.hasDescendants() Suggest edits

Since: 2.0.0

Returns true or false based on whether the DOM has any child nodes

hasDescendants() will automatically wait for the element to be present (until the specified timeout). If the element is not found, an error is thrown which will cause the test to fail. Starting with v1.2 you can suppress element not found errors by specifying the suppressNotFoundErrors option.

Usage

browser.hasDescendants(selector, callback)
browser.hasDescendants(selector)

Parameters

Name Type description
using
Optional		 string

The locator strategy to use. See W3C Webdriver - locator strategies
selector string|object

The selector (CSS/Xpath) used to locate the element. Can either be a string or an object which specifies element properties.
callback function

Callback function which is called with the result value.

Example

module.exports = {
 'demo Test': function(browser) {
    const result = await browser.hasDescendants('.features-container');

    console.log('true or false:', result);
  },
