Button click was not performed even though element was found

[meriah]

<p>I'm trying to click below button.</p>
<pre><code><button class="MuiButtonBase-root MuiButton-root jss47 jss58 MuiButton-contained jss48 jss59 MuiButton-containedPrimary MuiButton-disableElevation" tabindex="0" type="button">
<span class="MuiButton-label jss49 jss60">CONTINUE</span>
</button>

I used below code to click it.

WebElement continueButton = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//span[text()='CONTINUE']"));
Assert.assertTrue(continueButton.isDisplayed());
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
js.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", continueButton);

Even though no exception given button was not clicked and script is not executed completely.

Can someone give me a solution ?

Issue resolved after adding a button availability check and increasing wait time.

WebElement continueBtn = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//span[text()='CONTINUE']"));
    if(continueBtn.isDisplayed()) {
        
        try {
            Thread.sleep(8000);
            System.out.println("Waiting time 6s");
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        js.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", continueBtn);
    
    }else {
        System.out.println("Button not found");
    }
