from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("http://somedomain/url_that_delays_loading")
try:
element = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(
EC.presence_of_element_located((By.ID, "myDynamicElement"))
)
finally:
driver.quit()

　　This waits up to 10 seconds before throwing a TimeoutException or if it finds the element will return it in 0 - 10 seconds. WebDriverWait by default calls the ExpectedCondition every 500 milliseconds until it returns successfully. A successful return is for ExpectedCondition type is Boolean return true or not null return value for all other ExpectedCondition types.
　　Expected Conditions
　　There are some common conditions that are frequent when automating web browsers. Listed below are Implementations of each. Selenium Python binding provides some convienence methods so you don’t have to code an expected_condition class yourself or create your own utility package for them.

• title_is
  
• title_contains
  
• presence_of_element_located
  
• visibility_of_element_located
  
• visibility_of
  
• presence_of_all_elements_located
  
• text_to_be_present_in_element
  
• text_to_be_present_in_element_value
  
• frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it
  
• invisibility_of_element_located
  
• element_to_be_clickable - it is Displayed and Enabled.
  
• staleness_of
  
• element_to_be_selected
  
• element_located_to_be_selected
  
• element_selection_state_to_be
  
• element_located_selection_state_to_be
  
• alert_is_present
  

from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10)
element = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.ID,'someid')))
Implicit Waits
　　An implicit wait is to tell WebDriver to poll the DOM for a certain amount of time when trying to find an element or elements if they are not immediately available. The default setting is 0. Once set, the implicit wait is set for the life of the WebDriver object instance.



from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.implicitly_wait(10) # seconds
driver.get("http://somedomain/url_that_delays_loading")
myDynamicElement = driver.find_element_by_id("myDynamicElement")
