How to use ThucydidesRunner class of net.thucydides.junit.runners package

// This loops gracefully handles StateElementReference errors and retries up to 10 times. These can occur when an element, like a modal or notification, is no longer available.
export async function findByAndroidId( id, { assert = wd.asserters.isDisplayed, timeout = 10000, interval = 100 } = {} ) {
  MAX_ATTEMPTS = 10;
  let attempt = 0;

  while( attempt < MAX_ATTEMPTS ) {
    try {
      return await this.waitForElementById( `android:id/${ id }`, assert, timeout, interval );
    }
    catch ( error ) {
      if ( error.message.includes( "StaleElementReference" ) )
        attempt++;
      else
        throw error; // Re-throws the error so the test fails as normal if the assertion fails.
    }
  }
}
