.moveToElement() Suggest edits


Move the mouse by an offset of the specified element. If an element is provided but no offset, the mouse will be moved to the center of the element. If the element is not visible, it will be scrolled into view.

moveToElement() will automatically wait for the element to be present (until the specified timeout). If the element is not found, an error is thrown which will cause the test to fail. Starting with v1.2 you can suppress element not found errors by specifying the suppressNotFoundErrors option.

Usage

.moveToElement(selector, xoffset, yoffset, [callback])
.moveToElement(using, selector, xoffset, yoffset, [callback])
