How to wait until element is present, visible and interactable with Python Selenium?
To wait until element is present, visible and interactable with Python Selenium, we can use the wait.until method.
For instance, we write
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
#...
browser.find_element_by_css_selector(".reply-button").click()
wait = WebDriverWait(browser, 10)
email = wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, '.anonemail'))).get_attribute("value")
print(email)
to create the wait object with
wait = WebDriverWait(browser, 10)
Then we call wait.until with EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, '.anonemail')) to wait for the element with the anonemail class to be visible.
We set the timeout to 10 seconds.
Conclusion
To wait until element is present, visible and interactable with Python Selenium, we can use the wait.until method.
