   Nothing like that is ready yet. Can you suggest how this feature may look like?

   One note in advance: I'm not yet using CodeceptJS, so anything I say now may not fit into the CodeceptJS mindset. So far we're still investigating which tool to use for our usecase.

   @stanjer In my case I can find the image tag in a JavaScript object but not in the page's html code.

   window.x = new Image();
   window.x.src = 'http://placehold.it/350x150';
   

   So: Yes.

   That would not work however if the page had AJAXed home to the server.

   @DavertMik I have never used Selenium so I don't know if there is something like PhantomJS' onResourceRequested. CodedeptJS would have to keep track of outgoing requests with that.

   Maybe something like this?

   I.startMonitoringWebRequests();
   I.click(this.submitButton);
   I.wait(1);
   I.sawWebRequestUrlContaining('placehold.it');
   

   Where the last command checks if there was at least one web request to a URL containing the specified string (since the last time we started monitoring).

   Not sure if that makes any sense and if it is in scope for CodeceptJS - but it would make things easier for us.

   Yeah, good idea but I think this should be implemented as custom helper and not a general purpose method. If someone is interested they can develop and publish such helper on NPM or propose it with pull request
