Hi,

Hi,

Nope. It seems this cannot be tested since the javascript popups are browser specific an ServiceNow client test runner won't be able to detect this

Mark ✅ Correct if this solves your issue and also mark 👍 Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.
Thanks

The only way I have been able to work around this is to build in atf into the design of the catalog item or code. This way you can use a test step to set a hidden value and bypass the thing that is blocking you.

For example we have a variable set called "ATF Bypass" that we add to our catalog items when we want atf to bypass prompts. We then update any client scripts to check for the atf_bypass variable. Finally make sure atf has a step to set the atf_bypass flag.
