Description

getText() was in the past used to create information that will be used in asserts. Partially getText() is used for toString() generation as well. But since we have now power asserts and since they get the information from the real source instead of from getText() this means getText() is obsolete now. This might be a breaking cahnge, even though it is unlikely the method was really used by others.
