Re: [geb-user] Strange behavior for element

[tho...@posteo.de]

Often times, certain elements only appear on the page after some
Javascript has run.
At the point of time when you check manually, the element is already
available, but the automated test might be too fast.

Try this:
otherInsuranceAmount(wait: true) { $('[id$=otheramount]') }

If you put the breakpoint at the "at MyPage" line then the page reference has not yet been switched to an instance of MyPage and that's probably why you're getting a MissingPropertyExpression when trying to evaluate "otherInsuranceAmount". I would suggest putting the breakpoint after that line or trying to evaluate "at(MyPage).otherInsuranceAmount".

Right, when I wrote my suggestion, I did not consider the problem you
have with the debugging process itself.
I mistook MissingPropertyExpression for ElementNotFoundException.

But keep in mind that when debugging, you are changing the timing of the
browser communication, which might cause the problem not to be
reproducible that way.
