I'm writing a program to automatically book a desk in my library using chromedriver. I'm looping through all seats looking for one that isn't booked already, then using
driver.find_element(By.XPATH, xpath).click()
on both starting and ending time to book the seat. After clicking, there can be different alerts that can pop up, confirming the booking or pointing out an issue. These alerts disappear after a few seconds. I'm trying to use the text of the pop up to verify whether the booking has been successful or not.
So far, I've tried this:
try:
WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.alert_is_present)
alert = driver.switch_to.alert
text = alert.text
if "some Text" in text:
print("Booking successful")
elif "some other text" in text:
print("booking not successful")
except:
print("no alert")
However, the alert does not get recognized, I always get "no alert".
This is how the alerts looks like:
<div data-notify="container" class="col-xs-11 col-sm-4 alert alert-success animated fadeInDown" role="alert" data-notify-position="top-center" style="display: inline-block; margin: 0px auto; position: fixed; transition: all 0.5s ease-in-out 0s; z-index: 5000; top: 20px; left: 0px; right: 0px;">
<button type="button" aria-hidden="true" class="close" data-notify="dismiss" style="position: absolute; right: 10px; top: 5px; z-index: 5002;"> × </button>
<span data-notify="icon"> </span>
<span data-notify="title"></span>
<span data-notify="message"> Booking successful. </span>
<a href="#" target="_blank" data-notify="url"> </a>
</div>
