[intellij-ui-test-robot] Error when attempting to .click() on DomElement #491

Created May 14, 2025 17:59

Hi all,

Reposting an issue I've created on the repo for `intellij-ui-test-robot` to try and raise visibility as it's blocking myself and at least 2 other folks from using the tool for e2e testing of the browser components in our plugins.

## Overview
When attempting to click on a DomElement found using the `JCefBrowserFixture`, I get the error logs below.

## Relevant logs

```

com.intellij.remoterobot.fixtures.JCefBrowserFixture$JCEFScriptExecutionError: Failed to execute script:

const cefBrowser = local.get("__cefBrowser");
if (!cefBrowser) {
throw new Error("__cefBrowser was not initialized");
}
const query = local.get("__Query");
if (!query) {
throw new Error("__Query was not initialized");
}
const inProgress = "IN PROGRESS"
local.put("__Result", inProgress);
const getResult = () => local.get("__Result")

## Code to reproduce

```kotlin
val jcefBrowser =
find<JCefBrowserFixture>(if (isMac()) JCefBrowserFixture.macLocator else JCefBrowserFixture.canvasLocator)

val testElem = jcefBrowser.findElementByContainsText("Sample string in browser")
testElem.click() // This line fails with the above errors
```

## Relevant information
- Library version: 0.11.23
- OffScreenRendering is enabled (note that when this was disabled, I couldn't target the browser at all)
- Build config:
```kotlin
runIdeForUiTests {
systemProperty("robot-server.port", "8082")
systemProperty("ide.mac.message.dialogs.as.sheets", "false")
systemProperty("jb.privacy.policy.text", "")
systemProperty("jb.consents.confirmation.enabled", "false")
systemProperty("ide.mac.file.chooser.native", "false")
systemProperty("jbScreenMenuBar.enabled", "false")
systemProperty("apple.laf.useScreenMenuBar", "false")
systemProperty("idea.trust.all.projects", "true")
systemProperty("ide.show.tips.on.startup.default.value", "false")
systemProperty("ide.browser.jcef.jsQueryPoolSize", "10000")
systemProperty("ide.browser.jcef.contextMenu.devTools.enabled", "true")

intellij {
version.set("2024.1")
}
}
```

## Troubleshooting steps taken
I copied the JCefBrowserFixture class into my project and tried to comment out the `scroll()` line [here](https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-ui-test-robot/blob/master/remote-fixtures/src/main/kotlin/com/intellij/remoterobot/fixtures/JCefBrowserFixture.kt#L283), got the same "missing ; before statement" error
