How to handle the browser notification popup in selenium using java?

Question

I want to handle the notification popup in jabong website using selenium.

Answer 1

You cannot control this kind of "popup" via Selenium directly.

What you can do is to:

• disable all push notifications for the browser session entirely:

  FirefoxProfile ffprofile = new FirefoxProfile();
  ffprofile.setPreference("dom.webnotifications.enabled", false);
  WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(ffprofile);
  

• load the existing profile in which you had pre-set up the desired behavior for the push notifications for this site:

  • manually open jabong.com and choose the desired push notification value
  • go to Help->Troubleshooting Information
  • open the "Profile Folder" and copy path to it (or its name)
  • load this profile when starting selenium driver

FYI, when you configure push notifications in the browser, Firefox inserts/updates a site-specific record inside permissions.sqlite SQLite database file which you can find inside the profile directory.
