How to do it using Selenium ?

Answer 1

I am assuming you are using the Selenium WebDriver.

// Get a handle to the open alert, prompt or confirmation
Alert alert = driver.switchTo().alert();
// Get the text of the alert or prompt
alert.getText();  
// And acknowledge the alert (equivalent to clicking "OK")
alert.accept();
