How Can I wait for an Element will be visible then be clicked in Python Selenium Webdriver?

Question

I have this code

driver.find_element_by_xpath("//button[@class='control-button']").click()

while True:

    driver.find_element_by_xpath("//button[@class='control-button']").click()

    time.sleep(randint(200, 300))

very often the button is not clickable.

is there a way to wait for it to be visible and click?

Answer 1

Remove the while loop and run this .click() function that will help you to click on the desired button present in that XPath. If you want to see the next page then import the package using:

import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

then, inside the code try 

driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

That will work for you.
