AssertionError: Find text within the document body casperJS/phantomJS AND how count the total number of Li with specific class name using casperJS

Question

I tried this code :

        var casper = require('casper').create();
        var mouse = require("mouse").create(casper);
        phantom.casperTest = true;
        phantom.cookiesEnabled = true;

        phantom.addCookie({
            'name': 'authToken',
            'value': '88f115b38585155c1',
            'domain': 'localhost',
            'path': '/'
        });
        phantom.addCookie({
            'name': 'activationId',
            'value': '1',
            'domain': 'localhost',
            'path': '/'
        });
        phantom.addCookie({
            'name': 'userId',
            'value': '1',
            'domain': 'localhost',
            'path': '/'
        });
        casper.start('http://localhost/history.php', function() {
            casper.on('remote.message', function(message) {
                console.log(message);
            });
            casper.thenOpen('http://localhost/history.php', function() {
                this.page.render('cookie.jpeg');
                this.evaluate(function() {
                    console.log('cookie it here');
                    console.log("title--" + document.title);
                    console.log(document.cookie);
                });

            });
        });

        casper.then(function() {
            this.test.assertTextExists('Yesterday');
        });

        casper.run();

It gives me this error

Why am i getting this error? Are my cookies set or unset? And how can i count the total number of Li with specific class name in casperJS with a table?

Answer to your comment : Well it depends, i don't know if you master the CSS selectors :

this.click('li.history:nth-of-type(2) a');

but care, it takes the second li element from its parent, so the classname doesn't filter the search (it's used just to get back the correct parent). Using xpath (or jQuery with eq() ) is more intuitive (if i remember well it's something like that with xpath):

var x = require('casper').selectXPath;
this.click(x("li[@class='layout_right'][2] a"));
