Detect when odoo interface is fully loaded

Question

I need to run some javascript code to check when odoo has ended loading.

I know that querying jQuery.active == 0 does the trick in version 7 but that does not work in odoo because it always keep one connection open for the longpolling.

Does anybody know which web element can I use to check for sure when the interface is fully loaded ?

If I can query the URL of the active jQuery connections that would also do the trick.

well then you need to post some existing code. we can't assume what is happening at your end. yet i want to tell you that if there are some async calls then you can use `$.when().then()` to chain it to proceed in a chained manner. — Jai, May 18 '15 at 08:20
I am trying to do this: http://agilesoftwaretesting.com/selenium-wait-for-ajax-the-right-way/ The code is there in step 5: selenium.browserbot.getCurrentWindow().jQuery.active == 0 — yucer, May 18 '15 at 09:58
I need to check the condition at any time, in order to know if odoo is not expecting responses from the server (other than longpolling request, of course) — yucer, May 18 '15 at 10:01
open the javascript console of the browser with CTRL+SHIFT+I when odoo is loaded and quiet. If you can put there a javascript expression that evaluates to true and would evaluate to false while loading something of the interface, the problem is solved. — yucer, May 18 '15 at 10:11
@Jai : I have added no custom code to odoo, since i am trying to test it. You can try the last release of odoo v8. I am just looking for a JavaScript expression to check one condition: "Odoo interface is quiet and nothing remains to load". This "quiet" concept exclude the longpolling requests for instant messaging. — yucer, Jun 08 '15 at 00:33
@AlexanderJohansen please read my answer to oMiKey's question. — yucer, Jun 08 '15 at 07:11
@yucer Did you find a solution ? I'm facing the same problem in Odoo v9 — Ahmed T. Ali, Mar 27 '16 at 17:17
No, I did not. I have to make some time to solve this. As a temporary solution we try more times. The solution would allow to safe resource usage during tests. It helps a little to disable the chron jobs while making the tests. Also anything that can Introduce random extra time. — yucer, Mar 31 '16 at 00:37
I was trying something with the $.ajaxPrefilter(). But I have to elaborate it more. — yucer, Mar 31 '16 at 00:40

I don´t know odoo but I supose that you can wait for a variable in odoo and do this:

function checkodoo() {
   if ('undefined' !== typeof odooVariableThatYouWatch ) {
       clearInterval(intervalOdoo);
       lauchYourStaff();
   }
}

var intervalOdoo = setInterval("checkodoo()",100);

If on https://www.odoo.com the variable is openerp

I look the variable here: https://www.odoo.com/documentation/8.0/howtos/web.html

Do you mean that the openerp variable is destroyed on every user interaction (Ex: a user clicks on a menu item) and it's the last element to be assigned after all needed elements are reloaded ? – yucer Jun 08 '15 at 07:15
By the way... The question is not about waiting. It's about the expression to wait for. Would your answer be 'undefined' !== typeof openerp ? – yucer Jun 08 '15 at 07:16
