Selenium c# custom expected conditions for innerText

the html

<span id="banner">Rolling in 10.00...</span>

my code

public void waitroller()
    {

        Console.WriteLine("waiting roller");
        WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(PropertiesCollection.driver, TimeSpan.FromDays(2));
        wait.Until<IWebElement>((d) =>
        {
            IWebElement element = PropertiesCollection.driver.FindElement(By.Id("banner"));
            if (element.Text == "Rolling in 20.00...")
            {
                return element;
            }

            return null;
        });

    }

OR

public void waitroller()
    {

        new WebDriverWait(PropertiesCollection.driver, TimeSpan.FromMinutes(1.5)).Until(ExpectedConditions.TextToBePresentInElementLocated(By.Id("banner") , "Rolling in 20.00..."));
    }

I'm stuck with this innertext because the innertext in the html is always changing and i want to make a webdriverwait that waits until the innertext in the span banner is "Rolling in 20.00" . Is there any way to make custom expected conditions because I am not understand custom expected condition.

what i need is something like this

new WebDriverWait(PropertiesCollection.driver, TimeSpan.FromMinutes(1.5)).Until(ExpectedConditions.TextToBePresentInElement(PropertiesCollection.driver.FindElement(By.Id("banner"), "Rolling in 20.00...");

but this is not work because i think the id="banner" is innerText

there is one way that work but can't work for long because i think it is the wrong way of doing it . i loop the element banner many times and check if the innerText is equals to "Rolling in 20.00..." but have error also

I don't know what you mean by "innertext", but with Selenium's WebDriverWait you can wait for whatever you want. You don't have to use the ExpectedConditions, they're only for programmers' comfort.

Example:

new WebDriverWait(...).Until(driver => driver.FindElement(...).Text.Equals(...));

On the other hand, your problem might be a completely different one. Is your "roller" a countdown where the text changes very fast? In this case you might never reach the expected condition. I think Selenium checks the expected conditions every 500 milliseconds, so it doesn't even notice when "Rolling in 20.00" is displayed for just let's say 50 millisecods and then has already changed to "Rolling in 19.95" when Selenium checks for the next time.

    WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(PropertiesCollection.driver, TimeSpan.FromDays(2));
    IWebElement bannerElement = PropertiesCollection.driver.FindElement(By.Id("banner"));
    wait.Until((d) =>{ return bannerElement.Text.Contains("Rolling in 20.00"); });

}
