Hello, I have a problem, i try to find some elements and gets a problem with the library, it doesn't find the queries.

If someone know about how to fix this problem.

TestingLibraryElementError: Unable to find an element with the text: /Texto./i. This could be because the text is broken up by multiple elements. In this case, you can provide a function for your text matcher to make your matcher more flexible.

@por14571-jochoa How did you solve this problem?

Uh oh! @snolan-ethika, the image you shared is missing helpful alt text. Check https://github.com/testing-library/dom-testing-library/issues/1196#issuecomment-1998406417.

Alt text is an invisible description that helps screen readers describe images to blind or low-vision users. If you are using markdown to display images, add your alt text inside the brackets of the markdown image.

Learn more about alt text at Basic writing and formatting syntax: images on GitHub Docs.

@thamaraRD I was able to solve this by manually setting the component's template with the necessary info, it doesn't feel right having to do this, but it was getting me by. I didn't spend a lot of time figuring out another way, but this helped me get it going.
