I am facing the same issue as [Problem with gettext()](http://Problem with gettext) happening to me when I try to get the text of an object after changing its value. As per the attached issue, it says it will be fixed, but couldn’t find a solution myself. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!!
Please make sure you are calling findElement() once after the value of the object has been changed.
Every getText(), should be in the below syntax:
driver.FindElement(element).getText;
