I could see it's a modal.

Did you try to use Click Component (Custom UI) step?

You need to retrieve the HTML elements and then only you can tell ATF what to click.

where are you stuck?

Hi Buddy,

ATF can’t reliably “see” buttons inside a custom modal with the normal Click component step, so the usual way to automate this is to click it with a client-side script.

In your ATF test, add a step like Run Client Script and click the Yes button from the DOM, for example:

// click the visible "Yes" button in the open modal
var yesBtn = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('button, a, input'))
  .find(el => ((el.innerText || el.value || '').trim().toLowerCase() === 'yes') &&
              (el.offsetWidth || el.offsetHeight || el.getClientRects().length));

if (yesBtn) yesBtn.click();

That will close the confirmation automatically with no manual involvement.

If you can change the UI, the best long-term fix is to add something stable like an id or data-testid to the Yes button (ex: data-testid="confirm-yes"), then ATF can click it directly without guesswork.

It would be helpful if you could share a working example of this using Run Client Script step which you mentioned along with screenshots

I couldn't find that step in ATF.
