Unexpected dialog failure when dialog is expected

[Donna]

In a test case, I click on a PDF link on the page, IE 9's download dialog appears along the bottom of the browser window. The test case then handles the dialog by Canceling it.

If I run this test case in Quick Execution, it works.
If I run this test case as part of a Test List, it fails with an Unexpected Dialog error.

Is this a known issue? Am I over-looking something? I believe this test case worked in a Test List before I updated to 2013.2.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Donna,

The problem is likely related to your test list settings. You can read over this document for instructions on how to adjust your settings to handle an unexpected dialog:

Avoiding Dialog Handling Problems with the UnexpectedDialogAction Feature.

Thanks for the reply. I'll look over the instructions.

But as I said, this worked before in the 2012 releases. So maybe it works differently now.
