I’m trying to build my first test with selenium and got a problem.

I’m searching for a element, no problem. I can click on it, get the
text in the element… every thing works fine.
But double click on the element just doesn’t work. Selenium
clicks in the wrong location. I made a screenshot of this situation:

Screenshot

To find the row i use xpath and search for the text in the cell, but this text is unique(I checked it)

private readonly string _identityPath = ".//td[.= 'All Employees']";

...

mainPage.FindElement(By.XPath(_identityPath)).Click(); //Works(dotted box)

Actions builder = new Actions(mainPage);

IAction doubleClick = builder.DoubleClick(mainPage.FindElement(By.XPath(_identityPath))).Build();
doubleClick.Perform(); //wrong location/element

/*
Actions action = new Actions(mainPage);
action.DoubleClick(mainPage.FindElement(By.XPath(_identityPath))); 
action.Perform(); *///wrong location/element

This page is in an iframe and the grid is a dojo component… maybe the problem
comes from there. Any ideas whats wrong? I have no idea where this is coming from. :/

    It is common issue that Actions builder does not work.
    Using JavaScript should help – find answer in this thread:
