Selenium driver Python drag and drop, element is dropped where is pointer and not dropping area

Question

The drag action is working, but instead of drop in the selected area, drop on mouse pointer position. Someone has any idea? Thanks

def test_drag_action_to_tsb(self, driver):
    source_element = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="bzm-action-builder-tabs-tabpane-ACTION"]/ul/li[1]')
    base.wait_for_element(driver, By.CLASS_NAME, 'scriptless-scenarios-steps-panel')
    dest_element = driver.find_element_by_class_name(self, 'scriptless-scenarios-steps-panel')
    ActionChains(driver).click_and_hold(source_element).move_to_element(dest_element).release(dest_element).perform()
    time.sleep(5)
    assert base.is_text_present(driver, 'is Required')
    time.sleep(5)

Please share HTML of Source and destination element with error if you are getting — Muzzamil, Jan 14 '20 at 14:23
no errors and dest_element exist because I check for it (wait_for_element) — Morticella, Jan 14 '20 at 14:34

Is the source element above or below the destination element? — Jortega, Jan 14 '20 at 19:34

Depending on selenium documentation following codes should work :

ActionChains(driver). drag_and_drop(source_element, dest_element).perform()
