waitForStable

Wait for an element for the provided amount of milliseconds to be stable (not animating). Returns true if the selector matches at least one element that is stable in the DOM, otherwise throws an error. If the reverse flag is true, the command will instead return true if the selector does not match any stable elements.

Note: it's best to disable animations instead of using this command

Usage
$(selector).waitForStable({ timeout, reverse, timeoutMsg, interval })
