Handling Selenium Exceptions

Here, are some important standard using which you can handle Exceptions in Selenium WebDriver:

Try-catch: This method can catch Exceptions, which uses a combination of the try and catch keywords. Try command indicates the start of the block, and Catch is placed at the end of the try block, which helps to resolve the Exception.

from selenium.common.exceptions import TimeoutException
try:
    element = WebDriverWait(driver, 2).until(
            EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, linkAddress))
    )
except TimeoutException as ex:
    print(ex.message)

OR

import selenium
try:
    element = WebDriverWait(driver, 2).until(
            EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, linkAddress))
    )
except selenium.common.exceptions.TimeoutException as ex:
    print(ex.message)
