[🐛 Bug]: Selenium terminates the execution without waiting for provided time when using WebDriverWait with ExpectedConditions

pranesh517 commented 1 year ago

What happened?

With WebDriverWait provided for particular time with ExpectedConditions.visibilityOf(WebElement), execution gets terminated with org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException: no such element quickly without waiting for provided time out.

How can we reproduce the issue?

@Test
    public void TC001() {
        WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
        driver.get("https://opensource-demo.orangehrmlive.com/web/index.php/auth/login");
        driver.manage().window().maximize();

        driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("[name='username']")).sendKeys("Admin");
        driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("[type='password']")).sendKeys("admin123");
        driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("[type='submit']")).click();

        WebDriverWait webDriverWait = new WebDriverWait(driver, Duration.ofSeconds(20));
        webDriverWait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOf(
                driver.findElement(By.cssSelector(".oxd-userdropdown-tab"))
        ));

        driver.quit();
    }

Relevant log output

That expected condition assumes that the element is locatable on the page and is just not yet displayed.

You can fix by using just the locator: visibilityOfElementLocated(By.cssSelector(".oxd-userdropdown-tab")) or, my recommendation, avoid ExpectedConditions entirely and use a lambda with exactly what you want to wait for:

webDriverWait.until(d -> driver.findElement(By.cssSelector(".oxd-userdropdown-tab")).isDisplayed());

With ExpectedConditions class the element is located before until() is called, with the lambda, it is executed inside that context where the NoSuchElementException gets caught and retried
