In this example, we are explaining how to verify whether a specified UI element is not present on the screen.

* **Action**: verifyDoesNotExists
* **Input Value**: N/A
  * This action does not require any input value to check for the absence of the element.
* **Output Value**: {Status}
  * The verification result is stored in the **{Status}** dynamic variable, with the following possible values:
    * **True**: If the element does not exist on the screen.
    * **False**: If the element exists on the screen.
* **Logical Explanation**: The **verifyDoesNotExists** action identifies the captured object on the application interface and checks whether it is absent. The verification result (**True**) is stores in the **{Status}** variable.
