selenium.JavascriptException: javascript error: Failed to execute 'elementFromPoint' on 'Document': The provided double value is non-finite

Question

using chrome 78 and chromedriver78 When i click an audio file or try to stop an audio using selenium tests i am getting this error.

Error:

org.openqa.selenium.JavascriptException: javascript error: Failed to execute 'elementsFromPoint' on 'Document': The provided double value is non-finite.

Note it happens only with remote webdriver and its not consistent.

Error stack trace:

When the audio player of the "item_1" element is stopped in "[data-rcfid='checkbox_7']"

Answer 1

I had same issue and observation was , multiple elements by same xpath. Finding different unique xpath resolved it

Answer 2

I have faced the same issue and was able to resolve it by simply scrolling the window down to the element I am targeting. Seems like the element wasn't showing in the viewport and that's why it wasn't visible to selenium.

Try to add the following lines before finding and clicking the element:

driver.execute_script("window.scrollTo(0, window.scrollY + 100)")
driver.implicitly_wait(3)
