On one of our webpage, on clicking the button we display the list of records. We have a loading screen with a text in <p> that is displayed until the records are fetched from DB.
I need to set some wait time using the text in <p> such that it waits until text is displayed before proceeding to the next steps. Once the text is replaced with the list items, want it to resume playback. What should I be using in this case?
Thanks
Satpreet

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but I believe exists looks for whether or not the element exists in the DOM at all, while visibility looks for whether or not the element is "visible" (for example, if it's an html element and you have the element "hidden" on the page. It exists, you just can't see it).

Hi,
@Aaron: Thanks! I highly appreciate your contribution! And yes you are correct with the details you have listed!
@Satpreet: You could be using a wait step for the element to contain some text. As far as I understand the workflow of the application this should work fine. Alternatively if you would need any further assistance please share additional details on what you have tried and what the result was.
Thanks in advance for your cooperation!
