Detect text in the form with selenium

Question

I am trying to write a java script using selenium web driver to verify if a user already exist during the sign up . when a user access to my website he click on "become a tinze"

then he complete the form and clique on "join"

if the mail already exist message "Email Already exist" displayed .

my script successfully complete the form but it can't detect the message "Email Already exist"

here is the html code of the message that I'm trying to detect

<p name="already" style="color:Red;" class="ng-binding">Email Already exist</p>

and here is the code I use to verify if the text is displayed but it always show me detected

     driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("span.ng-scope")).click();
    int v = 0,i=0;
    System.out.println("enter while");
       while(v==0){
   try{
     WebElement txtbox_username = driver.findElement(By.id("firstname"));
        if(txtbox_username.isDisplayed()){
            v=1;
            System.out.println("Complete the forme");}}
    catch(NoSuchElementException nsee){
    i++;
     System.out.println("Try number:"+i); }}  
     driver.findElement(By.id("firstname")).sendKeys("haha");
     driver.findElement(By.id("lastname")).sendKeys("haha");
     driver.findElement(By.name("email")).sendKeys("hah@ahla.com");
     driver.findElement(By.id("password")).sendKeys("yassiryakhlaf");
      driver.findElement(By.id("signmeup")).click();
      System.out.println(driver.findElement(By.id("firstname")).getText());  
      try {Boolean display =  driver.findElement(By.xpath("//p[@name='already']")).getText().equals("Email Already exist");
      if (display){System.out.println("detected");}
      else{System.out.println("not detected");}
      } catch (NoSuchElementException e) {System.out.println("nott detected");}

when I try here is the result

This worked for me.

try {
            boolean boo = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[@id='MsgAfterSignup']/center/p")).isDisplayed()
                && driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[@id='MsgAfterSignup']/center/p")).getText()
                        .equals("Email Already exist");
            if (boo){
            System.out.println("detected");
            }
            else{
                System.out.println("Not detected");
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("Not detected");
        }

Perhaps the element does always exist, but some javascript shows or hides the element (or a parent) depending on results from the "already exists" check.

Maybe try the isDisplayed() method?

isDisplayed() vs isVisible() in Selenium
