What are some examples of using wait in Appium?

In Appium, you can use different wait strategies like implicit wait, explicit wait, and fluent wait. Would you like examples of each?

Yes, please provide an example of explicit wait.

Sure! Here's an example of explicit wait in Appium:

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
WebElement element = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.id("element_id")));

This waits up to 10 seconds for the element to be visible.

What about implicit wait?

Implicit wait is set for the entire duration of the WebDriver session. Here's how you can set it:

driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

This will wait up to 10 seconds for elements to appear before throwing a NoSuchElementException.

Can you explain fluent wait?

Fluent wait allows you to define the polling frequency and the maximum wait time. Here's an example:

Wait<WebDriver> wait = new FluentWait<>(driver)
    .withTimeout(Duration.ofSeconds(30))
    .pollingEvery(Duration.ofSeconds(5))
    .ignoring(NoSuchElementException.class);

WebElement element = wait.until(driver -> driver.findElement(By.id("element_id")));

This will check for the element every 5 seconds until it is found or the timeout is reached.
