In this exercise, I show how a typical test with "Command - Command - Command" can lead to flake when the application is slow to react to a particular command. By adding an assertion we can make the test runner "wait" as long as needed for the app to "catch up". Find the starting code in the repo github.com/bahmutov/flaky-test-cypress branch "level3" If you like hands-on testing coding challenges, check out my Cypress/Playwright courses at https://cypress.tips/courses
