In this tutorial, we are going to explain how to wait for page to load/ready in selenium webdriver. Generally selenium WebDriver handles web page loading or wait for page to load by It self. But sometime web pages are taking more time to load page, due to that driver script unable to find specified element in web page and that results in issue. So in that case selenium webdriver will throws exception message in console and stop the script execution. Here in this example we are using javascript executor to overcome page load issue and javascript executor also provides predefined function, that helps to check page load status.
Lets see the complete source code, where we are using javascript executor to check page load status.
This is all about check or wait for page to load In selenium webdriver. Thank you for reading this article, and if you have any problem, have a another better useful solution about this article, please write message in the comment section.
Javascript executor example to check page loading status :
JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor)driver; js.executeScript("return document.readyState").toString().equals("complete");
Lets see the complete source code, where we are using javascript executor to check page load status.
- checkPageIsReady() method checks page load status. if page is loaded successfully within specified time that is 25 seconds, then it will display message "Page Is loaded." in console.

// To check page ready state.
ReplyDeleteif (js.executeScript("return document.readyState").toString().equals("complete")) {
break;
}
this should be inside the for loop
