Action settings

Browser
See the legacy Browser reference for more information.Wait for content
Wait for Content can wait for web content to appear on a page or for a specific URL to finish loading. When it waits for web content, select a web element in the browser; the parent Action command then waits until that element is available on the page. These settings are effective only when a browser wait selection is active in the current browser. The UI shows this requirement in a note at the top of the section.- Requirement: Specifies how the command handles waiting for content to appear or for a URL to finish loading. The default is Required.
- Required: Waits for the content or URL. If the content does not appear within the configured Wait for Content Timeout, the command fails.
- Optional: Waits for the content or URL, but the parent Action command does not fail if the content does not appear within the configured Wait for Content Timeout.
- No Wait: Completes the parent Action command as soon as the content appears, without waiting for it to load fully.
- Timeout: Sets the number of seconds between completion of the action and parsing of the page. The default is 60 seconds.
- Wait for removal: Waits for the selected element to be removed from the page before continuing. This option is disabled by default.
- Wait for visibility: Waits for the selected element to become visible before continuing. This option is enabled by default.
- Wait for change: Waits for any change on the page before continuing. This option is enabled by default.
- Search All Frames: Specifies whether to wait for all page frames to finish loading.
- Default: Inherits the setting from the parent command.
- Yes: Checks the URL of all frames and monitors all web requests that load content asynchronously.
- No: Checks only the selected frames.
