30 min Wait on a page and then perform any Operation using Selenium Webdriver

Question

Scenario: Login to an application. Perform a download operation then wait or stay on that page for 30 minutes, then again perform the download operation. Can I use implicit wait or any other option??

Answer 1

Implicit wait tells webdriver to poll the DOM for a certain amount of time when trying to find an element or elements if they are not immediately available. It won’t be helpful for current scenario.

You can use Thread.sleep or TimeUnit.sleep like

try {

     TimeUnit.MINUTES.sleep(30);

} catch (InterruptedException e) {

    //Handle exception

}
