I write the code: But I am getting exception:Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException Anyone knows how to handle popup/alert using phantomjs with webdriver. I write the code:

Selenium has methods to interact with javascript alerts. You can interact with a javascript alert as follows:

Alert alert = driver.switchTo().alert();

From here on you can get the alert text with:

String alertText = alert.getText();

You do not need any javascript to do this. Just plain Java code does all that for you.
