Description
This allows to work with regular expressions in matching expected conditions, specifically the text within an element. It could clearly be extended to further cases.
Motivation and Context
By allowing to use regular expressions, 1. the matching of text becomes much more versatile and 2. it allows to work with the content of the matched groups after the match was successful. In this way e.g. status messages on websites can be matched and checked.
