Expected conditions in protractor

While writing selenium tests in Python, I got used to using Explicit Waits a lot for waiting for a page to load, or for waiting for an element to become visible, or clickable etc:

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

element = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(
    EC.presence_of_element_located((By.ID, "myDynamicElement"))
)

The key concept here is providing an Expected Condition to wait for, there are multiple types:

• text_to_be_present_in_element_value


• element_to_be_clickable


• alert_is_present


• etc

Using Expected Conditions make the code cleaner and more reliable comparing to using sleeps with hardcoded time intervals.

Now, we are switching our end-to-end testing infrastructure to protractor a lot.

Are there similar Expected Conditions in protractor as there are in python-selenium or java-selenium ? If not, what is the canonical way to explicitly wait for a condition in protractor?

^{I've looked through protractor documentation and found nothing about it.}
