Fix ReadTimeoutError

in Selenium

Solution

ReadTimeoutError in Selenium usually occurs when the WebDriver fails to establish a connection or receive a response from the browser within the default timeout period. You can fix this by increasing the `read_timeout` and `connection_timeout` values when instantiating the WebDriver, or by setting `options.timeouts.pageLoad` to a higher value to accommodate slower loading times or network issues. For example using python, `options.timeouts.pageLoad = 300000` (milliseconds).
