What happened?

In one of my scenario, the button text in DOM is 'You have been selected' and it shows as it is in webpage too, but my getText() returns 'you have been selected'. It seems getText() is always extracting the text of the element from DOM and in lower case, irrespective of its appearance in the DOM and in Web page

What is your expected behavior?

Can we please get a consistent solution to extract the text as it appears in the webpage irrespective of what is in DOM

How to reproduce the bug.

try in any webpage where element text has a css text-transformation

Relevant log output

NIL

明確さ: clear
前提条件: JavaScriptWebdriverIO basicsCSS text transform
初心者向け度: 85
調査方針: Investigate the implementation of getText() in the WebdriverIO source code, likely in 'packages/webdriverio/src/commands/element/getText.ts'. Check how current implementation retrieves text (textContent vs innerText) and consider using getComputedStyle to detect and apply text transform. Review comments in the issue for any maintainer guidance on expected behavior.
