We can check if an element exists with Selenium webdriver. There are multiple ways to check it. We shall use the explicit wait concept in synchronization to verify the visibility of an element.Let us consider the below webelement and check if it is visible on the page. There is a condition called visibilityOfElementLocated which we will use to check for element visibility. It shall wait for a specified amount of time for the element after which it shall throw an exception.We need to import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions and import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait to incorporate expected conditions and WebDriverWait class. We will introduce a try/catch ... Read More

We can check if an element exists with Selenium webdriver. There are multiple ways to achieve this. We can introduce a try / except block. In the except block, we shall throw the NoSuchElementException in case the element does not exist on the page.We can also verify if an element is present in the page, with the help of find_elements() method. This method returns a list of matching elements. We can get the size of the list with the len method. If the len is greater than 0, we can confirm that the element exists on the page.Examplefrom selenium import webdriver ... Read More
