Signature:

class JSHandle {evaluate<Params extends unknown[], Func extends EvaluateFunc<[this, ...Params]> = EvaluateFunc<[
        this,
        ...Params
    ]>>(pageFunction: Func | string, ...args: Params): Promise<Awaited<ReturnType<Func>>>;}

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
pageFunction	Func | string
args	Params

Returns:

Promise<Awaited<ReturnType<Func>>>

Example

const tweetHandle = await page.$('.tweet .retweets');
expect(await tweetHandle.evaluate(node => node.innerText)).toBe('10');
