Introduction to Wait Methods: The video starts by explaining the importance of wait methods in Selenium, which help manage timing issues due to web page loading and dynamic element changes.
Types of Wait Methods:
Implicit Wait: Automatically waits for a certain duration when trying to find elements if they are not immediately available.
Explicit Wait: Waits for a certain condition to occur before proceeding further in the code.
Fluent Wait: Allows for more complex configurations, specifying the maximum amount of time to wait for a condition, as well as the frequency with which to check the condition before throwing an exception.
Dynamic Wait Methods: The video emphasizes using dynamic wait methods over static ones like Thread.sleep(), which are inefficient as they pause execution for a fixed period regardless of whether the condition is met earlier.
Practical Implementation: The video demonstrates how these waits are implemented in Selenium scripts, aiding in robust and efficient test automation.
