Hi everybody,
Sorry by advance for the grammatical errors, I'm not english.

I got a little trouble,
At the beginning of my test, I'd like to see if I'm log on.
So, I' want to verify if the link "log-out" appear.
I write
if(_containsHTML(_link("Log-out"),"Log-out"))
...
But it's always true. same with _containsText
Do you have any idea?

Thanks so much

    Hi Romain,

    Use _condition for if conditions which depend on the browser. Example

    if(_condition(_containsText(_link("Log-out"),"Log-out")))

    The proper way to do what you want is:

    if(_condition(_exists(_link("Log-out"))))

    Regards,
    Narayan

    Hi all,

    On a similar note to this question, I'd like to test if a link does NOT exists. I don't see a _notExists method or the like. How might I do this?

    Thanks,
    Brian

    Use a regular ! for not

    if(!_condition(_exists(_link("Log-out"))))
