Hello Ivaylo,

Thanks for the reply. I resolved this by created Coded Step instead of using regular step and it worked as I wanted.

 

Thanks,

Hi

Could you please help me with the coded step for the verification of text content using regular expression
The DOM will look like this 

<div id="ID123" style="">
AutomationTest: Verify Text Message1. <br><br>
<b>Verify Text Message2</b>
<br>Verify Text Message3
<br>
<br>
<b>
Verify Text Message4.
<br>
<br>
<b>Verify Text Message5</b>
<ul class="bullet">
<li>Verify Text Message6</li>
</ul>
<b>Verify Text Message7</b>
<ul class="bullet"><li>Verify Text Message8 Tagen</li>
</ul>
</div>

Need to verify the content  using RegEx "AutomationTest: Verify Text Message1."

This content will be changing dynamically, so i tried using with coded test step, however i'm getting the error as "Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

 HtmlDiv topdiv = Find.ByXPath<HtmlDiv>("//div[@id='ID123']/text()[1]");
            topdiv.AssertContent().TextContent(ArtOfTest.Common.StringCompareType.RegEx,"AutomationTest: Verify Text Message1.");

Could you please advice on this scenario.
Thank you

Hello Subhash,

I hosted the DOM tree locally and ran the code, which you have shared. The error that you have experienced is caused by the HtmlDiv's find expression, which does not return a valid element. I did some changes to the XPath and the rest of your code works. Please check the changes I did and apply them to your test project.

I hope the above example will help you automate this scenario.
