Network Latency: High latency can slow down API responses. Use CDNs to cache responses closer to users.
Database Queries: Inefficient queries can delay responses. Optimize queries and use indexing.
Heavy Computation: Offload heavy computations to background jobs or use caching mechanisms.

To wait for file loading in Selenium Automation, we can use explicit wait or thread.sleep() method.
Explicit wait is used to wait for a specific condition to occur before proceeding with the next step.
Thread.sleep() method is used to pause the execution for a specified amount of time.
We can also use the ExpectedConditions class to wait for a file to be loaded.
Waiting for a file to be loaded is important to ensure t...
Multi-window handling in Selenium involves managing multiple browser windows or tabs during automation testing.
Use driver.getWindowHandles() to get all window handles.
Switch to a specific window using driver.switchTo().window(windowHandle).
To close a window, use driver.close() and switch back to the original window.
Example: After opening a new tab, switch back to the main window using driver.switchTo().window(orig...

Implicit Wait: Sets a default wait time for the entire session. Example: driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
Explicit Wait: Waits for a specific condition to occur before proceeding. Example: WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10); wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOf(element));

ExpectedConditions.elementToBeClickable() - waits for an element to be clickable
ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated() - waits for an element to be visible
ExpectedConditions.titleContains() - waits for the page title to contain a certain text
