Description Jonathan Druart 2021-11-15 13:59:23 UTC
Since bug 19185, and Koha_Master running the tests after t/db_dependent/selenium/01-installation.t is ran, t/db_dependent/selenium/administration_tasks.t is failing randomly with:

12:32:59 koha_1       | STRACE:	/usr/share/perl5/Try/Tiny.pm:123 in Selenium::Remote::Driver::catch {...} 
12:32:59 koha_1       | 	/usr/local/share/perl/5.28.1/Selenium/Remote/Driver.pm:361 in Try::Tiny::try
12:32:59 koha_1       | 	(eval 1710):1 in Selenium::Remote::Driver::__ANON__
12:32:59 koha_1       | 	(eval 1712):2 in Selenium::Remote::Driver::__ANON__
12:32:59 koha_1       | 	/usr/local/share/perl/5.28.1/Selenium/Remote/Driver.pm:1340 in Selenium::Remote::Driver::_execute_command
12:32:59 koha_1       | 	/usr/local/share/perl/5.28.1/Selenium/Remote/Driver.pm:1340 in (eval)
12:32:59 koha_1       | 	/kohadevbox/koha/t/lib/Selenium.pm:170 in Selenium::Remote::Driver::find_element
12:32:59 koha_1       | 	t/db_dependent/selenium/administration_tasks.t:188 in t::lib::Selenium::click

I don't recreate it locally.

The screenshot of the failure shows that the screen is still on the authorised value list view.

Bug 29485: Trying to prevent administration_tasks.t to fail randomly

Since bug 19185, and Koha_Master running the tests after t/db_dependent/selenium/01-installation.t is ran, t/db_dependent/selenium/administration_tasks.t is failing randomly with:

12:32:59 koha_1       | STRACE:	/usr/share/perl5/Try/Tiny.pm:123 in Selenium::Remote::Driver::catch {...}

This does not make a lot of sense, but I am failing to find a logic
here.

Patch pushed to master for 21.11.00
Comment 3 Victor Grousset/tuxayo 2021-11-17 00:41:25 UTC
thanks, I'll try to reproduce and see if that can still happen when I'll upgrade Selenium to v4.

Fingers crossed to not need the dirty fix after that.

Pushed to 21.05.x for 21.05.05
Comment 5 Fridolin Somers 2021-11-20 00:24:41 UTC
I see it has been reverted from 21.05.x :

Yes, my bad for not posting an update.

Patched unit tests run and pass, but are superfluous as parent bug is not part of 21.05.x.

Bug 29485: (follow-up) Trying to prevent administration_tasks.t to fail randomly

Recreated the problem after run #47
Error while executing command: no such element: Unable to locate element: //*[@id="userid"] at /usr/local/share/perl/5.28.1/Selenium/Remote/Driver.pm line 411.

With this patch I do not longer recreate the failure. It's ugly but,
well, I don't have any other solutions. It seems that the accept_alert
is taking too long and is async (??)
