How to Insert a Pause With Dogtail on Python
Dogtail is simply an automation framework that is written and executed just like any other Python module, meaning that inserting a pause into such a module requires just using Python's integrated pause functions. In particular, you would use the "sleep" method in the "time" module to force your application to halt for a set period of time.
