Click into an icon isn't working on protractor

Question

I have an icon to add a new item, i want to click into it but the action isn't done. I don't know if i'm locating the element in a right way ?

I have tried the answer provided in that Question :

element(by.css('[ng-click="createWL()"]')).click();

element(by.css("button[ng-click*=createWL]")).click();

But it didn't work for me.

Here my html code : <button class="md-icon-button watchlist-icon-button md-button md-ink-ripple" type="button" ng-transclude="" id="addWL" aria-label="Add Watchlist" ng-click="createWL()"> <ng-md-icon icon="add_circle_outline" class="ng-scope">

Did you try 'element(by.css(".watchlist-icon-button")).click();'? — Yaniv Efraim, May 14 '16 at 11:01

It looks that there are 3 elements, I have tried with all of them get(0) , then get(1) and get(2) but the test is passed and no action is done ! — Emna Ayadi, May 14 '16 at 11:26

The problem was that this test is executed before it's time so that it's failed and we didn't even see that icon in the screen.

So fix it with some wait ;) and test priority.
