How to deal with browser popups drop-downs and buttons using selenium web-driver?

[niana sharma]

Hi. How can we handle these types of popups using selenium web-driver in Firefox? I need to select a value from the drop-down and click on the Allow button when it enabled.

Hello Niana,

After clicking the button which opens the dialogue that contains the drop-downs, you need to wait for a while to select them. You can do that by waiting a while, but I'd recommend waiting until all AJAX calls finish. 

You can check for availability by executing a javascript as below.

String script = "return typeof jQuery!='undefined'?jQuery.active:0";
Long isActive = (Long) ((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript(script);

Hope it helps
