Question

We have a Div containing some hard coded text and span containing some dynamic text values (refer below HTML code for more understanding). The resultant Text is: 1

Answer 1

Before you attempt to extract the total text e.g. 1 Tasks to be updated from 'XYZ' to 'ABC' you can induce WebDriverWait for all the three child elements to be visible and you can use the following solution:

new WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(ExpectedConditions.and(
    ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//span[@id='taskCountSpan']")),
    ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//span[@id='oldStatusSpan']")),
    ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//span[@id='newStatusSpan']"))
));
