Need to find attribute and click on it

Question

I have element newdevice, with the following attribute remove device from account.

newdevice is unique, but a lot of same attributes.

Problem that I unable to perform click button.

WebElement newdevice = driver.findElement(By.linkText(devicename));
        if (newdevice.isDisplayed() && newdevice.isEnabled()) {
            newdevice.getAttribute("remove device from account");
            Thread.sleep(3000);
            newdevice.click();
        }

So I expecting to find new element, if element is presence, then find attribute bellow element and click on it.

To click() on the element with text as remove device from account within the element newdevice you have to induce WebDriverWait for the elementToBeClickable() and you can use either of the following Locator Strategies:

• xpath 1:

  new WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("//td/strong[text()='newdevice']//following::td[3]//button[contains(@title, 'remove device')]"))).click();
  

• xpath 2:

  new WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.xpath("//td/strong[text()='newdevice']//following::td//button[@title='remove device from account']"))).click();
