💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using too short a timeout like 5 seconds may cause premature failures.

Confusing timeout with polling interval.

The timeout for the FluentWait is set to 30 seconds to wait for the condition.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Setting polling interval too high causes slow tests.

Using polling interval larger than timeout.

The polling interval is set to 2 seconds to check the condition repeatedly every 2 seconds.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the code to ignore NoSuchElementException during the wait.

Selenium Python

wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 30, ignored_exceptions=[[1]])

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

ANoSuchElementException

BTimeoutException

CElementNotVisibleException

DStaleElementReferenceException

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Ignoring the wrong exception causes the wait to fail immediately.

Not ignoring any exception causes test flakiness.

Ignoring NoSuchElementException allows the wait to continue polling if the element is not found yet.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to create a FluentWait that waits 20 seconds and polls every 1 second.

Selenium Python

wait = WebDriverWait(driver, [1], poll_frequency=[2])

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Setting polling interval longer than timeout.

Using very short polling intervals causing performance issues.

The wait is set to timeout after 20 seconds and polls every 1 second for the condition.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to create a FluentWait that waits 20 seconds, polls every 2 seconds, and ignores StaleElementReferenceException.

Selenium Python

wait = WebDriverWait(driver, [1], poll_frequency=[2], ignored_exceptions=[[3]])

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Ignoring the wrong exception.

Setting polling interval equal or longer than timeout.

The wait is set to 20 seconds timeout, polls every 2 seconds, and ignores stale element exceptions during polling.
