How to make a button press on a point (x, y) in QWidget

AmrCoder

I am using QWebEngineView to make a web view to my project so first I add a widget in the UI form and promoted it to QWebEngineView it works fine now I want to make a button press inside this widget on a point x,y (which is a button inside the website viewed in the widget)
so I make a keypress when I press on S from the keyboard it save the point of the mouse hover inside this widget (I hover exactly on the button inside the website)
I use this code to save the points

bool MainWindow::eventFilter(QObject *watched, QEvent *event)
{
    if (event->type() == QEvent::KeyPress)
    {
        QKeyEvent *keyEvent = static_cast<QKeyEvent *>(event);
        if(keyEvent->key() == Qt::Key_S) {
            p = ui->widget->mapFromGlobal(QCursor::pos()); //QPoint varible I use it to save the x,y inside the widget
            qDebug() << "point inside the widget = " << p.x() << " " << p.y();
        }
    }
    return QObject::eventFilter(watched, event);
}

then I have button when i press it should make a button press inside the QWebEngineView widget I use this code inside my button

QTest::mouseClick(ui->widget, Qt::LeftButton, Qt::KeyboardModifier::NoModifier, p);
//p  saved the location of the button in the webview widget

but it didn't press that button or make this button press ? so what is the problem of my code which make it not press on the button inside the webview

Hi, the QWebEngineView doesn't like mouse events, instead we have to find the first child widget inside it, here's some code to try before QTest::mouseClick():

// find the kid inside QWebEngineView that will accept mouse events
QWidget* childThatAcceptsInput = nullptr;
for (auto w : ui->widget->children())
{
    QWidget* child = qobject_cast<QWidget*>(w);
    if (child)
    {
        childThatAcceptsInput = child;
        break;
    }
}

// ok, mouseClick the kid
QTest::mouseClick(childThatAcceptsInput, Qt::LeftButton, Qt::KeyboardModifier::NoModifier, p);
