Data-Drive Wait Values in Scenario Editor

HowUse todata-driven wait values only when different test data drivegenuinely arequires different timing. Prefer conditional waits based on application state whenever possible.

When data-driven waits make sense

• Different workflows have documented processing windows.
• External systems return at different approved polling intervals.
• The timing value is part of the test data model and needs traceability.

Good practices

1. Store timing values in an approved DPL or test data source.
2. Use clear field names such as waitTimeoutSeconds or pollingIntervalSeconds.
3. Set maximum limits so bad data does not create excessive waits.
4. Review repeated wait statement?failures Thebefore ideaincreasing isdata-driven totiming use one single file so we can alter the wait statements from the CSV file and then change in scripts and in multiple places.values.

Solution:

By default, the value that the wait action would be taken as a string, so this should be changed to int by parsing the text that it receives [parseFloat($waitvalue)]
