Selenium Popups Explained | Real-World Popup Handling Guide
In this video, I explain real-world popups in Selenium and how to identify the popup type before choosing the right handling approach.
Many beginners confuse alerts, browser permission popups, HTML modals, and new window popups. In real automation projects, the first step is to understand what type of popup it is.
In this video you will learn:
✔ What “real popups” mean in automation testing
✔ JavaScript Alerts (Alert / Confirm / Prompt) and how Selenium handles them
✔ HTML popups (modals/overlays) and why they are NOT alerts
✔ Browser permission popups (notifications, location, camera) and how we handle them using browser options
✔ New windows/tabs popups and switching using window handles
✔ Authentication popups (basic auth) and how they are handled
✔ Best practice: identify popup type → choose correct strategy
This video is purely explanation to help you build strong fundamentals before writing automation code.
