Awaiting for the Application

Many UI automation operations require waiting for application screens to be updated or available. Some common causes are:

• Wait for an element to appear.

• Wait for something to be visible or enabled.

• Wait for the application to respond.

Current Support

QualityMate currently solves many of these cases automatically. The following table shows the current support state for these cases:

Operation	State	Example
Control searching	✓ Supported	View.Control.Click(); View.Control.Find(selector).Click();
Busy Loaders	✓ Supported	See the BusyLoaders article.
Validations	✓ Supported	View.Control.Validate(c => c.Displayed);
set_Text Interaction for Desktop	✓ Supported	View.Control.Text = "Hello World!";
PageObject Interactions	✓ Supported	View.Focus();
Control Interactions	✓ Supported	View.Control.Click();
Sub-control access by indexers	! Pending	View.Table[i][j].Click();
Sub-control access by IEnumerable/LinQ operations	✗ Cannot Support	View.Table.Rows.First(condition).Click();

To solve not-supported cases, the Retry class can solve most cases not handled automatically by QualityMate.
