To Reproduce
I prep 2 simple files to easily reproduce an issue. Create new folder and copy 2 files content ex. to c:/alert_demo, then run start CMDs
cd c:/alert_demo
robot -d example/1 -t Alert-Debug example.robot
- 1 file (index.html) - example page with 2 consecutive alerts (one alert after another)
<html lang="pl">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Multiple alerts issue - example</title>
</head>
<body>
<button onclick="showAlerts()">Click to show alerts</button>
<script>
function showAlerts() {
confirm("First alert accepted?");
alert("Second alert!");
}
</script>
</body>
</html>- 2 file (example.robot) - steps followed to reproduce an issue.
