How can I check if some text exist or not in the page using Selenium?

Question

I'm using Selenium WebDriver, how can I check if some text exists or not on the page? Maybe someone recommends me useful resources where I can read about it. Thanks

In Java use the following function: 

public void verifyTextPresent(String value)

 { 

driver.PageSource.Contains(value);

 }

 

and the usage would be:

 

try {

            Assert.IsTrue(verifyTextPresent("Selenium Wiki"));  

Console.WriteLine("Selenium Wiki test is present on  the home page"); 

} 

catch (Exception)

{

 Console.WriteLine("Selenium Wiki test is not present on the home page");

 }

Hope this helps!
