Hi, we have tried both options, the first one doesn't seem to find the popup window when it is invoked by the browser directly, testing xss vulnerability, instead of when invoking it in markup. For example, I am trying this:
1) returned = @browser.alert do @browser.goto('http:// www.url.com/"+void(document.cookie="authorization=true")+alert(document.cookie)+"') end returned.should == "ok" # Doing positive test first but it doesn't find the alert box when it is displayed, and it is not working when I am setting the URL outside the block as well. 2) Option two, however, does work, but only for firefox, and I would want it to work for all browsers with watir-webdriver. unless (@browser.driver.switch_to.alert.text.nil?) #raise "Javascript popup box is found, malicious code might be able to insert on page" end Option one works when it is invoked from a button, but not when javascript is invoked from browser url. Can someone please help me?
