getText() returns blank and getAttribut('textContent') returns null | in chrome v91

Question

getText() returns blank and getAttribute('textContent') returns null | in chrome v91 and on Mac machine.

getAttribute('textContent') works fine on Windows Chrome 91, but on mac and in chrome browser - its null and our scripts are failing in Mac machine.

Any help would be appreciated!

No, just verified with adding delay/wait and the returns empty string still. — dheeraj, Jul 13 '21 at 07:56

these might be different problems:

getText return an empty string if the element is not visible, not scrolled to, etc.
for null problem, read this answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/68075074/9150146

Thanks and yes, no issues with chromedriver v90 and the issue with v91. So only solution is to downgrade chromedriver version? – dheeraj Jul 13 '21 at 07:57

This has been resolved with latest chromedriver, getAttribute('innerText') and getAttribute('textContent') that has given null in chromedriver v91, is working fine with latest v92.
