HTML unit driver with selenium not click the button

Question

I want to click a element with onclick tag in html unit driver. But it didn't work.

I tried following method.

click method;

public HtmlUnitDriver driver = new HtmlUnitDriver(BrowserVersion.CHROME, true); driver.get(appURL); WebElement dripBoxbutton = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//img[@class='idp-image']/..")); dripBoxbutton.click();
Submit method;
```
public HtmlUnitDriver driver = new HtmlUnitDriver(BrowserVersion.CHROME, true);
driver.get(appURL);
        WebElement dripBoxbutton = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//img[@class='idp-image']/.."));
                dripBoxbutton.submit();
```
Error when using submit button:

Response message: javax.script.ScriptException: Sourced file: inline evaluation of: import org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org. . . .

How to find a way to click the button in Html unit driver.

The error you're getting indicates a syntax problem, you can get more informative stacktrace by putting your code into try block like:

try {
    //your code here
}
catch (Throwable ex) {
    log.error("Failure in script", ex);
}

This way you will be able to see the root cause of your problem in jmeter.log file.

In particular your case my expectation is that you're using some function which is not supported by Beanshell language. You can try switching to Groovy - most probably it will automatically resolve your issue:

Moreover, according to JMeter Best Practices you should be using Groovy for any scripting tasks in JMeter mainly because Groovy has better performance than other JMeter scripting options.
