How to Click on "Accept" button with Selenium Webdriver

[ama...@bufetedemarketing.com]

Hi guys!

I have a problem with a pop-up in Selenium Webdriver. I get the following clicking in the "Export to excel" button:

I've tried to accept this dialog doing the following:

                Alert alert = driver.switchTo().alert();

alert.accept();

But it returns the following error: Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.NoAlertPresentException: No modal dialog is currently open

It seems not to be an alert dialog, so, I tried too the following:

                ArrayList<String> tabs2 = new ArrayList<String> (driver.getWindowHandles());

driver.switchTo().window(tabs2.get(0));                        // I put "get(0)" because the size is 1 (I don't know why it doesn't count two windows)

driver.findElement(By.linkText("Aceptar")).click();        // I don't know how to identify the name of the button (it's impossible right-button mouse on that dialog

And it returns the following error: Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException: Unable to locate element: Aceptar

Any ideas how could I click "Accept" button of this new window??

Thanks so much!!!!!

What you are seeing is NOT a Javascript triggered alert, but is an OS dialog box which cannot be handled by WebDriver. That explains why you see the size as 1 when you query the window handles.

 

You might want to spend sometime reading through this blog post : http://ardesco.lazerycode.com/index.php/2012/07/how-to-download-files-with-selenium-and-why-you-shouldnt/

Ok Thanks!!

I've tried with this code:

        //Store the current window handle

String winHandleBefore = driver.getWindowHandle();

driver.findElement(By.xpath(".//*[@id='xls-export']")).click();

Thread.sleep(5000);

//Switch to new window opened

for(String winHandle : driver.getWindowHandles()){

 driver.switchTo().window(winHandle);

}

//Perform the actions on new window

//Close the new window, if that window no more required

driver.close();

//Switch back to original browser (first window)

driver.switchTo().window(winHandleBefore);

With this code  I only can close the entire webpage (pop-up and parent window), how could I close only the pop-up?

And, like you say, it's impossible to click in "Accept" button, so, I won't do it. But I need to continue the navigation through the web after closing the pop-up...

Any ideas?

Thanks so much!
