Root causes — by probability
1
Client-side validation not executing
JS validation function may not be bound to the submit event, or has a runtime error that silently prevents execution. The form submits without triggering any validation check.
2
Validation logic bug
Password regex or condition may be incorrectly evaluating abcdefg as valid — possibly a flawed check for special chars, capitals, or numerics.
3
DOM element rendering issue
Error message container may exist in the DOM but be hidden via display:none, visibility:hidden, or opacity:0. Test reads the element but gets empty text.
4
Selector mismatch
Test may be targeting the wrong element ID or class — the app may have changed the error container's selector since the test was written.

Debugging steps
1
Check browser console for JS errors during form submission
2
Inspect validation function — confirm it's bound to the submit event
3
Verify error message element in DevTools — present but hidden?
4
Manually test with the same invalid password outside automation
5
Check if validation is async — test may need an explicit wait

Most probable cause
Client-side validation is not triggering — the form submits without executing the password complexity check, most likely due to a JavaScript event binding issue or the validation function not being called on the submit event.
