pause
Pauses execution for a specific amount of time. It is recommended to not use this command to wait for an
element to show up. In order to avoid flaky test results it is better to use commands like
waitForExist or other waitFor* commands.
Usage
browser.pause(milliseconds)
Parameters
| Name | Type | Details |
|---|---|---|
| milliseconds | Number | time in ms |

const starttime = new Date().getTime()
browser.pause(3000)
const endtime = new Date().getTime()
console.log(endtime - starttime) // outputs: 3000
});
