WebElement excpected conditions

Niobium make easier the waiting of expected conditions on a WebElement.

Wait until element is displayed and enabled

You just have to call the wait() function on a WebElement.

    driver.find_element(By.ID, "myelt").wait()

By default, the timeout is the same the implicitly_wait timeout.

Wait using a specific timeout

You can specify the maximum time to wait using the timeout argument (in seconds).

    driver.find_element(By.ID, "myelt").wait(timeout=5)

Choose expected conditions to wait

You can choose which expected conditions to wait.

Two expected conditions are available:

• displayed
• enabled

If value is None, the expected condition is not checked.

    driver.find_element(By.ID, "myelt").wait(displayed=False,  enabled=False)

    driver.find_element(By.ID, "myelt").wait(enabled=False)

Chain action after wait()

You can chain all available actions after the wait.

    driver.find_element(By.ID, "myelt").wait(timeout=5).click()

It's usefull when you have to wait until an element is visible before to click on it.
