Can't interact with checkboxes and button

In this URL: http://estatisticas.cetip.com.br/astec/series_v05/paginas/lum_web_v05_template_informacoes_di.asp?str_Modulo=completo&int_Idioma=2&int_Titulo=6&int_NivelBD=2/

I'm trying to click the checkboxes and calculate button, however, I am unable to.

I have tried the following:

# checkbox
WebDriverWait(driver,5).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH,'//input[@name="chk_M1"]'))).click()

# button
driver.find_element_by_xpath('//a[@class="button" and contains(text(),"Calculate")]')

I can properly select the elements when I search in the elements when inspecting. I tried waiting, but still can't select.

Checkbox: enter image description here

Button: enter image description here

Error:

selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"xpath","selector":"//a[@class="button" and contains(text(),"Calculate")]"}
Solution

  • You waited before clicking the checkbox but not the CALCULATE button. I'm not sure if that's the whole issue but I wrote the code for this scenario from scratch. It's below and it's working fine for me. I added a wait and printed the number of rows from the result page. I'm assuming you're going to do something on the result page... either with the table data or download the file.

    from selenium import webdriver

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.support.wait import WebDriverWait

driver = webdriver.Chrome()

url = "http://estatisticas.cetip.com.br/astec/series_v05/paginas/lum_web_v05_template_informacoes_di.asp?str_Modulo=completo&int_Idioma=2&int_Titulo=6&int_NivelBD=2/"
driver.get(url)

wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10)
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "input[name='chk_M1']"))).click()
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "a.button[href*='Checa']"))).click()

rows = wait.until(EC.visibility_of_all_elements_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "table tbody tr")))
print(len(rows))

driver.quit()

    and it outputs
