Selenium Waitforelement

Selenium waitForElement

From the Selenium Documentation PDF :

import contextlib
import selenium.webdriver as webdriver
import selenium.webdriver.support.ui as ui

with contextlib.closing(webdriver.Firefox()) as driver:
    driver.get('http://www.google.com')
    wait = ui.WebDriverWait(driver,10)
    # Do not call `implicitly_wait` if using `WebDriverWait`.
    #     It magnifies the timeout.
    # driver.implicitly_wait(10)  
    inputElement=driver.find_element_by_name('q')
    inputElement.send_keys('Cheese!')
    inputElement.submit()
    print(driver.title)

    wait.until(lambda driver: driver.title.lower().startswith('cheese!'))
    print(driver.title)

    # This raises
    #     selenium.common.exceptions.TimeoutException: Message: None
    #     after 10 seconds
    wait.until(lambda driver: driver.find_element_by_id('someId'))
    print(driver.title)

WaitForElement in Selenium WebDriver?

I have used this similar code in my project and it works for me.

Selenium WaitForElement in c# throws ElementNotVisibleException

ExpectedConditions.ElementExists(); is waiting for the element to exists in the DOM . To make sure the element is visible in the website use ExpectedConditions.ElementIsVisible()

wait.Until(ExpectedConditions.ElementIsVisible(selector));

As a side not, if wait.Until condition doesn't met it throws WebDriverTimeoutException, not NoSuchElementException.

WebDriver - wait for element using Java

This is how I do it in my code.

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(webDriver, timeoutInSeconds);
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.id<locator>));

or

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.id<locator>));

to be precise.

See also:

• org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions for similar shortcuts for various wait scenarios.
• org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait for its various constructors.

Selenium wait for element to reload

I don't know about a hook; Selenium seems to implement these waits with "polling" rather than hooks.

So, can you wait on a condition, the condition being that the list contains the expected new number of comments?

Is there a WaitForText or WaitForElement method in Selenium 2?

I am using this code in Java - it checks for 3 seconds (configurable) for specified element:

 WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, /*seconds=*/3);
    elementOfPage = wait.until(presenceOfElementLocated(By.id("id_of_element")));

 Function<WebDriver, WebElement> presenceOfElementLocated(final By locator) {
  return new Function<WebDriver, WebElement>() {
        public WebElement apply(WebDriver driver) {
            return driver.findElement(locator);
        }
    };
}
