I need human like mouse movements prior to the mouse clicking the follow button. As this website seems to be checking your a human before clicking. Is this possible using action chains, looked at loads of examples but nothing seems to fit.

eg.,

def __init__(self): 
self.action = ActionChains(self.driver)
self.driver = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install())

eg.,

def follow(self):
        try:
            self.driver.find_element_by_xpath("//header//button[text()=\"Follow\"]").click()

@ArnaudClaudel not if op needs to create "human-like mouse movements" before clicking the button – harmonica141 Aug 14 '19 at 08:13
@Drav please clarify. – harmonica141 Aug 14 '19 at 08:13
I move the mouse pointer to the button and press click, from some random point on the screen and not in a straight line. – Drav Aug 14 '19 at 08:15
@Drav you do this yourself and the human-like part is irrelevant now? Then this is a duplicate of https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17293914/ – harmonica141 Aug 14 '19 at 08:16
So the code above finds the follow button and clicks without any movements and this action is blocked, if you do the action yourself with the mouse and left click its not blocked. – Drav Aug 14 '19 at 08:28
Then you could use the method `moveByOffset(x,y)` – Arnaud Claudel Aug 14 '19 at 16:02
What is "blocking" the action? Can you post the error you are getting? – Greg Burghardt Aug 14 '19 at 16:43
Can you add, in order, the sequence of events that does work? – Greg Burghardt Aug 14 '19 at 16:43
