[Question] Check if element exists fails

[sla-te]

https://patrickhlauke.github.io/recaptcha/ Im trying to determine whether or not the recaptcha container exists.

I tried:

page.waitForSelector(text="I'm not a robot")
and
x_frame = page.frame(name="name_of_frame"); x_frame.waitForSelector("text=I'm not a robot")
page.waitForSelector("css=.g-recaptcha", timeout=1, state="attached") also fails

Ultimately solved it by:

is_captcha_required = False
for frame in self.page.frames:
    if 'not a robot' in frame.content():
        is_captcha_required = True
        break

but i dont consider that clean

The iframe is not named, it does not have id, does not have URL, so you can't identify it really. Traversing iframes is the only way to find the one that has captcha...

Hmm yeah, after looking at the regex again, if I used *google* for url it does find the iframe but the iteration should work in most cases and is maybe even a fair solution for now.
