|

- The 'waitFor' style functions (waitForSelector, etc.) cannot be
|
||||
chained together in certain conditions without creating race
|
||||
conditions where the test may fail nondeterministically. For
|
||||
example, don't do this:
|
||||
|
||||
casper.waitForSelector('tag 1');
|
||||
casper.waitForSelector('tag 2');
|
||||
|
||||
Instead, if you want to avoid race condition, wrap the second
|
||||
`waitFor` in a `then` function like this:
|
||||
|
||||
casper.waitForSelector('tag 1');
|
||||
casper.then(function () {
|
||||
casper.waitForSelector('tag 2');
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
- Casper uses CSS3 selectors; you can often save time by testing and
|
||||
debugging your selectors on the relevant page of the Zulip

development app in the Chrome JavaScript console by using e.g.
