Add missing isPresent command in new Element API

[garg3133]

Description of the bug/issue

The isPresent command is currently missing from the new Element API. To support this command, a new file named isPresent.js needs to be added inside lib/api/web-element/commands directory, whose content should be similar to the get* command files present in the same directory.

The argument passed to this.runQueuedCommandScoped in these files is the name of the corresponding method to be called from the lib/transport/selenium-webdriver/method-mappings.js file. Currently, there's no such method so it needs to be created.

For the isPresent command, we just need to check whether the element is an instance of WebElement or ShadowRoot.

Steps to reproduce

Go to any test file present under examples/tests directory (ecosia.js and duckDuckGo.js are good examples to work with) and try to add const result = await browser.element('input[name=q]').isPresent() and then run the test (see contributing guide on how to run the example tests). This would result in an error right now, while if you replace isPresent() with getText(), it should work fine.

After adding the command implementation, the .isPresent() command should work fine.

TODO

• Add missing command
• Fix JSDoc of the command
• Add tests for the new command
• Add types for the new command

hey @garg3133 do I have to create the function isElementPresent on method-mapping.js file also?

[garg3133]

@subhajit20 You've already worked on similar PRs, it'd be better if you work on a different issue now. I'm creating these issues for beginners who are new to the project and not just to get them done.

I'll try to review your PRs tomorrow.

It seems like a good first issue to try out and get used to the codebase. The guidelines provided seems very apt and precise but is the issue still open to PRs? Because quite a few PRs were raised so I am doubtful . It'd be very nice if you let me know @garg3133

[AritraLeo]

@garg3133 please have a look at my PR - #4098 linked to this issue.

[garg3133]

In order to discourage duplicate PRs on an issue, assigning this issue to @piyushmishra1416 since he is the first one to come up with a good PR which is very close to the solution. Also, adding @ansh21 as one of the reviewers of the PR to take the PR forward. @piyushmishra1416 please feel free to unassign yourself from the issue if you are no longer available to work on the PR.

Moving forward, we will only be reviewing PRs from the person to whom the issue is assigned.
