Handling alerts and pop-ups in Selenium is straightforward using the Alert interface. You can switch to an alert with driver.switchTo().alert(), then choose actions like accept(), dismiss(), getText(), or sendKeys() for prompt pop-ups. It’s important to handle them promptly, as unhandled alerts can block further script execution. Learning to manage alerts, browser pop-ups, and confirmation dialogs is essential for robust test automation. Many professionals sharpen these skills through a Selenium certification, which covers practical scenarios like dealing with unexpected pop-ups and integrating alert handling into Selenium frameworks efficiently.
