There are two ways to do this:
1. Use watir-webdriver's execute_script hacks:
require 'watir-webdriver/extensions/alert'
browser.alert do
# perform action that triggers alert
end
See https://github.com/jarib/watir-webdriver/blob/master/spec/alert_spec.rb
for more examples.
2. Use WebDriver's alert handling API directly (currently Firefox-only
and considered experimental)
# perform action that triggers alert
browser.driver.switch_to.alert.accept
