Selenium C# ElementNotFound Exception Handling

0

I am running a case in Selenium where I want to verify that all elements are displayed on a web page but only want custom asserts to display at the end of the test if one or more cannot be found. Currently, using driver.FindElement, I cannot get past the ElementNotFound exceptions when assigning elements to variables if they are not there at time of identification. Is there any way around this? Here is my current code

        IWebElement userIcon = driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("li.dropdown:nth-child(3) > a:nth-child(1)"));

        userIcon.Click();





        IWebElement profileIcon = driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("li.dropdown:nth-child(3) > ul:nth-child(2) > li:nth-child(1)"));

        profileIcon.Click();





        IWebElement headerLogo = driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector(".company-logo"));





        IWebElement headerMsgDrop = driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector(".fa-envelope-o"));

        headerMsgDrop.Click();

        IWebElement headerMsgDropSubGeneral = driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("li.dropdown:nth-child(2) > ul:nth-child(2)"));





        Assert.Multiple(() =>

        {

            Assert.IsTrue(headerLogo.Displayed, "Header Logo NOT Present");

            Assert.IsTrue(headerMsgDrop.Displayed, "Header Main Message Drop NOT Present");

            Assert.IsTrue(headerMsgDropSubGeneral.Displayed, "Header - Message - General Option NOT Present");

        });





        IWebElement headerUserDrop = driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("li.dropdown:nth-child(3) > a:nth-child(1)"));

        headerUserDrop.Click();

        IWebElement headerUserDropSubProfile = driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector(".user-name"));

You may be looking for this kind of solution:

    public IWebElement Get(By byLocator, double seconds = 10)

    {

        IWebElement element = null;



        WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(seconds));

        try

        {

            element = wait.Until(ExpectedConditions.ElementExists(byLocator));

        }

        catch (Exception) { }



        return element;

    }

Or you can wait for it to be clickable also.

ExpectedConditions.ElementToBeClickable(byLocator)

It looks like you are not waiting or you are not giving UI to load properly before capturing the next element and perform certain action on it.

You need to add some wait time before performing next step.
Eg. waitTillElementPresent
