    Hi TestQA1 

     

    If the object can't be found it may be linked to the criteria in the name mapping or the values you have defined in the wait property. 

     

    The idea of the wait property is to wait until that property value equals the specified value or until a specified time limit elapses rather than a static wait time every time. 

     

    Typically this is linked to the Auto-wait time out which can be extended. 

     

    Alternatively you can add an explicit time limit just for that wait operation 

     

    For example

     

    Aliases.browser.pageSignUpLoginForm.buttonLogIn.WaitProperty("enabled", "true", 20);

     

    Delays are just a short term way of figuring out whether you need to add in wait times or not.
