Need help with text assertion in Selenium WebDriver

Question

I have to assert a text from the browser, the text I am trying to check is "0"

[i.e.<div name="text1">0</div> ].

I am using
to get the text -->
 "string text = driver.findElement(text1).getText;"
to check -->
text1.contains("0");

the issue I am facing is getText() is returning empty string(i.e. null string).

Can anyone help me out with this.

Looks like the way you are identifying element is wrong. Kindly let us know the way you are identifying an element.
