In selenium tests, you open a webpage using

from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("whateverpage.org.com")

How can I set the timeout of this command for selenium version 3.8.0 and python 2.7.12?

To set the time out for Page Loading you can induce the set_page_load_timeout(seconds).

set_page_load_timeout

Method Details

def set_page_load_timeout(self, time_to_wait):
    """
    Set the amount of time to wait for a page load to complete
    before throwing an error.

Args

time_to_wait: The amount of time to wait

Usage

driver.set_page_load_timeout(3)

Example

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.common.exceptions import TimeoutException

driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r'C:\Utility\BrowserDrivers\chromedriver.exe')
driver.set_page_load_timeout(2)
try :
    driver.get("https://www.booking.com/hotel/in/the-taj-mahal-palace-tower.html?label=gen173nr-1FCAEoggJCAlhYSDNiBW5vcmVmaGyIAQGYATG4AQbIAQzYAQHoAQH4AQKSAgF5qAID;sid=338ad58d8e83c71e6aa78c67a2996616;dest_id=-2092174;dest_type=city;dist=0;group_adults=2;hip_dst=1;hpos=1;room1=A%2CA;sb_price_type=total;srfid=ccd41231d2f37b82d695970f081412152a59586aX1;srpvid=c71751e539ea01ce;type=total;ucfs=1&#hotelTmpl")
    print("URL successfully Accessed")
    driver.quit()
except TimeoutException as e:
    print("Page load Timeout Occured. Quiting !!!")
    driver.quit()

Console Output

Page load Timeout Occured. Quiting !!!

Deep Dive

As per Python 3.x if we don't handle the exception the following log messages are observed :

    raise exception_class(message, screen, stacktrace)
selenium.common.exceptions.TimeoutException: Message: timeout
  (Session info: chrome=62.0.3202.94)
  (Driver info: chromedriver=2.33.506120 (e3e53437346286c0bc2d2dc9aa4915ba81d9023f),platform=Windows NT 6.2.9200 x86_64)
