String being searched for surrounded by \' instead of ' in AssertExsts/assertTitles

[thinkstylestudio]

I'm using OSX 10.8.5 and Chrome. I'm not sure if that matters. What it looks like is that the string I'm trying to search is accidently having the " or ' escaped. It's outputing \'HELLO! Canada: Daily news- Celebrity, fashion and beauty\' instead of `'HELLO! Canada: Daily news- Celebrity, fashion and beauty'``

Any ideas?

var x = require('casper').selectXPath;
casper.options.viewportSize = {width: 1381, height: 806};
casper.on('page.error', function(msg, trace) {
   this.echo('Error: ' + msg, 'ERROR');
   for(var i=0; i<trace.length; i++) {
       var step = trace[i];
       this.echo('   ' + step.file + ' (line ' + step.line + ')', 'ERROR');
   }
});
casper.test.begin('Resurrectio test', function(test) {
   casper.start('http://google.com');
   casper.waitForSelector("form[name=gbqf] input[name='q']",
       function success() {
           test.assertExists("form[name=gbqf] input[name='q']");
           this.click("form[name=gbqf] input[name='q']");
       },
       function fail() {
           test.assertExists("form[name=gbqf] input[name='q']");
   });
   casper.waitForSelector("input[name='q']",
       function success() {
           this.sendKeys("input[name='q']", "Hello");
       },
       function fail() {
           test.assertExists("input[name='q']");
   });
   casper.waitForSelector(x("//*[contains(text(), \'HELLO! Canada: Daily news- Celebrity, fashion and beauty\')]"),
       function success() {
           test.assertExists(x("//*[contains(text(), \'HELLO! Canada: Daily news- Celebrity, fashion and beauty\')]"));
         },
       function fail() {
           test.assertExists(x("//*[contains(text(), \'HELLO! Canada: Daily news- Celebrity, fashion and beauty\')]"));
   });

   casper.run(function() {test.done();});
});

I was able to narrow down where the issue is.

The function:

CasperRenderer.prototype.pyrepr = function(text, escape) {
  // todo: handle non--strings & quoting
  var s =  "'" + text + "'";
  //if(escape) s = s.replace(/(['"])/g, "\\$1");
  return s;
}

the if(escape) seems to be firing true all the time. by commenting it out the strings worked properly.

I made a hatchet job attempt to fix. What do you think? #23

Your fix looks good to me. I've just merged it.

Thanks !
