Implicitly Wait v/s Explicit Wait in Selenium WebDriver || Best way to Explain - Interview Question

[@monzuruljhoney001]

Though I'm working with Python Selenium, I'm watching your tutorials. I am getting clear picture and able to work with python .I'm not facing any issue. Thanks for such beautiful explanations

[@mohdsuhail7058]

Hats off Naveen! You are awesome. You even don't know how much help you are providing by sharing such great videos.

[@tejaswiniurs5870]

Just loving the way you are explaining. I am learning every concept of Selenium only from your channel. Your channel is perfect to learn everything about Selenium. Thanks for making such an awesome videos.

[@naveenautomationlabs]

Thanks and welcome

[@Ranjan_Pradhan]

the way you explain how to read a line of code, makes my all doubt clear! i was using implicit wait in 2 classes multiple times as i was thinking, its applicable within a block only! so i was using it in each try catch block and each methods, each if else block and in each classes!

[@sharadaa8033]

Thank You So Much Naveen , previously i was confusing with these waits but Really got cleared with your Video, which is very useful for Interview Thanks a lot ...

[@drtareq9256]

really tremendous explanation it will be helpful for anyone who worked with selenium java

[@nir12344]

Explaination was very helpful. Gave clear picture when to go for implicit wait and explicit wait. Thank you

[@mosamichaudhari1643]

whats a great explanation..I never had to listen anywhere..thank u Naveen...

[@omkarpotdar2763]

Thank you so very much Naveen. Your concepts is so clear so no need to refer any other videos or tutorials.

[@adithygunji1645]

Excellent sir Really, I have a Confusion from last 1.5 years Now its Clear and My sincere Request is Can you Explain Fluent wait and Remaining Also.

[@rajagopalachary6819]

Superb teaching, a layman can understand

[@amolwalunjkar7612]

Cleared all doubts.. Very well explained.. Thank you naveen.

[@prasadsardesai]

I really like the way you explain any concept... I am sharing your channel with so many friends. Thanks for all Naveen 🙏

[@bhushanpatil2704]

Brilliant explanation ..Navin..🙏

[@madhavigunnala3479]

Best & clear explanation Naveen. thank you so much!

[@shitaljoshi1007]

Thank you so much Naveen for the very nice explanation on explicitly and implicitly waits.

[@subodhpatil8157]

Hi Naveen....one doubt i have read somewhere that explicit wait check every 500 milliseconds for the element and if found then exist....but what about implicit wait what is the time interval it checks for the condition

[@revamishra877]

Really like your concept very simple and precise. love the way you explained

[@mamthayj2197]

This video is much much helpful to understand the difference between implicit and explicit wait.

[@adel198125]

Well explained! Thank you!

[@poonamsharma7026]

Wonderful explanation, Thanks Naveen.

[@paumalhotra]

Brilliant explanation Naveen. Thanks a ton!

[@kishorekumar3620]

So the only differences between explicit and implicit waits 1) we can change time outs for different elements in explicit where as in implicit we cant 2) implicit wait is written once and it's applicable for all the elements and where as for explicit wait we need to write wait for every element Apart from this if any other differences pls let me know

[@akankshaaishwarya5170]

Good explanation 👏👌👍👍

[@prathameshsalunkhe9358]

Great Explaination

[@chaitanyakrishna5420]

Thanks naveen,have got more clarity on this.

[@naveenautomationlabs]

Thanks

[@shrutitiwari8921]

Dynamic wait concept is excellent

[@konarkism]

Why nobody is asking basic difference between these two waits. I'm asking in general and will really appreciate the correct and well explained answer. If I'm using implicit wait and let's say I'm giving 1000 seconds of time.. why would anyone even need explicit wait , because all the expected conditions will ofcoursed be met by this huge amount of time.. and since implicit wait is dynamic wait it will ignore rest of time if elements appear before that time. Why even explicit wait was introduced in selenium??

[@konarkism]

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think polling time plays a key factor here that is 500 ms. so implicit wait waits for atleast 500 ms for each elements in the script.thus it makes execution comparatively slower.

[@AmitPal-oy4sh]

Hey Naveen, you missed the exception part of both of wait otherwise lecture was too good and nice explaination

[@deepankarish]

One question ...if the element is not yet loaded..and as Yu are trying findelement before explicit wait ..it would simply throw nosuchelement exception...in your case FB is loading faster that's why you are not getting the exeption... Instead of passing webelement you should pass By and then findelement inside until...

[@daisyd4172]

Cool🔥.... but ,Which type of wait is better to use for page load: pageLoadTimeout or WebDriverWait ?

[@vandnauppal2112]

Hi Naveen, Good Explanation! Thanks for making the wait concept quite clear. Can you please explain the fluent wait with example?

[@truptifating3186]

Hi Naveen....your all the videos are so helpful. Thank you very much 🙏 Will you please also make a video on Fluent wait

[@ankdy7]

If we have a implicit wait of 20 sec for firstname, and selenium is finding it in 5 secs, so next 15 secs is ignored, then again when we come across explicit wait of 10 secs, what will be the scenario, as the element is already found within the span of implicit wait, so will the entire time of explicit wait be skipped?

[@raghunathrajavelu9243]

Great Explanation sir !! Kudoos to you

[@jitendrasawant3872]

Hi Naveen I am new in selenium, i tried your code but i have one error in send key method you told us no need to provide reference for WebDriverWait but i try this code it provide me error if i not use reference of WebDriverWait but when i use reference then my code perfectly run. please check following error and please let me know the answer. The method until(ExpectedCondition) is undefined for the type SyncchronizationInSelenium.

[@santhoshk8095]

best explaination Sir..

[@ravitejasaladi4457]

The wait is used to find the element but the static methods you have created are used to pass the values. Can you explain why we need to pass the values using custom methods once the elements are found out ?

[@bkumarj6450]

Mind blowing Naveen. Could you please please answer?? My scripts are taking pretty much time to finish as there is more waits for elements so could you please suggest the best waits for the scripts??

[@sumitsaha9782]

Hi Naveen, did you ever encountered a situation whereby you had to write custom ExpectedConditions in WebDriverWait. If yes, can you help me understand in which situations do we go for such ?

[@manjunathk525]

super explanation boss

[@har_shi_tha]

Thanks for these information

[@nancybhardwaj3895]

Awesome 👍

[@giribdt123]

Hi Naveen, my doubt is, if we give implicit wait for 20 sec or 100 sec, does it make any difference if elements are loaded with in 2 sec or 3 sec, as it ignores rest of the seconds. Will it affect the performance if both implicit and explicit are given and the element is loaded within 2 to 3 sec.

[@gayathri77]

Just thought of answering your question. All timeouts in Selenium are dynamic waits. once the element is found or an expected condition is satisfied, it moves on to the next instruction.

[@waleraji4517]

thanks for the video....Interesting thou

[@MohdFaisal-ml9qs]

Thanks. Very well explained

[@prakruthis1664]

clear explanation. thankyou

[@letuslearnscience-piyushku284]

very nice explanation

[@bheemshankar_pk]

such a awesome explanation

[@AVIRONKVLOGS]

If there is a implicit wait with 5 sec, and also there is 10 sec for explicit wait for a particular element, now if the element got found in 6 sec, it will move to the next code/step... Will driver wait for another 9 sec or move forward? If not then how this is a disadvantage to use explicit wait and implicit wait together to achieve 100% synchronization?

[@priyankachakrabarty456]

Hello Naveen, can you plz explain what is the difference between Fluent wait and WebDriver Wait?

[@sathya-enjoy_lifetothefullest]

Amazing explanation Naveen

[@rsd7274]

Hi Naveen, Getting WebDriverWait is deprecated error while creating sendKeys method. Please help. Thanks.

[@sifat19]

simply awesome man!

[@cutekunsh1883]

very helpful thanks :)

[@4SONGSME]

Very helpful tutorial.

[@sibaprasadray7530]

Hello Naveen, how do I create generic method for selecting dropdown using WebDriverWait? Kindly help.

[@jagratsahoo6885]

Thank you Naveen

[@jinalshah7023]

Thank you 👍

[@kalyanijoshi6884]

Hi Naveen Do you know any solution for timeout on recieving msg from rederer... Selenium 3;14 Chrome 68 Chrome driver 2:40/2:41 tried iE 11 win 10 I am getting this issue freuently but at different elements Tried clearing cache

[@2ndRakaah]

Thank you Sir!

[@naveenautomationlabs]

You are welcome!

[@shreetipale4952]

Best explanation sir... Tried joining telegram group but not able to join

[@sureshsubramaniyan3201]

Great

[@sravanthikadam6781]

Hi Naveen, If firstName and lastName elements are not displayed on the page, wont the line numbers #25 and #26 raise ElementNotFoundException before the sync line #39. please clarify.

[@deepankarish]

Yu are correct it would throw nosuchelement exception before it goes to the sendkeys line ....so my suggestion is Yu can create By object and call

[@ankitshrivastava9061]

Naveen please tell the difference of PageLoadTime Out and Implicitly Wait?

[@joaobaganha7099]

This prevents javascript loaders?

[@meenumangai5915]

Superb, thank you

[@Ahamad_Ali_sha]

since we already used implicit wait, what is need of using explicit wait?

[@sainiranjan40]

To be clear, they work pretty much same.

[@bhawnaarora1874]

What is difference between Page Load time out and Implicit wait ?

[@milindghag9857]

Implicit wait will be applicable for all the elements which are driver is interacting with and present in the page (it is global wait).

[@nikkm2000]

if any webpage has 50 webelements then for each webelement implict wait(suppose 10 sec provided) will be applied and total wait time will be 50 *10=500 second.

[@ramkumar2704]

Theoretically yes..but it could not happen mostly of tym... 😂 In detail manner - at a particular time selenium/java handle just single line of execution. So if we work with 1st Element, it wait for untill elements as appear/intractable upto 10 sec. On 11th sec also 1st elements is not appear/intractable,then it through the error message on 11th sec itself and execution will stop... No need to wait upto 500 sec. We have to wait until 500 sec for below scenario only If 1st element appear at exactly 10th sec. 2nd element appear at exactly 20th sec. 3rd elements appear at exactly 30th sec........ And so on 50th elements appear at exactly 500th sec. I'm sure it won't be happen for most of cases.

[@alim241081]

I got one question about implicitly wait , can we write this wait to anywhere in project or where we create driver ref (generally in base class).

[@naveenautomationlabs]

Watch the full video, you will get your answer.

[@anbunithir5354]

Thank you so much sir

[@SURAJSINGH-xv4fw]

Hi sir, Please tell how to open new tab.. I have tried keys method but it's not working..pls provide some java code for that

[@abraham2961]

Hey Naveen implicit we is also ignore if it find in 4 sec and explicit is also same then what is the main difference this 2 some confusion

[@deepankarish]

Implicit will wait till amount of secs you have given even if the element is visible or loaded in less time...but in case of explicitly wait it LL not wait till the given amount sec...it LL start next line as soon as the element is visible.

[@konarkism]

@@deepankarish No that's not correct.. implicit wait is also dynamic wait, it will ignore rest of time if element appears before and move on to next step.

[@bikashsenapati8873]

How to handle the exception: Element click intercepted

[@sachinchauhan3605]

love the explaination sir, keep going. i'm rooting for you. BTW, is there any way to contact you via Email ? please share.

[@mallidanger]

Hi Naveen, nice video. can you share / make a video on fluent Wait . Thanks in advance.

[@shanthikandasamy]

what are the exceptions that implicit wait will throw? and exceptions thrown by explicit wait please?

[@padmapabba759]

Please check out in the description box...

[@vaibhavchourasia6575]

hello naveen can you share your linkedin profile? Thanks,

[@virendrarai8341]

Hi Naveen, is there any session for fluentWait ?

[@sharatchandra6071]

Another good way to ensure proper page load is through JavaScriptExecutor public static void waitTillPageLoaded() { JavascriptExecutor jse = (JavascriptExecutor) driver; String status = "in-progress"; while (!status.equals("complete")) { try { Thread.sleep(6000); } catch (InterruptedException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } status = (String) jse.executeScript("return document.readyState"); if (status.equalsIgnoreCase("complete")) break; }
