Handle Browser Authentication PopUp

Many times we troubleshoot to encounter “Authentication Popups Window” during Web Application Automation or Web services automation using selenium.It’s pretty simple & tricky.

•        Web Application:-  We can generally handle this with the below 2 approaches.

1.      Pass the username and password in URL itself

Example :-  Suppose Username :- Test, Password :- Test123 & URL :- http://www.test.com

Syntax :-  http://[Username]:[Password]@[URL]

    http://Test:Test123@www.test.com

2.      You can create an AutoIT Script and call script before opening the URL.

•               Web Services:-  The approach is same as mentioned in section 1 of “Web Application”. Only  difference – Instead of URL we use end point in case of web services.
