$.wait(group, timeout ,callback)

group – string, optional

a name of the thread group that this waiting should be assigned to.

Defaults to the empty string ''.

timeout – number

the number of milliseconds to wait for.

A value of null or 0 means the shortest possible timeout that the browser provides via window.setTimeout().

callback – function(), optional

a method that is called once after the timeout.

The static $.unwait() allows to break wait states defined this way.

Usage pattern

$.wait(timeout, function(){ … });

$.wait(first-timeout, function(){ … })
  .wait(second-timeout, function(){ … })
  .wait(third-timeout, function(){ … });
