Edge WebDriver does not support completly "Displayed" status of a element

Hello, @Amrita Bhattacharjee

I did all the steps but the test still does not work, even when the element that I need is visible for me, for a javascript code as I wrote above and for all other browsers that I listed before. There is some kind of extra information that I can inform and
help you to find and solve my problem?

Also about the file upload using Edge WebDriver I did a workaround to solve temporally while the upload function was not implemented. Unfortunatelly I can't do it in a generic error like my first one, when a random element is displayed but the Edge WebDriver
says me that it's not.

 

Edge WebDriver does not support completly "Displayed" status of a element

First of all, I created the post in IE 11 because there is no option to choose Microsoft Edge In the Question form, different from the forum's filter. Also I have not found better place to do this kind of question about a product developed by Microsoft,
with a lot of technical information.

I've been working developing test on Selenium and I tried to make Edge runs in my test suit, that today runs with IE11, Chrome, FireFox and PhantonJS. Unfortunatelly, my test suit runs in all others webdriver browsers without problems but broke in Edge when
i try to check simple informations, like if an element is or not displayed.

Example: run in Edge's console the command:

$("#save").is(":visible")

It returns true.

But if I try to do something similar in Selenium it does not work. A code example what I try to do:

_driver.FindElement(By.Id("save")).Displayed;

It returns false.

Even using an explicit wait does not work, it returns a timeout error because was not able to find the displayed element:

_driver.Wait().Until(ExpectedConditions.ElementIsVisible(By.Id("save")));

It throws a timeout exception.

It makes me think that is a Microsoft Edge bug, since the documentation tell us that "Displayed" was implemented (ref here).
Im using the last Egde and his Webdriver versions, Edge 38.14393.0.0, EdgeHTML 14.14393, Webdriver Release 3.14393.

Also I read somewhere (I think StackOverflow) about a backlog item that was not implemented yet about file uploads, but as is from an unofficial information I don't if it is true. Is it really waiting to be developed to Edge WebDriver?

Thanks all.
