Refreshing Web Page By WebDriver When Waiting For Specific Condition

I'm looking for more elegant way to refresh webpage during tests (I use Selenium2). I just send F5 key but I wonder if driver has method for refreshing entire webpage Here is my code 

    while(driver.findElements(By.xpath("//*[text() = 'READY']")).size() == 0 )
        driver.findElement(By.xpath("//body")).sendKeys(Keys.F5);
        //element appear after text READY is presented      
    driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("div.column a")).click();

Maybe is some better solution for finding element on manually refreshed page

Solution

  • In Java or JavaScript: 

    driver.navigate().refresh();

    This should refresh page.
