Wait for page load in Selenium

Question

How do you make Selenium 2.0 wait for the page to load?

Answer 1

How to get Selenium to wait for page load after a click provides the following interesting approach:

1. Store a reference to a WebElement from the old page.
2. Click the link.
3. Keep on invoking operations on the WebElement until StaleElementReferenceException is thrown.

Sample code:

WebElement link = ...;
link.click();
new WebDriverWait(webDriver, timeout).until((org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver input) ->
{
    try
    {
        link.isDisplayed();
        return false;
    }
    catch (StaleElementReferenceException unused)
    {
        return true;
    }
});
