Alert Popups

Alert is a popup window which shows on screen when we click any button or open a new window.

There are different reasons when an alert shows on the screen.

When the user clicks on a button it shows an alert popup with a message , it asks us to enter some text in it etc.

There are three types of alert popup in HTML.

  • Alert Box
  • Prompt Alert Box
  • Confirm Alert Box



Below are the four methods which handle the alerts in selenium.

accept() Method:

This method is used to click on “OK button”.

Syntax: alert_class_object.accept()


dismiss() Method:
