.findByText() Suggest edits

Since: 3.0.0

Search for an element on the page that contains a specified text.
Element can be searched by using another element as the starting point.
By default, provided text is treated as a substring, so for the 'foo' will match 'foobar' also.
If you need an exact comparison, provide the { exact: true } as the second parameter.

export default {
  demoTest(browser: NightwatchAPI): void {
    // Search by the substring matching.
