I am currently experimenting with the automation UI test framework called Nightwatch.js.
I am trying to get my test to manipulate the mouse to hover over a menu item with submenus.
It keeps failing.
I want to get it to look like this in the below screenshot:
what i want my automation script to do so that it can click on one of the submenus
Please can anybody provide recommendations or help?
The below code is my test scripts.
describe('Test for all things on the portal ui', function(){
it('Test navigation to the claims portal ui', function(browser){
let shared = browser.page.commonStuff();
shared
.navigate()
.login()
let portals = browser.page.portalsPage();
portals.expect.section('@menu').to.be.visible;
let menuSection = portals.section.menu;
menuSection.perform(function() {
const actions = this.actions({async: true});
return actions
.mouse()
.move(300,{origin : element('@menu')},94,45)
.mouse()
.pause(10000);
})
menuSection.expect.element('@admin').to.be.visible;
menuSection.expect.element('@claims').to.be.visible;
menuSection.click('@claims');
browser.end();
});
});
The execution log produces this message:

- writing an ES6 async test case? - keep in mind that commands return a Promise;
- writing unit tests? - make sure to specify "unit_tests_mode=true" in your config.
