Modify the default wait time for @Visible annotations

[davecpayne]

Per my question on StackOverflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/59052480/is-there-any-way-to-increase-the-default-wait-in-frameworkium-for-visible-anno

I presume there's no way to increase the default timeout while waiting for an element to be @Visible, since this seems to be hard-coded in UITestLifecycle. Is that correct? Is there any workaround besides not using that annotation and doing it the 'standard' Selenium way (in which case I'm not sure the benefits of Frameworkium would outweigh the downsides).

I've just also answered the question on SO.

The @Visible uses the wait defined on the Page object.

Therefore, if you'd like to change it you have to change the way the page is constructed. There are two options for this:

1. If you are using the PageFactory you can use PageFactory.newInstance(MyPage.class, Duration.of(20, SECONDS))
2. new MyPage().get(Duration.ofSeconds(20))
3. Don't use @Visible on slow/variable pages

or, if this is popular we would consider customising the default (PRs welcome).

Another solution would be to speed up your page loads as, unless >10s is an acceptable time for users to wait, this would likely have better longer term outcomes :)

Ah, brilliant, thank you, I'll give that a try. I think it's only the one page, so I'll look at those options.
