Same script, it runs perfectly sometimes and sometimes not

[starbaek]

Same script, it runs perfectly sometimes and sometimes not. This is Java script. Has anyone experienced same behavior?

Thank you.

Hey there
That’s a fairly broad question.
Having your environment info, server logs and or desired capabilities would help tremendously.

A big reason for flakiness stems from delays in the network, os, or elsewhere.
It’s best to take the time to understand and implement explicit waits in your script. There’s quite a few posts in this forum. This one may help get you started:

How do i wait for element on screen to be displayed? (python)

in ruby I use wait { button_exact('my_button').click } Its ugly, but you can also use a while and change the count limit and sleep, like count = 0 while buttons('my_button').size == 0 and count < 10 do sleep 0.5 count += 1 end

Best of luck
