How can I check if some text exist or not in the page using Selenium?

With XPath, it's not that hard. Simply search for all elements containing the given text:

List<WebElement> list = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//*[contains(text(),'" + text + "')]"));Assert.assertTrue("Text not found!", list.size() > 0);

The official documentation is not very supportive with tasks like this, but it is the basic tool nonetheless.

The JavaDocs are greater, but it takes some time to get through everything useful and unuseful.

To learn XPath, just follow the internet. The spec is also a surprisingly good read.

EDIT:

Or, if you don't want your Implicit Wait to make the above code wait for the text to appear, you can do something in the way of this:

String bodyText = driver.findElement(By.tagName("body")).getText();Assert.assertTrue("Text not found!", bodyText.contains(text));

validation selenium webdriver assert

This will help you to check whether required text is there in webpage or not.

driver.getPageSource().contains("Text which you looking for");

validation selenium webdriver assert

You could retrieve the body text of the whole page like this:

bodyText = self.driver.find_element_by_tag_name('body').text

then use an assert to check it like this:

self.assertTrue("the text you want to check for" in bodyText)

Of course, you can be specific and retrieve a specific DOM element's text and then check that instead of retrieving the whole page.
