Multiple Capybara wait times?

May 2, 2023 by Tarik

You can use using_wait_time(seconds) method like:

using_wait_time 3 do
  expect(page).to have_text 'Lorem ipsum'
end

or :wait option (that appeared in Capybara 2.1).

Note that :wait option was supported only by find method in Capybara 2.1.

Support for :wait option in matchers (i.e. has_x? and have_x methods) has been added in Capybara 2.2:

expect(page).to have_text('Lorem ipsum', wait: 3)
