Description

The Keyword Wait Until Page Contains has no INFO in the results.

KEYWORD SeleniumLibrary . Wait Until Page Contains ${HOME_PAGE_WELCOME_TEXT} Documentation:Waits until text appears on the current page. Start / End / Elapsed:20250702 10:21:31.793 / 20250702 10:21:31.802 / 00:00:00.009

So when a variable like ${HOME_PAGE_WELCOME_TEXT} is used you cannot view the value of the text that should be on the Page.
Adding an INFO line which shows the value of the text that the Page should contain will make it clear to see the value of the text in case of using a variable in the Keyword.
