Sorry to too many replies. But this is really killing me. I see there is
anothet wait which is wait_until_present?
Someone please clarify the difference between the 3
1. element.when_present, which is deprecated and auto included from watir
6.0 onwards
2. element.wait_until(&:present) which is same as element.wait_until {|el
el.present?)|} &
3. element.wait_until_present
I have read that two is used when Watir.relaxed_locate = false two but why
would someone ever set this to true? which means watir doesnt wait for an
element to be found or present before taking an action.
Thanks
