Unable to simulate ClickItem in Firefox or Edge
When I record as script, it records as clickItem("ABC"), however when replaying that action Firefox is unable to click it. However Chrome has no issue. Has anyone ever had this issue?

What is the error message you get with Firefox, if any?

Why automate? I do automated testing because there's only so much a human being can do and remain healthy. Sleep is a requirement. So, while people sleep, automation that I create does what I've described above in order to make sure that nothing gets past the final defense of the testing group.
I love good food, good books, good friends, and good fun.

There is no error message. It just refuses to click it.

Interesting... this almost sounds like a timing issue... I've seen things like this before even in IE where a component is basically "ready" to be clicked but, for whatever reason, the browser hasn't fully rendered the control in such a way that clicking on it actually works.
Just as an experiment... if you add a hardcoded delay of 5000 ms before you attempt the click item, what happens?

Yes I have tried that already, no dice.
I have generated two reports as shown below. Each report has a delay(5000) before clicking on the Item in question.
The report says it is being clicked, but it isn't actually being clicked.
In the first image, this was performed with Firefox. As you can see the action was recorded as successful. But the result says other wise. Yes manually clicking in firefox and edge work.
In this image below, it was performed in Chrome. The item was clicked and it is reflected by the property check as successful.
Here is an image of the textbox list in question

Glad to hear it!
And double Kudos for the AWESOME doctor names... Doc Banner, Doc Oc, and Doctor Wayne... although, mixing Marvel and DC Comics COULD get you in trouble with some people... but not me. 🙂
