Handling the popup ad's in e-commerce website

Question

Currently I am working on a e-commerce website. When I visit the site for first time they are displaying a popup, like discounts or signup etc... while writing my scripts I wrote code for waiting for the popup and closing the popup. But after some days the developers removed the popup ad's. So now my script is failing too find the popup as per coding. How can I handle such a scenario?

Answer 1

you can write a code to find out if pop is present or not, based on that follow the next steps. your code may look like this.

public boolean popupPresent(driver) {
boolean foundElement = false;
try {
    WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 20);
    // here your code for finding out the popup
     foundElement = true;
    }
    catch(Exception error) {
    foundElement = false;
    }
    return foundElement;
    }

Then call this function and perform the action.

boolean popupPresent = popupPresent(driver);

if(popupPresent) {
// code to close your popup.
}
