How to locate the input within div
1
I got an issue reading XPath. Need some help/advise from experts.
Part of the HTML code:
<div id="nav-typeahead-wormhole">
<div class="nav-search-typeahead">
<artdeco-typeahead-deprecated id="nav-search-artdeco-typeahead" class="search-typeahead-v2 ember-view">
<artdeco-typeahead-deprecated-input id="ember35" class="ember-view">
<!---->
<input role="combobox" autocomplete="off" spellcheck="false" aria-autocomplete="list" aria-expanded="false" placeholder="Recherche" type="text">
</artdeco-typeahead-deprecated-input>
<!---->
I try to select the input in the div id="nav-typeahead-wormhole" using Xpath
My code is the following:
search = browser.find_element_by_xpath("//div[@id='nav-typeahead-wormhole']/input[1]")
I got this error:
selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchElementException: Message: no such element: Unable to locate element: {"method":"xpath","selector":"//div[@id='nav-typeahead-wormhole']/input[1]"}

The desired <input> element is Ember.js based element so to identify the element you need to induce WebDriverWait for the element to be clickable and you can use either of the following solutions:
Using
CSS_SELECTOR:
search = WebDriverWait(browser, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "div#nav-typeahead-wormhole input[placeholder='Recherche']")))
Using
XPATH:
search = WebDriverWait(browser, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//div[@id='nav-typeahead-wormhole']//input[@placeholder='Recherche']")))
Note : You have to add the following imports :
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

The INPUT element isn't a child of the DIV you reference in your locator as is implied with the / operator. / is child (one level down), // is any descendant (one or more levels down). So your XPath should be:
//div[@id='nav-typeahead-wormhole']//input[1]
Other alternatives are:
//div[@id='nav-typeahead-wormhole']/div//input
or
//artdeco-typeahead-deprecated[@id='nav-search-artdeco-typeahead']/artdeco-typeahead-deprecated-input/input
or
//artdeco-typeahead-deprecated/artdeco-typeahead-deprecated-input/input
or
//div[@id="nav-typeahead-wormhole"]//input[@placeholder="Recherche"]

Xpath is slow. Try using css selectors:
