NoSuchElementError: No element found using locator: By.xpath

[vinayk335194]

i am newbie for protractor ,i could not execute element(by.xapth()) for a angular js app. please provide possible solution for this..i tried using browser.wait also but its acting in same way

browser.ignoreSynchronization = true;
browser.waitForAngular();
element(by.xpath('/html/body/rc-app-template/header/div/div/div[3]/ul/li[2]/a')).click();

[vinayk335194]

Its working fine when I use same xpath with my selenium script ..

Hi there!

Your question is better suited for StackOverflow or Gitter. Please ask a question there with the 'protractor' tag or post in the Gitter Channel to get help.

From the the getting help section of the README:

Please ask usage and debugging questions on StackOverflow (use the "protractor" tag) or in the Angular discussion group. (Please do not ask support questions here on Github.)
