driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
Ques.40. What is an explicit wait in selenium?
Ans. An explicit wait is a type of wait which is applied to a particular web element untill the expected condition specified is met.
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
WebElement element = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.id("elementId")));
Ques.41. What are some expected conditions that can be used in Explicit waits?
Ans. Some of the commonly used expected conditions of an element that can be used with expicit waits are-
