I have a div that contains a slideshow. ( http://film.robinhoodtax.org/issues/education )
I am using Selenium to test it. So far I have been using the HTML/Selenium script below to validate that the slideshow is actually working. But my assertEval is failing.
How can I correctly detect the slideshow and make sure it is moving?.
You can see I've approached this by storing the HTML and waiting then trying again but it isn't working.
