Just ran into this today and was pretty sure I had this working on another test, though it failed when I tried running said test.
Found some simple code from another support post and trimmed it down for a test case.
Telerik version is 2012.2.1527.0
The firefox http client shows up as 2012.2.1205.0

Is this something that I would have to use a coded step for to handle FF's trickery?
In IE10 the dialog is handled.

In FF20 when the dialog pops up, it sits there and times out.

Here is some example html/js that I used for a test case on the simple confirm handler.

<html>

<head>

<script type="text/javascript">

<!--

function confirmation() {

var answer = confirm("dialog test!")

}

//-->

</script>

</head>

<body>

<form>

<input type="button" onclick="confirmation()" value="Test the button">

</form>

</body>

</html>

Hi Mark,

Thank you for reporting the issue. I was able to reproduce it and confirm it as a bug. You can track its progress here: Public URL. It turned out that the issue is not only related to Confirm dialogs, but it is also related to all Firefox specific dialogs like Alert, Confirm, Prompt and etc.

I have also updated your Telerik points accordingly.

In the meantime, as workaround you can handle the dialog by pressing the OK button with a coded step. Here's the code:

Manager.Desktop.KeyBoard.KeyPress(Keys.Enter);

Note that you need to add an assembly reference to System.Windows.Forms.dll and a using statement for the System.Windows.Forms namespace.

You can also set the RunsAgainst property for the coded step to FirefoxOnly in order to execute that step only when running the test in Firefox.

See this video for more information.

Thanks for the response, Plamen.

I figured this issue would be related to all of the other dialogs but only ran through the specific use case in the test.

I ran through you suggested fix and have it working now with FF20.01. I just want to be clear on how this fix should work. Due to the nature of the FF dialog box, this fix will only work against that browser, correct? In relation to the RunAgainst feature and setting it to FF, for the other browsers, I will then have to make a copy of the "handle confirm dialog" step for both IE and Chrome and set it accordingly as well? It would be nice to have a feature that allows for selecting the browsers that you want to run against for a specific step. :)

THanks again for the help on this one!

Hi Plamen,

Thanks for the pointer to the feature request. I'll keep an eye on that one.

That's interesting that you are not seeing the issue.Here is a screencast link and the log for the file. Note that is states the two handle confirm dialogs are not run, but in fact are....
