Element States Issues
Pls, give me some tips on how to use states, because now the same error is listed. In this case, I wait until the element is not visible. Thnx.

I set this keyword to fail after 20 seconds but it seems to be taking 5min 31sec very often. Is there a known reason for the timeout limit being exceeded? Is there a way to avoid this, should I use Wait For Condition instead?

How to handle with multiple elements?
Example:
In a FOR loop keyword, theres is ONLY one element in DOM:
//p[.=“PĂłs-vacina/Serviços FarmacĂȘuticos”]
but after some actions, this there will be more of this element:
! handler execution failed: Error: locator.waitFor: Error: strict mode violation: locator(‘//p[.=“PĂłs-vacina/Serviços FarmacĂȘuticos”]’) resolved to 2 elements:
1)

PĂłs-vacina/Serviços FarmacĂȘuticos

aka getByText(‘PĂłs-vacina/Serviços FarmacĂȘ’).first()
2)

PĂłs-vacina/Serviços FarmacĂȘuticos

aka getByText(‘PĂłs-vacina/Serviços FarmacĂȘ’).nth(1)

Call log:

  • waiting for locator(‘//p[.=“PĂłs-vacina/Serviços FarmacĂȘuticos”]’) to be visible

How do I proceed?

Hi Matheus

try this xpath:

(//p[.=“PĂłs-vacina/Serviços FarmacĂȘuticos”])[1]

the part inside the brackets () can return multiple and the [1] says always take the first one, see XPath Syntax > Predicates for more detail
