StaleElementReferenceException after click was made

[medveeee nagy]

hi, 

does anyone have an idea why I get this error 

org.openqa.selenium.StaleElementReferenceException: stale element reference: element is not attached to the page document

although the button was clicked already and navigation was done to the next page successfully?

30-Oct-2019 07:24:35	org.openqa.selenium.StaleElementReferenceException: stale element reference: element is not attached to the page document

It does not happen all the time, it is only occasional.

I simply click the product details button to get to the details page, 

seeing the screenshots it navigates to the detail page and gives me an StaleElementReferenceException, 

but the click was done.

def "Test: Go to productDetail '518326' "() {
 when:

   waitFor { productDetailsButton.displayed }

   productDetailsButton << Keys.ENTER

 then:

   waitFor {at ProductDetailPage}

   report "Product '518326' at Productdetailpage screenshot"
}

I am using these versions:

groovyVersion = '2.5.8' 
gebVersion = '3.2' 
seleniumVersion = '3.141.59' 
chromeDriverVersion = '78.0.3904.70' 

Thank you!

I'm afraid that if you want us to be able to help you will have to provide the full stacktrace and not just a snippet of it. Unfortunately, with the amount of information you provided it's impossible to get the necessary context to be able to understand what is going on.
