Common Reasons
The common reasons behind facing StaleElementReferenceException are as follows:
The element has been deleted entirely.
The element is no longer attached to the DOM.
The webpage on which the element was part of has been refreshed.
The (previous) element has been deleted by a JavaScript or AjaxCall and is replaced by a (new) element with the same ID or other attributes.
Solution : If an (old) element has been replaced with new identical one, the simple strategy would be to use findElement() or findElements to look out for the element again.
