Also imported/w3c/webdriver/tests/classic/switch_to_frame/switch.py::test_frame_id_null seems related to this. Related changed in WPT by https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D101065 (Bug 1684827 - [wdspec] Fix switch to frame tests for "no such element" error instead of "stale element reference".) > Element references are per browsing context. As such elements as found within a frame are not existent in any parent browsing context, and when retrieving these a "no such element" error has to be returned. And relevant items in the spec, showing that references are checked against the current browsing context: https://w3c.github.io/webdriver/#dfn-get-a-known-element > To get a known element given session and reference: > If not node reference is known with session, session's current browsing context, and reference return error with error code no such element. > <snip> https://w3c.github.io/webdriver/#dfn-node-reference-is-known > A node reference is known given session, browsing context, and reference if the following steps return true: > Let navigable be browsing context's active document's node navigable. > Let navigable seen nodes map be session's navigable seen nodes map. > If navigable seen nodes map contains navigable and navigable seen nodes map[navigable] contains reference, return true, otherwise return false.
