my code snippet :

In tried both : none of them working

public void waitForElementToBeClickable(WebElement ele) throws InterruptedException {

	try {
		WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, Duration.ofSeconds(20));
		wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(ele));
		

		

	} catch (Throwable e) {
		System.out.println("Unable to wait and click on element, Exception: " + e.getMessage());

	}

}

Also :

public WebElement waitForElementToBeClickable(WebElement ele) throws InterruptedException {

	try {
	
		WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, Duration.ofSeconds(20));
		wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(ele));
		return ele;

		System.out.println("*******************************abc*******************");

	return ele;

5 sec you calling forever?

It is not clear what wrong? You cant find element? You wait more then configured 20sec?

Dutta · November 23, 2023, 9:25pm

when element is not available its running forever.
It should wait for 20 sec and after that it should fail the testcase.
right now it not failing, its keep running and try to find same element

This is Selenium functionality, not Appium. Appium just search.
