copied!<p>Taking nilesh's answer a step further, you can also allow finer-tuned searches (eg, within the context of a WebElement) by using the SearchContext interface:</p> <pre class="lang-java prettyprint-override"><code>Function<SearchContext, WebElement> elementLocated(final By by) { return new Function<SearchContext, WebElement>() { public WebElement apply(SearchContext context) { return context.findElement(by); } }; } </code></pre> <p>Execution is performed by a FluentWait<SearchContext> instance (instead of WebDriverWait). Give yourself a nice programming interface by wrapping its execution and necessary exception handling in a utility method (the root of your <a href="http://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/PageObjects" rel="nofollow">PageObject</a> type hierarchy is a good spot):</p> <pre class="lang-java prettyprint-override"><code>/** * @return The element if found before timeout, otherwise null */ protected WebElement findElement(SearchContext context, By by, long timeoutSeconds, long sleepMilliseconds) { @SuppressWarnings("unchecked") FluentWait<SearchContext> wait = new FluentWait<SearchContext>(context) .withTimeout(timeoutSeconds, TimeUnit.SECONDS) .pollingEvery(sleepMilliseconds, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS) .ignoring(NotFoundException.class); WebElement element = null; try { element = wait.until(elementLocated(by)); } catch (TimeoutException te) { element = null; } return element; } /** * overloaded with defaults for convenience */ protected WebElement findElement(SearchContext context, By by) { return findElement(context, by, DEFAULT_TIMEOUT, DEFAULT_POLL_SLEEP); } static long DEFAULT_TIMEOUT = 3; // seconds static long DEFAULT_POLL_SLEEP = 500; // milliseconds </code></pre> <p>Example usage:</p> <pre class="lang-java prettyprint-override"><code>WebElement div = this.findElement(driver, By.id("resultsContainer")); if (div != null) { asyncSubmit.click(); WebElement results = this.findElement(div, By.id("results"), 30, 500); if (results == null) { // handle timeout } } </code></pre>
