I have jsf portlet in liferay I have written a selenium test the test is getting passed but the submit button is not working below code:

Selenium code

 this.driver.get(this.baseUrl);
        this.login();
        this.driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
        this.findElementById("category_items").sendKeys("Aplication Complaint");
        System.out.println("----clicked---");
        this.findElementById("subject_items").sendKeys("test");

        this.findElementById("description").sendKeys("ATFDC.Application.Complaint");
        this.findElementById("affected_assets").sendKeys("LDA 13");
        this.findElementById("calendar_date_occured").sendKeys("2013/08/04 19:07");
        this.findElementById("severity_list").sendKeys("All sites down");
        this.findElementById("submit_button").click();
        this.waitUntilAjaxRequestCompletes();
        System.out.println("submit clicked");

XHTML code snippet:

        <h:panelGroup id="severity_panel_group" styleClass="atf-form-line" layout="block"
            rendered="#{createTicketBaseBean.selectMenus.renderSeverityMenu}"
            style= "#{createTicketBaseBean.selectMenus.showSeverityMenu ? '' : 'display:none'}">
            <atf:selectOneInput componentId="severity_list"
                labelText="#{I18N['key_label_severity']}"
                tooltipText="#{I18N['key_tooltip_severity']}"
                value="#{createTicketBaseBean.ticketModel.severity}">
                <f:selectItems value="#{createTicketBaseBean.selectMenus.severityItems}" />
            </atf:selectOneInput>
        </h:panelGroup>


            <h:panelGroup id="panel_separator" layout="block" styleClass="atf-inline-block atf-w25p atf-vertical-align-top">
                <h:outputText value="#{I18N['key_value_mandatory']}" styleClass="atf-text-not-required" />
            </h:panelGroup>
            <h:panelGroup id="panel_commands" layout="block" styleClass="atf-inline-block atf-w70p">
                <p:commandButton value="#{I18N['key_button_submit_ticket']}"
                    title="#{I18N['key_button_submit_ticket']}" actionListener="#{createTicketBaseBean.createTicketData}"
                    action="#{createTicketBaseBean.createTicket}"
                    styleClass="atf-right" process="@form" update="@form" id="submit_button">
                </p:commandButton>

                <p:commandButton value="#{I18N['key_button_clear']}"
                    title="#{I18N['key_button_clear']}"
                    actionListener="#{createTicketBaseBean.clearProperties}"
                    styleClass="atf-left" global="true"  process="@this" update="@form" immediate="true">
                </p:commandButton>
            </h:panelGroup>
        </h:panelGroup>

The output prints submit clicked

You have to find a tag that appears after clicking on the submit button. You have to wait till that tag appears.

public boolean waitForElement(WebElement ele, String xpath, int seconds) throws InterruptedException{
    //returns true if the xpath appears in the webElement within the time
    //false when timed out
    int t=0;
    while(t<seconds*10){
        if(ele.findElements(By.xpath(xpath)).size()>0)
            return true;
        else{
            Thread.sleep(100);
            t++;
            continue;
        }
    }       
    System.out.println("waited for "+seconds+"seconds. But couldn't find "+xpath+ " in the element specified");
    return false;
}
