Fix ElementClickInterceptedException
in Selenium
✅ Solution
The ElementClickInterceptedException usually occurs when another element obscures the target element, preventing Selenium from clicking it. To resolve this, you can try scrolling the target element into view using JavaScriptExecutor (`arguments[0].scrollIntoView(true);`) before clicking, or explicitly wait for the intercepting element to disappear or become clickable. Alternatively, you can try using JavaScript to directly click the element (`arguments[0].click();`) which bypasses Selenium's visibility checks.
