Question

I am trying to select and click the sign in button using python selenium chrome driver however I am unsure how to define the button:

<button class="Wizard__AccountActionButton-mlu9la-10 fCdYqg flex justify-center items-center  font-din">Sign in</button>

To click on the element with text as Sign in you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

Using css_selector:

driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, "button.flex.justify-center.items-center.font-din").click()

Using xpath:

driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//a[contains(@class, 'flex justify-center items-center  font-din') and text()='Sign in']").click()

Ideally, to click on the element you need to induce WebDriverWait for the element_to_be_clickable() and you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

Using CSS_SELECTOR:

WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "button.flex.justify-center.items-center.font-din"))).click()

Using XPATH:

WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//a[contains(@class, 'flex justify-center items-center  font-din') and text()='Sign in']"))).click()

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
