implicit wait example in selenium java

Example 1: selenium wait seconds

driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

Example 2: implicit wait vs explicit wait

In Implicit wait, if WebDriver is not able to
locate an element, it will wait for a specified
amount of time for the element to appear, 
before throwing an exception.

Explicit wait is a type of wait , which is used to
stop the execution till a specific condition is true;
We use WebDriverWait and ExpectedCondition classes of
Selenium web driver to implement explicit wait.
Implicit wait is general, explicit wait is applied
for a particular instance only.



WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable(txtFirstname));
