Issue closing an Modal Alert (popup)

[leviathan54]

Hi All

I'm playing around with the following site (python 37/Selenium).

http://www.demo.guru99.com/V4/index.php

When i type in an incorrect password or username. I get a popup/alert.

I cant understand how to find element of the popup so i can select "ok" in the popup. I know about the find_element commands but when i open the inspector i cant see the elements of the popup.

If I understand the documentation correctly the following line would work
driver.switch_to_alert().accept without pointing it any particular element but
when i plug it into pycharm the following seems to happen driver.[strike]switch_to_alert[/strike]().alert() (i.e. strikethough in the switch_to_alert).

I played around with the line driver = driver.switch_to_alert(). It looks like it has strike though when i place it below the following line self.driver() but has no strikethough if i place it above the following line line self.driver() in line 3 (all in the same def function.)

In the code snippet below - i enter the username/password. If it is correct (ie line 18 it is passed) but if incorrect username or password (ie the else condition in line 21) i need to be able to press ok on the alert that popsup.

Can someone explain how i get around this?

   def test_login_valid(self):
        
        driver = self.driver
        driver.get('http://www.demo.guru99.com/V4/')
        path = "C://FireFoxProfile/login1.xlsx"

        rows = spreadsheet.getRowCount(path, 'Sheet1')

        login = LoginPage(driver)
#loop to extract username and password from spreadsheet and enter into website demo.guru
        for r in range(2, rows + 1):
            username = spreadsheet.readData(path, "Sheet1", r, 1)
            password = spreadsheet.readData(path, "Sheet1", r, 2)
            login.enter_username(username)
            login.enter_password(password)
            login.click_login()
#if username and Passwork then check page is loaded, else fail page
            if driver.title == "Guru99 Bank Manager HomePage":
                print("test is passed")
                spreadsheet.writeData(path, "Sheet1", r, 3, "test passed")
            else:
                print("test failed")
                spreadsheet.writeData(path, "Sheet1", r, 3, "test failed")
            # return to homepage and insert password/username for next row in spreadsheet
            driver.switch_to_alert().accept  #whats the issue with this line? I need to click OK on the # alert/popup
            
            
        time.sleep(2)

I would be so grateful if someone can point me in right direction.
