Ethan commented on WTR-154:
---------------------------
These methods are named quite the opposite of what's intuitive. beforeText does
not return the text before the element, it returns the text after the end of
the element (implementation is getAdjacentText("afterEnd")) and afterText
returns the text before the element (getAdjacentText("beforeBegin")). makes no
sense and they should be deprecated.
the functionality itself is useful, and you'll get complaints if it's removed.
I've reimplemented this in vapir with names that make sense, see:
http://github.com/vapir/vapir/blob/3791a7a1f6d3c760cf94387f19bfb19b8ccb33e5/vapir-ie/lib/vapir-ie/element.rb#L44
lines 44-70.
