I’m new to using Selenium and have successfully automated a process to log in to a website, navigate to the desired page, and upload a document. However, I’m encountering an issue when trying to download a GIF. Selenium fails to click the download button, resulting in a TimeoutException(message, screen, stacktrace). Here is the code snippet that I’m using to click the button:
download_button = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "button.cc-button-component.cc-button-primary.download-button-button")))
download_button.click()
The webpage I’m working with is: https://www.chess.com/analysis?tab=analysis. After uploading a PGN file and navigating to Share -> Animated Gif, there is a download button. The script runs smoothly until this point, where it fails to click the download button.
I’ve tried different selectors like XPath, increased the wait time, and verified that it’s not within an iframe. Despite these efforts, the issue persists. Any advice or solutions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
