Maybe driver issue? Please Help :)

[TomC]

Hey all,

I wanted to make a script that could populate a dynamic entry label from a textFile.

This is what I am using:

Windows 10:   64bit

PyCharm:        2018.1.4 (community V)

chrome driver: 2.4.0

chrome:           67.0.3396.99

Selenium:        3.13.0

pip:                  9.0.3

I am running to an issue where my forLoop is not happy about populating the Label fields. I don't know if it is my logic that is bad or the driver crapping out. I looked at the logic over and over again ... it is pretty simple ... maybe that is why I can't see the mistake?

==============

Code

==============

from selenium import webdriver
import time

from selenium.webdriver.chrome.webdriver import WebDriver

driver = webdriver.Chrome("C:\Users\GP\PycharmProjects\CostcoTest\drivers\chromedriver.exe")  # type: WebDriver
driver.set_page_load_timeout("30")
driver.get("https://www.costco.com/OrderByItemsDisplayView")
driver.find_element_by_id("itemNumber").send_keys("1111111")

text_file = open("costcoSku.txt", "r")
lines = text_file.readlines()
number = 0

for line in lines:
    number += 1
    itemField = "itemNumber_" + str(number)
    driver.find_element_by_id(itemField).send_keys(line)
text_file.close()

time.sleep(4)
# driver.quit()

================

Execution Errors

================

Traceback (most recent call last):

    raise exception_class(message, screen, stacktrace)

selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"id","selector":"itemNumber_2"}

Any help will be greatly appreciated :) :)

Thanks!

Also, as a side note ... it works fine if you do a manual input, i.e ...

driver.find_element_by_id("itemNumber").send_keys("1111111")

driver.find_element_by_id("itemNumber_1").send_keys("1111112")
driver.find_element_by_id("itemNumber_2").send_keys("1111113")
driver.find_element_by_id("itemNumber_3").send_keys("11111114")

Never mind, the issue was reading the lines with extra "\n". Strip all and you are good to go.

Thanks.

Can you confirm the variable line for each iteration of the for loop prints "1111111", "1111112", etc?
