    Hi All,

    So i found out the root cause of the issue. Since all the drop down fields have same values, when it selects a value from the first drop down field, it stores that field's dom values or bounday values and though it opens the second drop down, it searches for the values in first drop down and since it couldn't find it, the test gave me out of the bounds error.

    Therefore, I made my xpath element more absolute(teels it in which dropdown, it should look for the values) and it resolved the issue.

    Hope it helps.

Thanks for the idea.. But that doesn't work as well. Works fine for the first set of clicks and getting the same error for second set of clicks.
