After Selenium 4:

Syntax/Example:

driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(Duration.ofSeconds(10));

wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//*[@id="123"]")));

 Fluent Wait:

    Fluent Wait is used 

Before Selenium 4:

Syntax:

Wait<WebDriver> wait = new FluentWait<WebDriver>(driver)

                    .withTimeout(40, TimeUnit.SECONDS)

                    .pollingEvery(5, TimeUnit.SECONDS)

                    .ignoring(NoSuchElementException.class);

Example:

After Selenium 4:

Syntax:

Wait<WebDriver> wait = new FluentWait<WebDriver>(driver)

                    .withTimeout(Duration.ofSeconds(30))

                    .pollingEvery(Duration.ofSeconds(5))

                    .ignoring(NoSuchElementException.class);
