How do I use Watir::Waiter::wait_until to force Chrome to wait?

Question

I\'m trying to tell my watir script to wait for an ajax-injected login box to open up. I am using watir-webdriver, and testing in Chrome. I cannot get wait_until

Answer 1

Do this first:

require "watir-webdriver/wait"

Then try these:

1

Watir::Wait.until { ... }

2

browser.text_field(:id => 'username').when_present.set("name")

3

browser.text_field(:id => 'username').wait_until_present

Note that "present" here means "the element both exists and is visible".
