In case somebody is interested, I found a workaround on selenium mailing
list. The trick is to execute some JavaScript that does what is needed,
in my case just shows the element.
By locator = By.xpath("//a[contains(@href, '" + name
+ "')]/ancestor::sp...@class='blog-category-level']"
+ "//sp...@class='blog-category-tools']");
WebElement category = getDriver().findElement(locator);
if (getDriver() instanceof JavascriptExecutor) {
JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) getDriver();
// instead of hovering, just show the toolbox
js.executeScript("arguments[0].style.visibility='visible'",
category);
}
