[Webtest] <not> step not working?

Mon, 07 Jan 2008 15:05:16 +0100

Hi Mart,

this is due to a bug in HtmlUnit 1.13 (fixed in next release): the xpath
function id(...) throws an exception if no element is found with this
id. You can change your xpath to //*[@id='some nonexisting element'].

Cheers,
Marc.
