904130 - [marionette-js-runner] Look into supporting something like Marionette.Element#textContent

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Testing Graveyard :: JSMarionette, defect)

Description

[Gareth Aye [:gaye] (back from PTO)]

We need some way to get the text in elements' text node children. Marionette.Element#text returns a string representation of the marionette thing and it's relatively useless. We need something like MarionetteElement#textContent which could look at a <div> like <div>Hello, Gareth!</div> and return 'Hello, Gareth!' by making a call to Element#textContent (or something equivalent). I can't immediately find something like this in the marionette server docs, but we should do more digging.

Does: https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/marionette-js-client/blob/master/lib/marionette/element.js#L191 really not work ? Or is there a bug in the js client?
