Selenium1.0 - Handle Pop-Up and Alerts
As per my understanding Pop-Ups are classified into four types.
1. JavaScript alerts: By default Selenium suppress the alerts during test execution, so not visible on the browser. If the alerts are not handled properly Selenium through following exception "com.thoughtworks.selenium.SeleniumException: ERROR: There was an unexpected Confirmation! [Do you want to Continue?]". This alert is further classified into "ok" , "ok and cancel" alert. This alert can be handled in the following way.
assertEquals("Saved Sucessfully!", s.getAlert()); // After click
s.chooseOkOnNextConfirmation(); // Before Click
s.chooseCancelOnNextConfirmation(); // Before Click
s.getConfirmation(); // After click
For "ok and cancel" alert, you need to consume the alert with "s.getConfirmation();" other wise it will display the exception saying "ERROR: There was an unexpected Confirmation!". Basically you should be using two statements: (ok/cancel)conformation before the click and consume after the click.If you insert an alert statement when there is no alert on the web page, selenium will display following exception - com.thoughtworks.selenium.SeleniumException: ERROR: There were no alerts
2. HTML Pop-Ups using JQuery or other techniques : Here popup is constructed using div and is visible on the screen. This can be handled in the following way
s.click("popup_ok")
s.click("popup_cancel")
3. Windows Pop-Ups : These are windows based popup and is visible on the screen. Selenium is not capable to handle this kind of pop-up, need to use AutoItv3. To handle this pop-up record the script in AutoItv3, convert into exe format and then call from Java program.
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("C:\\OKbtn.exe ");
WinWaitActive("#32770", "Message from webpage",10)
WinFlash("Message from webpage","", 4, 500) ; Just to Flash the window
ControlClick("Message from webpage", "","[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:1]");
