ST-PRR-004 - Hardcoded Delay Activity
OUT OF SUPPORT
Studio User Guide
Last updated Dec 20, 2023
ST-PRR-004 - Hardcoded Delay Activity
Rule ID:
ST-PRR-004
Scope: Workflow
The rule checks whether The Delay Activity is overly used. This activity may affect performance, and thus its use should be limited.
Consider using other mechanisms to wait for application states like use timeout/appear/exist instead of hardcoded delays. For more about synchronization, refer to the UI Automation page.
