Wait conditions

Wait conditions in Selenium are mechanisms that allow to wait for certain conditions before performing the next actions. They are used for synchronization between the test and the web application to ensure that elements or pages are fully loaded and ready for interaction. This helps to avoid errors related to elements not yet appearing on the page or not being fully loaded.

Pomcorn includes several custom waiting conditions that complement the built-in Selenium waiting list. About Selenium wait conditions you can read here.
