Problem Background

At some point during the releases of Liferay Portal 7.3 CE GA1-GA6, there was a small changed introduced in the rich text editor such that a \n newline character is no longer present in the model value.

Steps to Reproduce

• Run the InputRichTextDefaultValueTester

  mvn -Dintegration.browser.headless=false verify \
      -P selenium-portal-showcase \
      -Dit.test=\*InputRichTextDefaultValueTester\*
  

Expected Results

The test passes.

Actual Results

The test fails with a TimeoutException because it is expecting a newline character after the <br /> tag, as is the case with Liferay Portal CE 7.2:

<p>This is some <strong>bold old</strong> text<br />\nand this is some <em>italic</em> text.</p>

The fix is to adjust the test so that it passes with or without the newline, as it is not significant and does not represent a bug.
