After evaluating possible alternative solutions as well as suggestions provided by @prrace & @aivanov-jdk, I think introducing small delay (Thread.sleep) would be the best option - for syncing the updated position to window manager and keeping in mind the broader range of testing requirement that the framework needs to support for now.
