ExpectedConditions.frameToBeAvailableAndSwitchToIt("Id or Name") not working when ran in chromedriver

[Mrunal Gosar]

Hi

I was trying below code in FirefoxDriver, so it is working in firefox, but when i tried running the same in chromedriver it is failing not sure as to why?

I suspect ExpectedConditions.frameToBeAvailableAndSwitchToIt("Id or Name") is not working in chrome. would like to know why such behavior?

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;

import org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException;

import org.openqa.selenium.TimeoutException;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;

import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;

public class FrameExample

{

public static void main(String[] args)

{

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "D:/PROGRAMMING SOFTWARES/Selenium/chromedriver_win32/chromedriver.exe");

WebDriver driver=new ChromeDriver();

// WebDriver driver=new FirefoxDriver();

WebDriverWait wait=new WebDriverWait(driver, 5, 2000);

wait.ignoring(NoSuchElementException.class,TimeoutException.class);

driver.manage().window().maximize();

driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(2, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

driver.get("http://www.quackit.com/html/templates/frames/frames_example_1.html");

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.frameToBeAvailableAndSwitchToIt("menu"));

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(By.xpath(".//*[text()='Example 1']"))).click();

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.frameToBeAvailableAndSwitchToIt("menu"));

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(By.xpath(".//*[text()='Example 2']"))).click();

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.frameToBeAvailableAndSwitchToIt("menu"));

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(By.xpath(".//*[text()='Example 3']"))).click();

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.frameToBeAvailableAndSwitchToIt("menu"));

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(By.xpath(".//*[text()='Example 4']"))).click();

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.frameToBeAvailableAndSwitchToIt("menu"));

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(By.xpath(".//*[text()='Example 5']"))).click();

driver.close();

}

}

The fact it works for Firefox is actually a little surprising. When you click "Example 3" the new page which loads has two frameset elements the previous pages only had one frameset. I would handle this by using: 

        ExpectedConditions.frameToBeAvailableAndSwitchToIt(By locator)

rather than locating it by the frame name attribute.
