Selenium-Python: interact with system modal dialogs

Question

I am running an app in the browser; and for some actions I was able to simulate actions with keystrokes; but I have a peculiar problem: some actions in my app cause system promp

Answer 1

If you are talking about system dialogs, then it's not possible to interact with them using selenium.

However, for browser popups (alerts), just navigate to the popup:

driver.switch_to_alert()

Then, use the methods from the Alert class to interact with the popup. The Alert class contains methods for dismissing, accepting, inputting, and getting text from alert prompts.

Some examples:

Alert(driver).accept()
Alert(driver).dismiss()
Alert(driver).authenticate()
Alert(driver).send_keys(keys_to_send)
Alert(driver).text()
