Element.exists

Check whether this reference is still valid, or query its descendants.

js
element.exists(selector?)

Arguments

ArgumentTypeMeaning
selectorobject | stringOptional descendant selector. Omit to check this reference.

Returns

Boolean; stale self references return false, other errors throw.

Example

js
const element = UIHelper.waitForElement({id: "target", visible: true, enabled: true}, 5000);
console.log(element.exists());

Notes

With a descendant selector, a stale parent is an error. Without arguments, a stale self reference returns false; other failures throw.
