Automation Framework - delay Job

This job waits for a specified time unless one of a specific set of conditions are met.
It can be used to wait for regression tests being proxied through ZAP in order to explore your application more thoroughly.

It is covered in the video: ZAP Chat 12 Automation Framework Part 6 - Delays and Active Scan.

The time parameter supports the formats hh:mm:ss, mm:ss and ss, so “5” is 5 seconds, “1:30” is one minute and 30 seconds and “2:20:30” is 2 hours, 20 minutes and 30 seconds.

The conditions supported are:

The creation of the file given by the optional fileName parameter
Calling the static method: org.zaproxy.addon.automation.jobs.DelayJob.setEndJob(true);
Calling the API end point: automation / action / endDelayJob
