Hi

The value 601 is stored in total and I want to make sure that 'total'
matches the value on the screen (overall total). Is there any way that
I can compare to make sure that is it the correct total.

if total 601
and
overall total is 601

passed.

I tried to do if $b.contains_text("total") but it fails.
