selenium webdriver angular chrome Java

I'm a bit lost with I'm integrating two systems and I'm working with an scenario where Selenium WebDriver struggles to scroll to elements that are deeply nested within a complex structure in my Angular 15 application when testing on Chrome 120. The elements are wrapped in multiple layers of divs and some of them only become visible after scrolling. I've tried using both `Actions` and `JavaScriptExecutor` to scroll to the elements, but it seems like the scroll doesn't trigger the visibility change correctly. Here's what I've attempted so far: 1. **Using Actions to scroll**: ```java WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id("nestedElement")); Actions actions = new Actions(driver); actions.moveToElement(element).perform(); ``` However, this doesn't seem to work as the element remains unresponsive. 2. **Using JavaScript to scroll**: ```java JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver; js.executeScript("arguments[0].scrollIntoView(true);", element); ``` This does bring the element into view, but it doesn't click it successfully afterwards, which leads to a `ElementNotInteractableException` behavior. 3. **Adding waits** before trying to interact with the element: ```java WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10); wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOf(element)); ``` Even with this, the element is still not clickable. I also checked if there are any overlays that might be blocking the click, but there don’t seem to be any. Additionally, I confirmed that the element's `display` property is not set to `none`. I'm using the following dependencies in my `pom.xml`: ```xml <dependency> <groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId> <artifactId>selenium-java</artifactId> <version>4.1.0</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId> <artifactId>selenium-chrome-driver</artifactId> <version>4.1.0</version> </dependency> ``` Any suggestions on how to work around this scenario or best practices for handling deeply nested elements in Angular applications? I’m running out of ideas and need to ensure my tests are robust and reliable.
