What's the best way to deal with the application not being ready

I have noticed that some of my tests failed b/c of the time it took for some pages to load. The recording is fine, but I am getting "TypeError(-2146827850): Object doesn't support this property or method" when I play the script. Any adivice on how to handle this?

It is recommended to fine-tune the synchronization using one of the 2 available methods: 1. Globa

It is recommended to fine-tune the synchronization using one of the 2 available methods: 1. Global.DoSleep(1000); Waits for 1 second. In many cases it is enough 2. Global.DoWaitFor('MyObjectId', 10000); - Wait for given object up to 10 seconds. If object is found earlier then method unblocks.

Also you can use the following function (that you can add to your script file): /** * Waits

Also you can use the following function (that you can add to your script file): /** * Waits for specified value of object's property. Function returns object handle * if object was found and specified property equals to desired value or 'false' * in case of timeout. * @param obj ID of object to wait for or object itself. * @param getterName Property getter function name. * @param propValue Desired value. * @param [timeout = 10000] Maximum time to wait. * @param [params] Parameters for property getter function. * @returns Found object or 'false'. */ function DoWaitForProperty ( /**String|SeSObject*/ obj , /**String*/ getterName , /**String|Number|Boolean*/ propValue , /**Number*/ timeout , /**Array|String|Number|Boolean*/ params ) /**SeSObject|false*/ { timeout = timeout || 10000 ; params = params || [ ] ; if ( typeof ( params ) != "object" ) params = [ params ] ; var start_ = new Date ; var waitInt = 0 ; do { var res = null ; if ( typeof ( obj ) == "object" ) res = obj ; else res = SeSFindObj ( obj ) ; if ( res ) { var prop = res [ getterName ] ; if ( prop && typeof ( prop ) == "function" ) { var value = prop. apply ( res , params ) ; if ( value === propValue ) { return res ; } } } SeSSleep ( 100 ) ; } while ( ( new Date - start_ ) < timeout ) ; return false ; } You can use this new function using: // Wait for timer to finish DoWaitForProperty ( 'OnlineTimerTime' , 'InnerText' , "00:00:00" , 10000 ) ;
