Getting Error Message : org.openqa.selenium.ElementNotVisibleException: Element is not displayed

Reason : The object is not visble, so its throws this exception in ie (Even if its display in IE). So we need to make it display before run script.

Solution:





Selenium determines an element is visible or not by the following criteria (use a DOM inspector to determine what css applies to your element, make sure you look at computed style):

visibility != hidden
display != none (is also checked against every parent element)
opacity != 0 (this is not checked for clicking an element)
height and width are both > 0
for an input, the attribute type != hidden

Your element is matching one of those criteria. If you do not have the ability to change the styling of the element, here is how you can forcefully do it with javascript.

((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript("arguments[0].checked = true;", inputElement);

or

jse.executeScript("document.getElementById('mini-7').setAttribute('checked', 'true');");
