The method implicitlywait(long,timeunit) from the type WebDriver.timeout is deprecated/ selenium

 In the context of selenium, if you want to get rid of the error of the method implicitlywait(long,timeunit) from the type WebDriver.timeout is deprecated then you should use an alternative approach to handle the wait in selenium WebDriver script. Instead of using implicit waits, you are recommended to use explicit waits which can provide more control and flexibility in the task of handling wait Conditions. It can allow you to wait for specific conditions to be met before proceeding with the test execution.

Here is an example given of how you can use the explicit wait with Selenium WebDriver in Java programming language:-

Import org.openqa.selenium.By;

Import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

Import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

Import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;

Import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;

Import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;

Public class ExplicitWaitExample {

    Public static void main(String[] args) {

        // Set the path to the ChromeDriver executable

        System.setProperty(“webdriver.chrome.driver”, “path_to_chromedriver”);

        // Initialize the WebDriver

        WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

        // Navigate to the webpage

        Driver.get(https://example.com);

        // Explicit wait for an element to be clickable

        WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);

        WebElement element = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(By.id(“elementId”)));

        // Perform actions on the element after it becomes clickable

        Element.click();

        // Close the WebDriver

        Driver.quit();

    }

}

Here is the example given in python programming language:-

From selenium import webdriver

From selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

From selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait

From selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

# Set the path to the ChromeDriver executable

Chrome_driver_path = “path_to_chromedriver”

# Initialize the WebDriver

Driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=chrome_driver_path)

# Navigate to the webpage

Driver.get(https://example.com)

# Explicit wait for an element to be clickable

Wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10)

Element = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.ID, “elementId”)))

# Perform actions on the element after it becomes clickable

Element.click()

# Close the WebDriver

Driver.quit()

Here are the example given by using the HTML:-

   

    Explicit Wait Example

    Click Me

    [removed]

        Document.addEventListener(“DOMContentLoaded”, function() {

            // Function to perform actions after element is clickable

            Function performActions() {

                Alert(“Button clicked!”);

                // Add more actions here as needed

            }

            // Explicit wait function

            Function explicitWait(elementId, timeout, callback) {

                Var interval = setInterval(function() {

                    Var element = document.getElementById(elementId);

                    If (element && element.offsetParent !== null) {

                        clearInterval(interval);

                        callback(element);

                    }

                }, timeout);

            }            // Call explicit wait function to wait for button to be clickable

            explicitWait(“clickButton”, 1000, function(element) {                element.addEventListener(“click”, performActions);

            });

        });
