Selenium : handling popups

Question

I'm getting an error while handling default popups with selenium scripts.

Here is the Code :

@Test
public void handlePop() {

    WebElement pop1 = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_PopupCTRLMain_imgNext']"));
    pop1.click();

    WebElement pop2 = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_PopupCTRLMain_Image2']"));
    pop2.click();
}

Following is the error I am getting while running the code:

org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException: Unable to locate element: //*[@id='ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_PopupCTRLMain_Image2']

That means that your element can not be found. Have you opened the developer tools in your browser and searched for that element? — Ryan Wilson, Feb 14 '18 at 17:45
yes, I tried. I also tried with other options like with cssPath, htmlPath — Juhil Somaiya, Feb 14 '18 at 17:48
Actually, the scenario is like two different popups are there, by clicking next button of the first popup I am jumping to another one. at that time I am getting this error — Juhil Somaiya, Feb 14 '18 at 17:50

More than likely your code is executing too quickly, it's clicking the first popup button, but you have no delay between that and the second popup click, I would wait until the second popup button is there before trying to click it. — Ryan Wilson, Feb 14 '18 at 18:06

You could probably add if condition to check if the pop is displayed, like

try { 
if (pop1.getSize > 0) {
  pop1.click();
 } catch (e)
}
