How to handle random pop ups

Issue:

 In some pages unexpected popup's(ex:ad's) will be displaying. Because of this the script will fail by throwing exceptions like ElementNotFoundException and currently Element is not Interactable etc.. . Here these ad's are not specific to particular page. It may come at any page. 

How to handle?

A popup can be an alert or an ad in a iframe or an ad in a new window and all these are treated in different ways.

  1. Assuming its an Alert, log_file has already provided you the solution, i.e. to use alertIsPresent(), and accept or dimiss it as per your requirements.

  2. Assuming the ad is in iframe, follow the below approach:

    driver.switchTo.frame(driver.findElement(By.id(locatorToIdentifyFrame)));       
driver.findElement(By.id(locatorToCloseAd)).click(); //Close Ad
driver.switchTo().defaultContent(); // Return to main window

  3. Assuming the ad in the window, follow the below approach:

    String mainWinHandle = driver.getWindowHandle(); // Get your main window
String subWinHandle = null;

Set<String> allHandle = driver.getWindowHandles(); // Fetch all handles
Iterator<String> iterator = allHandle.iterator();
while (iterator.hasNext()){
    subWindowHandler = iterator.next();
}
driver.switchTo().window(subWindowHandler); // switch to popup 

//Write code to close Ad or skip                                            

driver.switchTo().window(parentWindowHandler);

So, you need to use ExpectedConditions in all the three scenarios and based on your need, please put them into a function and call them in your @BeforeTest or @Test (not all but atleast in those scenarios where you suspect an unexepected ad might appear).

  Hello Techies, Unix Knowledge required for Software Testers - Manual and Automate the various UNIX / LINUX processes, So that we can achieve end to end test automation (If we have any Unix processes in your application).We use these command when we work on Git Bash too. So here I am listing all the commands which we use frequently. # List all files in a long listing (detailed) format ls -al # Display the present working directory pwd # Create a directory mkdir directory # Remove (delete) file rm file # Remove the directory and its contents recursively rm -r directory # Force removal of file without prompting for confirmation rm -f file # Forcefully remove directory recursively rm -rf directory # Copy file1 to file2 cp file1 file2 # Copy source_directory recursively to destination. If destination exists, copy source_directory into destination, otherwise create destination with the contents of source_directory. cp -r source_directory destination # Rename or ...

Most common used Docker Commands for SDETs

Why we need docker for selenium Tests: Selenium grid helps to run our test cases in different operating systems and on different browsers.  Usually while configuring the Selenium grid we need to host multiple virtual machines as nodes and we need to connect every single node with the hub. Also, when we set up a normal grid we need to download the Selenium server jar file and run that jar file on each computer in which we are going to set up the Selenium grid.   This is costly and sometimes a time-consuming task for the testers. However, Docker helps us to solve cost-related and time-consuming problems. By using Docker containers we can set up and pack a software application with all of the contents that are required to build that application, such as databases, libraries, and other dependencies, and finally, you can ship them all out as one package. So with the help docker of we can configure the hub and nodes as images which already built in docker hub. So since Docker is a...

Running tests from maven command line: Different options

  When we work on developing automation scripts ,we may sometime need run based on different conditions. Let us see some here. Assuming Prerequisite met for running : Some TestClasses with TestMethods are present in Framework Maven is used as build tool for Framework design. Using TestNG framework for Test Cases The following are the steps: Run specific test from a test class: mvn -Dtest=Testclassname#testmethodname test To run all tests in class: mvn -Dtest=classname test To run test that match a pattern: This will run all tests that starts with  testcreate  in class named  Testclassname mvn -Dtest=Testclassname#testcreate* test Run all test methods match pattern ‘testFoo*’ and ‘testBar*’ from a test class: mvn test -Dtest=Test1#testFoo*+testBar* To run multiple methods in a testclass: mvn -Dtest=Testclassname#testone+testtwo test T o  run Multiple method from multiple class : mvn test -Dtest=CLASS_NAME1#METHOD_NAME1,CLASS_NAME2#METHOD_NAME2 To run multiple tes...
