Use `try...except` blocks to gracefully handle exceptions related to element location. Specifically catch `NoSuchElementException` and `TimeoutException`. Inside the `except` block, log the error, take a screenshot, and potentially retry the operation or move on to the next step. This prevents your entire test from failing due to a transient issue with element availability.
