Re: [Htmlunit-user] Basic text search

[Brad C. <yo...@br...>]

Define "text" :D 

Anything appearing in source from the server? Anything in the generated XML DOM?
Text that -could- be visible to browsers? Text that -is- visible? XML comments? With
or without whitespace compression done by browsers? Including <script> blocks that
have already been executed? Including included JavaScript files? CSS files?

I strongly suggest not looking for anything this way and using the classes provided
by HtmlUnit to more specifically look for things you expect/don't expect to exist.
While I do this sort of text searching myself in a couple of places, I keep it very
isolated and completely hidden from my actual test cases. The -only- reason I do it
at all is because the server I'm testing against can produce errors at any point in
the source code and there is no other reliable way to detect these errors (it's
really not that reliable but it's all I got).
