Selenium: Wait for previous action to complete in java

I am new to Selenium. I am trying to automate the steps of filtering (by type = New)and sorting (by date descending) a table within a webpage using Selenium. I am using functions sendKeys() and click() for these operations.

I am using Thread.sleep(1000) between the sendKeys and click functions, so that the list is filtered by a category before it is sorted.

Is there a way to have the code wait till the page is filtered after the sendKeys() and then proceed with the click operation

you can use WebDriverWait class to wait for some condition to be true. In your case you are sorting a table so, use the wait object to check the presence of any element's location after sorting. Here is the example code

WebDriverWait wait= new WebDriverWait(driver,30); //30 represents 30 secs
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(<Element locating stratergy>));

Make sure that, the element location which you are going to mention should be location of the element after sorting of your table.
