  • Continuously fetches the page source and checks for DOM changes. Will be repeated every $timeout milliseconds until either the DOM does no longer change or $timeout is reached

    example
    // Wait for a stable DOM with default timeout and interval, continue test execution if it does not stabilize within timeout
await _pageIsStable();

// Wait for a stable DOM with custom timeout and default interval, continue test execution if it does not stabilize within timeout
await _pageIsStable(5000);

// Wait for a stable DOM with custom timeout and custom interval, continue test execution if it does not stabilize within timeout
await _pageIsStable(5000, 100);

// Wait for a stable DOM, stop test execution if it does not stabilize within timeout
await _assertTrue(_pageIsStable(5000, 100));

    Parameters

    • Optional timeout: undefined | number

      Maximum timout in ms to wait for DOM stabilization. Default: 2000 ms

    • Optional interval: undefined | number

      Interval between stability checks in ms. Default: 200 ms

    Returns Promise<boolean>

_rteWrite

_wait

  • _wait(millis: number, expression?: undefined | function): Promise<void>

  • Wait for a maximum of the given timeout. It's also possible to pass an expression function which will be evaluated during the waiting.
