Hi All,
I am excepting an element which sometimes shows up and someother time doesnt and it depends on testcase. But in our code we have something like below.
Element adjustmentDetailsWindow = Manager.ActiveBrowser.Find.ById("viewDetailsContentWindow");
So problem is when window is present, we get correct results, but if window is not present, then we get an exception saying "Object Reference not set to isntance of object"
I put them in try catch block.But is there any better way to avoid exception as well when window is not present.?
Thanks,
VVP

The try/catch block is probably the best option here.
Another option is to use if/else block to check whether the element is null or not and then take some action against it.
Hope this helps.

How to find out whether element is null?
I couldn't find any options to check for null.

Just simply write:
if(element==null){}else{}Let me know if this helps.

Hi Boyan Boev,
Exception will be thrown when we try to find the element. So your code wont work.
Element e1 = Manager.ActiveBrowser.Find.ById("duplicateview");
Will throw exception if element with id "duplicateview" is not present.

Hi,
You can try the following:
Element e1 = Manager.ActiveBrowser.Find.ById("duplicateview");Assert.IsNull(e1);Regards, Ivaylo
