Wait for delay in a smartphone test
Pause a smartphone test for a fixed duration, when nothing observable signals readiness: a backend job, a rate limit, an animation.
Pause the test for a fixed time. Reach for it when nothing observable signals readiness: a backend job, a rate limit, an animation you can't hook into.
If you are waiting for something to appear on the screen, use Verify element instead. It continues as soon as the condition is met instead of always burning the full delay.
