Serenity BDD - Firefox alert box closes automatically. Unable to detect the alert

[Jatin Kaushik]

**

[main] ERROR net.serenitybdd.core.Serenity - No alert is present (WARNING: The server did not provide any stacktrace information)

**

My Question is exactly similar to this one "Firefox alert box not detected with Selenium WebDriver"

But I am not able to find the solution.Even I have tried all kind of waits, changed firefox versions & tried the solution mentioned in the shared link. But, either I am not able to implement it or its not working.

So, guys need urgent help this is the only thing blocking me with my automation project.

Issue: When doing this task manually pop up comes up when I click on update button & its working fine.

But, when i do same action using automation pop-up shows & immediately closes automatically within a fraction of seconds & serenity throws error that No Alert not found. Also, alert window that appears during automation is bit different than the one found during manual execution. Please, refer to the link shared above if you want to see the difference in windows.

  public void i_click_update_button() throws InterruptedException {
    btn_update.waitUntilClickable().click(); // clicks the button & pop-up comes
  }      

  public void Accept_POP_UP() throws InterruptedException {

    getAlert().accept(); // code to accept the alret. I have already tried implementing wait & everything. problem is pop-up comes & immediately closes automatically
}

Please, guys need help..! First time posting a question..!! Thanks in advance..!!

Does it happen if you use Chrome instead?

Hi John,

Thanks for the response..!! We are not allowed to use Chrome Browser in our office machines..!!

And, website works internally when connected to my office Network..!! So, can't test on chrome..!! 

It's a very strange behavior....when doing manually pop-up comes & waits for the response but when running same steps with Scripts pop-up just flashes for a sec & then just goes away..!! It didn't give selenium a chance to detect it..!! :( 

Anyway, by which we can accept it automatically or any way to stop it from getting dismissed?? 

Note: I have tried all kind of waits, sleeps..even tried serenity.driver.capabilities for unexpectedalert to ignore & accept..!!

It may well be an issue with the Firefox driver. Have you checked for similar defects there?

I can also confirm i have issue with firefox ESR 45.7.0 and Selenium IDE 2.9.1' s webdriver (whichever one that is)

Chrome works fine

[adi....@outlook.com]

I have found a similar issue, not related to serenity but rather to firefox. Disclaimer: I have used this to solve this issue in a framework that does not use Serenity!

When creating the driver add to the capabilities:

desiredCapability.setCapability(CapabilityType.UNEXPECTED_ALERT_BEHAVIOUR, UnexpectedAlertBehaviour.IGNORE);

This will ensure that Firefox does not dismiss the alert as it does by default.

Maybe this info might help you
