Unable to click on button available on the page

Question

<button class="md-trigger btn btn-primary mrg-b-lg" data-toggle="modal" data-target="CaseProcessmodal" id="AddCaseButton" onclick="return validateForm('#CaseProcessmodal');">Add Case</button>

I have an element location like above, trying to click on the button in selenium, its not working. I am using page factory, element id is correctly matching though.

Verified with other matching element id.

Please format your question and add information like the page source, the code that you've used and what error you're facing. — demouser123, Jun 17 '19 at 10:30

The desired element is within a Modal Dialog so to click() on the element you have to induce WebDriverWait for the elementToBeClickable() and you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

cssSelector:

new WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.cssSelector("button.md-trigger.btn.btn-primary.mrg-b-lg#AddCaseButton[data-target='CaseProcessmodal']"))).click();

xpath:

new WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("//button[@class='md-trigger btn btn-primary mrg-b-lg' and @id='AddCaseButton'][text()='Add Case']"))).click();

I have already tried with wait formulae: Utils.scrollIntoView(driver, AddcaseButton); WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 30); wait.until(ExpectedConditions.refreshed(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(AddcaseButton))); its not workign either. Tried giving wait, action etc everything. After click on teh button there would be a processing screen and should close the window. click action is not working atall — RK007, Jun 18 '19 at 12:25
