How to wait for a MessageDialog to appear? [message #30292]

Hello there!
How do I wait for a MessageDialog to appear? I just want to wait for it to
appear and then click on the "Ok" or "Cancel" button. At the moment I am
using the SWTBotFactory.sleep method, but that seems kind of random.

Thanks in advance,
Anders Baumann

There are few options; you can wait for the shell
SWTBotShell shell = bot.shell("Title");

or you can use predefined conditions in Contditions class:
bot.waitUntil(Conditions.shellCloses(shell));

You can look at the SWTBot tests for examples. Here is one case which
deletes project, which waits for shell
