Edit Question
Title
Body
Is there a library in Java that does the following? A thread should repeatedly sleep for x milliseconds until a condition becomes true or the max time is reached. This situation mostly occurs when a test waits for some condition to become true. The condition is influenced by another thread . [EDIT]Just to make it clearer, I want the test to wait for only X ms before it fails. It cannot wait forever for a condition to become true. I am adding a contrived example. class StateHolder{ boolean active = false; StateHolder(){ new Thread(new Runnable(){ public void run(){ active = true; } }, "State-Changer").start() } boolean isActive(){ return active; } } class StateHolderTest{ @Test public void shouldTurnActive(){ StateHolder holder = new StateHolder(); assertTrue(holder.isActive); // i want this call not to fail } }
