Special conditions of use 

Example of filling in the "Properties" field (filled in automatically by recording actions in Recorder). 

...

Alternatively, you can specify "none" instead of "eager", but then there is a risk that the page will not load. The "eager" value only waits for the page DOM to load, without waiting for scripts, images and other resources to load, the "none" value does not wait at all.
