Selenium IDE doesn't do anything for "pause" command

I'm using the selenium IDE for Chrome on Mac Big Sur. I want to add a puse in between commands to see why something isn't executing properly. This is in my ".side" file

}, {
  "id": "32f35ed7-1a28-4540-a93d-3cb8ba0e012a",
  "comment": "",
  "command": "pause",
  "target": "",
  "targets": [],
  "value": "100000"
}, {

I have put a really high value but when I play back my test, it just breezes through it without pausing at all, although it tells me the command was successfully run

enter image description here

What's the right way to pause my test?

Solution

  • Use Target instead of Value, Like below

    Target: 100000

    instead of

    value: 100000

    Also,

    Set speed to fastest (Actions --> Fastest), otherwise it won't work.
