I have faced this issue earlier. What I could understand is it could be due to the network delays involved in loading the page sometimes. There are two ways to avoid this based on my understanding. 1) Dynamic sleep: Something along the lines of this : def sleep_while_id_not_present(element_id, print_string) while !@browser.element(id: element_id).present? do puts "sleeping 1 sec, whilst #{print_string}" sleep 1 end end Although Beware that this could cause race issues of its own. Be careful when using this. 2) You could get away using fire_event as it doesn't await confirmation. read here: fire_event <https://www.rubydoc.info/gems/watir-webdriver/0.9.9/Watir%2FElement:fire_event> Hope this helps!
