Selenium explicit wait upper limit

Question

I'm using Selenium to do some automated testing in a C# app. I have a component that's not disappearing after the 90 seconds explicit wait. Is there an upper limit to the timeout:

Driver.WaitUntil(ExpectedConditions.InvisibilityOfElementLocated(By.CssSelector("section > h1 > img")), 90);

I haven't found anything indicating there's an upper limit.

Answer 1

Cannot say about explicit wait upper limit, but if you want to make it more you can put the wait in loop. So the loop will make it 90*number of loops.

Answer 2

WebDriverWait constructor is WebDriverWait(IWebDriver, TimeSpan) TimeSpan has several properties, one of them is Days , witch receives double as parameter. So theoretically you can do

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, TimeSpan.FromDays(double.MaxValue));

And see what happens first, your explicit wait ends or the sun goes supernova :)

(The script will probably crash much sooner).
