"Cannot perform the ClickItem operation" on dropdown more than once before having to restart browser.
Hi there,
I'm having an issue with the ClickItem operation only being able to select from a dropdown once before having to restart my browser (IE11). Am using Keywords testing.
I'm using a data-driven loop and on the first pass all the dropdowns select with no problem. On the second run I receive an error "Cannot perform the ClickItem operation." From that point on, if I try to re-run my test the ClickItem operation fails on the first pass of the loop.
Once I restart my browser, the operation runs successfully on the first run of the loop but fails from that point on. So I'm only able to run the operation once.
I've tried verifying that the object is identified using the "highlight on screen" feature and also by creating a checkpoint before the ClickItem operation--both look good. I've also tried adding a delay before the operation in case there was an issue w/ the data not being ready for whatever reason, but still have the issue.
Hoping to stick to Keywords testing, but can usually make sense of JS if I need to.
Anyone have any ideas on what I should check out? Thanks for any help!
