Try This

function popUp(){
    var popup = document.createElement('div');
    popup.className = 'popup';
    popup.id = 'test';
    var cancel = document.createElement('div');
    cancel.className = 'cancel';
    cancel.setAttribute('onClick', 'document.getElementById("test").parentNode.removeChild('+popup +');')

    popup.innerHTML = "This is a test message";
    document.body.appendChild(popup);
    popup.appendChild(cancel);
 }
