTOMJS_GHOSTDRIVER_CLI_ARGS,
        new String[] { "--logLevel=2" });
this.driver = new PhantomJSDriver(capabilities);

For more information about its command line, you could reference http://phantomjs.org/api/command-line.html

The text you want is present in a text node and cannot be retrieved directly with Selenium since it only supports element nodes.

You could remove the beginning:

String buttonText = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("div.success > button")).getText();
String fullText = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("div.success")).getText();
String text = fullText.substring(buttonText.length());

You could also extract the desired content from the innerHTML with a regular expression:

String innerText = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("div.success")).getAttribute("innerHTML");
String text = innerText.replaceFirst(".+?</button>([^>]+).*", "$1").trim();

Or with a piece of JavaScript code:

String text = (String)((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript(
    "return document.querySelector('div.success > button').nextSibling.textContent;");

Go with PhantomJS but if running them in chromedriver is required and you have the resources, this blog has a good recipe on running headless selenium with chrome. Requiring you to download the following...

• VirtualBox
• Vagrant
• NodeJS

If you plan to implement Jenkins or any other CI in the future, I strongly suggest going with PhantomJS though.

    psdbComponent.clickDocumentLink();
    ArrayList<String> tabs2 = new ArrayList<String> (driver.getWindowHandles());
    driver.switchTo().window(tabs2.get(1));
    driver.close();
    driver.switchTo().window(tabs2.get(0));

This code perfectly worked for me. Try it out. You always need to switch your driver to new tab, before you want to do something on new tab.

Every time the DOM is changed, or even just refreshed, all previously located elements become stale and are no longer valid. It doesn't matter if the element looks identical, its a new element.

Java ExpectedConditions (and only Java currently) have the refreshed to wait for the element to be redrawn in the DOM

(new WebDriverWait(driver, 30)).until(ExpectedConditions.refreshed(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOf(successMsg)));
