Anyway to rerun failed test automatically?

Hi,

> it still reports object cannot be found after I told it to wait for the page to load

As per documentation, page.Wait() waits for the page to load. I.e. it waits until the last byte for the page request is received from the server. For usual static web pages this is enough.

The bad news is that modern dynamic web pages use a lot of scripting and data obtained from additional resources via additional requests. In the worst case, data load and subsequent rendering is implemented using lazy load technique.

The above means that in addition to wait for the page source to load, you need to wait for all scripts on the page to finish their execution (scripts often drastically change DOM structure of the page) and to wait for all additional data is loaded as well.

Exact algorithm of the wait depends on your tested application.

For example, if you know what element you will work with after page load, you may use this approach:

-- Wait for the page to load;

-- Wait for the element to appear on the page;

-- Optionally, if needed, wait until the element is populated with data;

-- Continue the test.

If you don't know what element you will work with (for example, if you need to delay until complete web page that utilizes lazy loads is loaded), the approach like this should work:

-- Wait for the page to load;

-- Wait for all scripts on the page to finish - this (usually) ensures that all external data is received and rendered;

-- Press Page Down key to scroll page one screen down. This will trigger additional data requests via lazy loads. Repeat the above step to wait until all additional data is loaded;

-- Continue pressing Page Down until some anchor element at the end of the page which is out of page viewport during data load (and thus is not visible on screen) becomes visible on screen;

-- Continue the test.
