Using C# Selenium WebDriver to interact with JavaScriptExecutor for handling prompt windows

I am faced with a JavaScript Prompt Window that I need to handle. Previously, I was able to manage a simple prompt with only an 'OK' and 'Cancel' button using the following code:

((IJavaScriptExecutor)ts.getDriver()).ExecuteScript("window.confirm = function(){return true; }")

However, the current prompt requires me to enter text before clicking 'OK'. I am not very familiar with JavaScript syntax, so I am seeking guidance on how to handle sending text to this prompt box.

UPDATE: The application I am attempting to automate has presented a Windows Prompt. While I have been able to handle most alert pop-ups using

.SwitchTo().Alert().Accept();

, this particular Windows Prompt (refer to the image example https://i.sstatic.net/EuaQS.png) cannot be handled in the same way. This is why I turned to JavaScript for assistance in managing the window Pop Up. The initial piece of code I used to handle the previous window prompt had a simple 'OK' button, whereas this new prompt contains an 'OK' button, a 'Cancel' button, and a text box that requires input to close the prompt. I am seeking guidance on the syntax needed to handle sending text to this Windows prompt in a similar manner to the previous prompt.

((IJavaScriptExecutor)ts.getDriver()).ExecuteScript("window.confirm = function(){return true; }");

was used for the simple 'OK' prompt, but I need assistance in determining the correct script to use for sending text in this new Windows prompt. What should I include in the ExecuteScript command where the question marks are?

Answer №1

It seems like this scenario is quite common when using Selenium, although my familiarity with it is limited. Upon researching online, I came across the following approach:

Alert alert = driver.SwitchTo().Alert();
driver.SwitchTo().Alert().SendKeys("Hello");
alert.Accept();

I adjusted the camel case to fit the C# implementation, considering that the original example was in Java.
