I have read this answer and implemented its suggestions to simulate drag and drop within selenium. The issue is that the recommended drag_and_drop_helper.js didn't allow us to catch a bug in our application because it directly fires the drop event.
With HTML5 drag and drop it is important that you preventDefault() on the dragover event in order for the drop event to fire properly. The issue was that this preventDefault() was accidentally removed and broke the drag and drop of the application, but selenium was not able to catch this because the simulated drag and drop continued to work normally.
Is there a better way to simulate drag and drop that would have allowed catching this issue?
