  Hi Anoop,
  
  Make sure that you use _expectConfirm(label, false); before the statement which triggers the confirm dialog.
  
  Here is an example which works for me:
  

  _navigateTo("http://www.pms.ifi.lmu.de/mitarbeiter/ohlbach/multimedia/JAVASCRIPT/javascript2.html#1");
  _expectConfirm("Are you sure you are ok?",true);
  _click(_button("Click here>>"));
  _assertEqual("Good!",_lastAlert());

  Hi,
  
  I am using _expectConfirm(label, false) only. The example URL you gave works fine, but our app doesn't work.
  Here is my script.

  _uncheck(_checkbox("checkStatus",_near(_cell("testuser"))));
  _expectConfirm("Do you want to deactivate  the  testuser user account?", false);
  _assertEqual("Do you want to deactivate  the  testuser user account?",_lastAlert());
  

  When playback, it select "Ok" and deactivates the user instead of selecting Cancel. Also it failed the assertion even though the alert mentioned in script is correct. If i don't user the assertion the script will show as passed.
  Here is what the log shows.
  
  Starting script
  _uncheck(_checkbox("checkStatus",_near(_cell("testuser")))); at Jan 19, 2012 10:42:45 AM
  _expectConfirm("Do you want to deactivate the testuser user account?", false); at Jan 19, 2012 10:42:45 AM
  _assertEqual("Do you want to deactivate the testuser user account?",_lastAlert());
  Assertion Failed.
  Expected:[Do you want to deactivate the testuser user account?]
  Actual:[null] at Jan 19, 2012 10:42:55 AM
  Stopping script
  
  I observed another thing. I think this could be the actual issue.
  From playback screen in the controller, after i the load page and selected the script name I pressed "Set" button. The page auto refreshed.
  After doing this, when I uncheck/check the check box manually also, it was directly deactivating/activating the user without showing the alert. So, i think during playback also it doesn't popup the alert and it directly does an "Ok" operation. That's why assertion also failed. Before doing a "set" popups are showing properly in the page.
  
  Is it a bug in the tool or I need to do something else to get it working?

  Anoop.

  Hi Anoop,
  
  You will have to use:
  
  _expectConfirm("Do you want to deactivate the testuser user account?", false); // should be mentioned before the confirm dialog is triggered.
  
  Therefore, try using:
  
  _expectConfirm("Do you want to deactivate the testuser user account?", false);
  _uncheck(_checkbox("checkStatus",_near(_cell("testuser"))));
  
  Check if this solves your issue.
  
  Also, during playback you cannot see the confirm dialog and therefore you can use _expectConfirm() API .

  Yes, that solved the problem of selecting Ok and Cancel. That is working fine now Thank you.
  
  If i want to assert the same confirmation alert can i use _lastAlert() ?
  _assertEqual("Do you want to deactivate the testuser user account?",_lastAlert());
  shows assertion failed. Assertion statement was given after the statement which triggers the confirm dialog.
  
  Also if use a wrong alert (which is not present in the app) in _expectConfirm() the script doesn't fail, it will select "ok" by default (if the _expectConfirm statement not present also). Is that the expected behavior?

  Hi Anoop,
  
  This is for your information:
  
  _expectConfirm() should be mentioned before the confirm dialog is triggered and the assertEqual should be given after the confirm dialog is triggered as you will be asserting on the confirm dialog's message.
  
  If the message in the confirm dialog is wrong then the script will fail. In the above example mentioned by me works fine for a wrong message in the confirm dialog.
  
  Could you please point us to an example so that i can help you to come out of this issue.

  The way of using _expectConfirm() before the triggering event is clear to me. Thanks.
  
  Now about using a wrong confirmation message _expectConfirm().
  Lets consider the same example you have pointed out. Here I have used a wrong alert message in the script, still the script is 100% pass for me.
  

  _navigateTo("http://www.pms.ifi.lmu.de/mitarbeiter/ohlbach/multimedia/JAVASCRIPT/javascript2.html#1");
  _expectConfirm("Wrong alert message entered here?",true);
  _click(_button("Click here>>"));
  _assertEqual("Good!",_lastAlert());
  

  
  Here is the log
  
  Starting script
  _navigateTo("http://www.pms.ifi.lmu.de/mitarbeiter/ohlbach/multimedia/JAVASCRIPT/javascript2.html#1"; at Jan 19, 2012 12:37:55 PM
  _expectConfirm("Wrong alert message entered here?",true); at Jan 19, 2012 12:37:55 PM
  _click(_button("Click here>>")); at Jan 19, 2012 12:37:56 PM
  _assertEqual("Good!",_lastAlert()); at Jan 19, 2012 12:37:56 PM

  Hi Anoop,
  
  Could you try with the following code:
  

  _navigateTo("http://www.pms.ifi.lmu.de/mitarbeiter/ohlbach/multimedia/JAVASCRIPT/javascript2.html#1");
  _expectConfirm("Wrong alert message entered here?",true);
  _assertEqual("Good!",_lastAlert());
  _click(_button("Click here>>"));
  

  
  Check if this solves your issue.

  Hi Sumitra,
  
  The issue which i was trying is resolved when i used the _expectConfirm before the triggering event as u suggested.
  
  I was tying to understand handling a wrong confirmation message used in _expectConfirm as script was not failing just because of the reason that the alert is wrong. In your above post script fails because the _assertEqual statement is given before the click event where as the alert will be displayed only after the click.
  In future if the confirm alert in the webpage changes, the script won't fail for that reason.
  
  I overcame this situation by adding one more assert using _lastConfirm() API to get the script failed if the confirm alert is different. Now it works fine.
  Thanks for helping.

  Anoop
