I am trying to fetch the details using the following xpath:
//driver.findElement(By.xpath("//span[contains(text(),'STEP3 Orientation')]")).getText();
//driver.findElement(By.xpath("//span[contains(@class,'pageTitle')]")).getText();
//driver.findElement(By.xpath("//span[contains(.,'STEP3 Orientation')]")).getText();

For all 3 xpath, I am getting the NoSuchElementException

html code Searching the xpath in html code, highlights the exact path which is need Searching the xpath in html code, highlights the exact path which is need, but inside the code it is not working.

Try applying selenium's Waits. Below code uses ExplicitWait to locate the desired element:

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver,Duration.ofSeconds(30));
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//span[contains(text(),'STEP3 Orientation')]"))).getText();
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//span[contains(@class,'pageTitle')]"))).getText();
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//span[contains(.,'STEP3 Orientation')]"))).getText();

Imports:

import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;
