I'm aware of this but wanted to keep it separate to reinforce the idea that you do not need to do file downloads, I will be merging both parts together in the near future.
One thing you may have noticed is that the code performing a status check and a file download is very similar.

If you now open up the screenshot and look at it, it's probably not going to show you what you expected.
When the Selenium server is not running on the same machine as the test execution, the freshly downloaded file (in case the first problem was successfully resolved) still needs to be transferred between servers.
Before writing scripts we should know that what we need to write, as we are new with this tool and we even do not know what language it follows and how the script look like.
If the latter, you could deploy the test solution with wget (in fixed or relative path) wherever you plan to run the tests.
With a Java robot class you will be either blindly clicking at a specific location, or trying to send keystrokes to the pop up dialogue in the hope that it is in the state you expect it to be in.
HTTP GET request over to the webserver and then downloads the file to a temporary location, then it hands the file over to the operating system which then pops up a dialogue asking you where you really want to save it.
When clicking on a PDF for example, the browser should not open a dialog and ask the user what to do with the file, but rather save it without comments and questions in a predefined directory.
When you use Firefox to download a zip or pdf file in selenium webdriver automation test scripts, you may find a dialog popup which you can not handle always.
TOCSetting up Google Chrome (Chrome)The above Selenium test automation script can also run on Google Chrome without making too many modifications.
Selenium because the definition of what a popup is can be unclear and different drivers exhibit different default behaviour.
AWS Certification Cost in IndiaAWS Certification Cost in India Nowadays, AWS certification has become the buzz word.
Where ever it is required to use keystrokes in your test, you can use this for example pressing enter on any dialog box and typing username and password on the popup which you cannot simulate with Selenium.
When I Run that Script, this will not handle the the Download Dialog in IE 9 and Yellow bar appears and nothing hapens.
It gets triggered due to some action performed by the user or automatically due to some system settings.
It has failed because we can't find the button that is used to close the HTML popup; the implication here is that clicking on the second generate alert button did not work.
You and the BA have talked to the product owner and they have said that they want to give the users some cool functionality that enables them to download some PDF's with useful information in them.
