Wait til an element appears in Selenium

Question

I want to wait for an element that appears on the page after the page reloads. 

I have tried the below code:

fluentWait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElement(By.id("Id"));

Here is fluentWait:

FluentWait fluentWait = new FluentWait<>(webDriver) {
    .withTimeout(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
    .pollingEvery(200, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
}

But this throws an exception such as: NoSuchElementException. How to solve this?

Answer 1

You should call ignoring with exception to ignore till the WebDriver waits:

FluentWait<WebDriver> fluentWait = new FluentWait<>(driver)
        .withTimeout(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
        .pollingEvery(200, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS)
        .ignoring(NoSuchElementException.class);

You should use the below code:

WebElement waitElement = (new WebDriverWait(driver, 10))
   .until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.id("id_1")));
