NoAlertPresentException when attempting to accept alert using SST Python

I'm attempting to accept a javascript alert that pops up when deleting an element on my webpage. When I use accept_alert() or dismiss_alert(), I'm receiving the NoAlertPresentException: Message: u'no alert open\n message. My code looks like this:

click_element(get_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="tracker"]/table[4]/tbody/tr/td[1]/a[1]'),wait=True)
accept_alert('Do you wish to delete?')

I have only been working with SST for 2 weeks, so I may be missing a simple solution.

The code that calls the javascript alert is as follows:

<a href="javascript: void(0);" onclick="return DeleteFood(1293652875);" class="track_remove" title="Remove">⊗</a>

    try:
        ** your code **

    except Exception as e:
        try:
            self.driver.switch_to.alert.accept()
            print(e)
        except NoAlertPresentException as e:
            print(e)

Please try below after clicking on element which opens alert

 try:
    WebDriverWait(browser, 3).until(EC.alert_is_present())

    alert = browser.switch_to_alert.accept()

    print "alert accepted"
except TimeoutException:
    print "no alert"

You should call click_element with wait=False see this

So, something like the following should work

click_element(get_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="tracker"]/table[4]/tbody/tr/td[1]/a[1]'),wait=False)
accept_alert('Do you wish to delete?')
