Study Notes
Implicit Wait
- Accepts time in seconds as a parameter
- Waits for elements to load within the set time frame before throwing a NoSuchElementException
Explicit Wait
- Waits for a specific condition to occur before proceeding with execution
- Used with ExpectedConditions to check for specific conditions
- Throws a TimeoutException if the condition is not met within the set time frame
- Should be used with a WebDriverWait and ExpectedConditions to check the condition
Fluent Wait
- Example:
Wait fluentWait = new FluentWait(driver).withTimeout(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS).pollingEvery(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS); - Maximum time frame set: 30 seconds
- Frequency set: 5 seconds
Importance of Waits
- Play a crucial role in executing tests by handling synchronization issues
- Necessary to handle page loading and element rendering times
- Help resolve synchronization issues and timeout exceptions
- Prevent NoSuchElementException and TimeoutException
Consequences
- Not using waits can lead to test failures and unreliable tests
- Setting implicit wait time frame longer than explicit wait time frame can lead to longer test execution times
- If an element is not located within the time frame defined by explicit wait, a TimeoutException is thrown
