Selenium/Java动态元素校验问题：互斥元素定位失败

The root cause of your issue is that your current condition checks the presence of the common parent container (commonDiv), which exists in both scenarios. This means your code always enters the if block—even when scenario A (elem1 is visible) is active—leading to an attempt to click addToCartStock an element that doesn't exist in scenario A, hence the "cannot locate element" error.

To fix this, we need to directly check which of the two mutually exclusive child elements is present. Here's the revised code:

import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;
import java.time.Duration;

public void checkTextInPopUp() {
    // Wait for the common parent widget to load (handles dynamic content)
    WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, Duration.ofSeconds(10));
    WebElement parentWidget = wait.until(
        ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(By.id("CheckStockProductAvailabilityWidget"))
    );

    // Check if elem1 (ajaxErrorMsg) exists (scenario A)
    List<WebElement> errorMsgElements = parentWidget.findElements(By.id("ajaxErrorMsg"));
    if (!errorMsgElements.isEmpty()) {
        String errorText = errorMsgElements.get(0).getText();
        System.out.println("Error Message: " + errorText);
        
        // Wait for and click the close button
        WebElement closeBtn = wait.until(
            ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.id("closeCheckStock"))
        );
        closeBtn.click();
    } else {
        // Scenario B: elem2 is present - extract its text (e.g., Part#)
        WebElement partInfo = wait.until(
            ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(By.xpath(".//div[contains(text(), 'Part#')]"))
        );
        String partText = partInfo.getText();
        System.out.println("Part Information: " + partText);
        
        // Wait for and click the add to cart button
        WebElement addToCartBtn = wait.until(
            ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.id("addToCartStock"))
        );
        addToCartBtn.click();
    }
}

Key Changes Explained: #

• Wait for Dynamic Content: Added WebDriverWait to ensure elements are fully loaded before interacting with them—critical for pages with dynamic content.
• Safe Element Presence Check: Used findElements() (instead of findElement()) to check if ajaxErrorMsg exists without throwing an exception. If the list isn't empty, we're in scenario A.
• Scenario B Handling: If elem1 doesn't exist, we confirm elem2 is present. We locate and extract its text (adjust the XPath if needed to target your desired content) before clicking the add-to-cart button.
• Reliable Button Clicks: Used elementToBeClickable to ensure buttons are ready to interact with, avoiding premature click errors.

This approach correctly differentiates between the two scenarios and handles each case appropriately.
