Hi gsgowtam!

 

One of the most common methods to retrieve the text of an object is to the retrieve the 'contentText' of an object. 

 

For instance, I can retrieve the text of our Login button on our SmartStore with the snippet below;

loginButtonText = Aliases.browser.Page("https://bearstore-testsite.smartbear.com/").FindElement("//span[.='Log in']").contentText;

 

Here is our document on the contentText Property;

I hope this helps!
