Element is not clickable - Error Getting while running Selenium testcases

Question

I am getting following error while running selenium testcases. Using the versions firefox 45 and selenium-server-standalone 2.52.

org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: Element is not clickable at point (62, 13.333328247070312). Other element would receive the click:

What's the code generating the error? It looks like you have a click attempted before the element is ready for it? — Dave

You should try using JavascriptExecutor

 WebElement el = driver.findElement....;
 JavascriptExecutor executor = (JavascriptExecutor)driver
 executor.executeScript("arguments[0].click()", el);

Hope it will help you to perform click...:)

JavascriptExecutor click is an good option to avoid element is not clickable at point (xx,yy). Other element would receive the click.

ANother alternate that you can use is explicit wait for presence of that element

Possible solutions can be ..

1)Try to maximize the browser when you are working with resolutions greater than 1024x768. 
             driver.manage().window().maximize();
2) Using  Actions Class
             WebElement element = driver.findElement(By("element"));
             Actions action = new Actions(driver);
             action.moveToElement(element).click().perform();
3) using JavaScriptExecutor
             WebElement el = driver.findElement(By("element"));
             JavascriptExecutor executor = (JavascriptExecutor)driver
             executor.executeScript("arguments[0].click()", el);
