0















I have created this Keyword:

Wait Until Page Contains id=outputtext-text-Header:ApplicationHeaderCoachView1:ApplicationHeaderCoachViewInner1:Output_Text1
Element Should Be Visible id=outputtext-text-Header:ApplicationHeaderCoachView1:ApplicationHeaderCoachViewInner1:Output_Text1


But it always fail and give me this error:



Text 'id=outputtext-text-Header:ApplicationHeaderCoachView1:ApplicationHeaderCoachViewInner1:Output_Text1' did not appear in 5 seconds.


The Element HTML Code is:



<p id="outputtext-text-Header:ApplicationHeaderCoachView1:ApplicationHeaderCoachViewInner1:Output_Text1" aria-labelledby="outputtext-label-Header:ApplicationHeaderCoachView1:ApplicationHeaderCoachViewInner1:Output_Text1" class="text-left">FCP</p>

          You're waiting for the page to contain the literal string "id=outputtext-text..." displayed somewhere on the screen. Are you sure that's what should appear on the page? It looks like a locator, but that keyword takes a string instead of a locator.



          I don't know for sure what you're trying to do, but if you're waiting for an element with the given id, you should use Wait until page contains element which takes a locator as an argument.

          • Thanks @Bryan Oakley. What I'm trying to do is only verify that element is present on the page. I don't care about the text that this element display, I only need to verify its filled on the page. But always have this error that element that element did not appear in 5 seconds.
