| Classification: | Bug | Reproducible: | Always |
Summary:.
SafariDriver throwing "element not visible" exception on Safari 11.0(.x) on certain elements.
Steps to Reproduce:
Using a webdriver binding of your choice (this was tested with Python's selenium 3.8.0 package), and either a local safaridriver or via a Selenium server, get the website at https://amazon.com and do a search for an element with the class name `nav-cart-icon`.
Expected Results:
Safari should find the element and return it.
Actual Results:
Getting the following traceback using the Selenium Python bindings:
Traceback (most recent call last):

raise exception_class(message, screen, stacktrace)
selenium.common.exceptions.ElementNotVisibleException: Message: An element command could not be completed because the element is not visible on the page.
There are some additional comments about window sizing in the repro script, as I've found these to not be reliable with Safari 10.1.x or 11. I just mention it because I noticed it here, although I'm not sure if it's in any way related.
This 'element not visible' error seems to be resolved in current 11.1 TP builds.
Version/Build:
11, 11.0.1, 11.0.2, 11.0.3 beta, macOS Sierra and High Sierra
