WaitFor an Element | Playwright Tutorial - Part 78

In this video, let's understand how to use the waitfor function.

The video is a demo of the "wait for" function in Playwright, a tool for browser automation. The function allows you to wait for specific conditions of an element before taking an action. The video demonstrates a scenario where a toast message appears after logging in, and prevents the script from clicking on the sign out button. The instructor explains that the toast message appears for a fraction of a second, making it difficult for the script to interact with the sign out button. To solve this issue, the instructor suggests using the "wait for" function to wait for the toast message to disappear before clicking on the button. The video concludes with the instructor asking viewers to share their own experiences or any questions in the comments.
