remote webdriver: Element is not currently visible and so may not be interacted with

Question

I use JAVA + WebDriver (Thucydides) and Maven.

I'm trying to automate uploading of a file. If I launch test manually from IDE it passes, but when I launch it with Maven on Remote WebDriver the test fails halfway with the error:

net.thucydides.core.webdriver.WebdriverAssertionError: Element is not currently visible and so may   not be interacted with

The browser is FireFox.

Thanks.

Answer 1

Look at screenshot in Thucydides report. It seems that your element is really not visible.
